NBA 2K27 Teases GTA 6 Crossover Of Some Kind

2K Sports has released a new trailer for NBA 2K27 that includes a reference to GTA 6, prompting speculation about a potential crossover. The Season 1 trailer showcases upcoming content for Season 1 while also offering hints regarding Seasons 2 and 3. Specifically, the imagery and styling for Season 3 plainly reference GTA 6 through its choice of palm trees, font, and color scheme. Police sirens can also be heard in the footage as an additional nod.

While the video does not explicitly state when NBA 2K27's Season 3 will begin, it confirms that Season 2 is scheduled to start on October 16. Assuming historical length for the seasons, Season 3 could launch around the end of November, aligning closely with the reported release of GTA 6 on November 19. Take-Two owns both Rockstar and 2K.

This is not the first time basketball and GTA 6 have been connected. A previous gameplay leak showed main character Jason dribbling and shooting hoops at his house, leading to speculation that basketball could feature as a minigame.

NBA 2K27 is scheduled to launch into early access on August 26 for players who preordered premium editions, with a full unlock for everyone following on September 4.
