Update 2: Visual Concepts has confirmed via tweet that the patch is prep for Season 8, so don’t expect any patch notes, folks!

Update: Visual Concepts has announced that Season 8 starts July 1, which means this patch is centered around that. While we’ve included the details regarding Season 8 below, the devs have not issued an update yet on whether there are gameplay-related changes included in today’s title update roll out.

NBA 2K22 Season 8 honors Shaq’s legendary combination of raw athleticism and finesse that dominated from coast to coast, showing fans that greatness is earned, not given. This Season also introduces many exciting new updates to MyCAREER and MyTEAM. More updates include:

  • MyCAREER introduces new courts, new apparel, new rewards, and more. Players who reach Level 30 can zip around The City and Cancha Del Mar in an all-new Slime Skin for their Go-Karts, and Level 40 players can dash through MyCAREER in a brand new pair of Dash2K I winged shoes. Additionally, players can deck themselves out in Season 8’s all-gold NBA Finals-themed gear, including Gold Goggles, Gold Basketball Jersey, Gold Long Shorts, Gold Arm Sleeve, Gold Hat, Gold Tee, and a Gold Suit;
  • MyTEAM this Season will focus on​​ some of the players who have made the biggest impact on the community over the last decade. Additionally, this Season adds End Game Jokic, Invincible Dr. J in Token Market, Invincible Dominique Wilkins as a reward for 2000 wins in Triple Threat, and more. Updates also include a Kobe and Shaq Pack at launch and brand new signature challenges centered around AI, Kobe, MJ, and LeBron. Lastly, a final Domination tier will be added to MyTEAM, where players can compete for End Game James Harden;
  • The W* features former WNBA stars-turned coaches in Sheri Sam and Taj McWilliams-Franklin. In Season 8, players can lean on their basketball expertise and knowledge to reach the Hall of Fame tier to be rewarded with their contacts, including a Takeover Perk Picker. Players can also earn 2K Breakthrough Gear, an Extra Point Badge, 4,000 total VC, a Seasonal Clothing Bundle, and exclusive W Gear.

As per the norm, Visual Concepts has yet to release the official patch notes, and we don’t expect that to be released until the afternoon (Pacific Time), which is par for the course for the studio.

As for the recent updates on social media, we do know that Season 7: Return of Heroes will be ending this Friday:

The latest patch released before this one was to prep for Season 7, which was released on May 19. Read on here for the gameplay-related improvements included in that title update.

We’re checking the game’s subreddit to see if there are any noticeable gameplay-related changes, and once we find any, we’ll update the post.  If you notice anything, be it technical or gameplay-related, leave a comment below to let us know. Could this be tied to the Golden State Warriors’ wining the chip this year? We’ll know later on in the day.
