As mentioned above, the NBA 2K26 Season 6 goes live on Friday, April 3, at around 8 am PT/4 pm GMT.

Season 6 brings a lot of new content to MyCAREER, MyTEAM, and The W. A plethora of unique rewards will be added to each game mode, a new Season Pass will be introduced, and even the iconic Old Town Park is returning to The City.

As usual, new cards will be added to MyTEAM, but these aren't your typical cards, as they have an anime art style that was hand-drawn.

These cards, along with other rewards such as packs, MT, and apparel, can be earned by progressing in the Season Pass. This season's level 40 reward is none other than 100 OVR Shaquille O’Neal.

Here are a few of the players in the Season 6 Season Pass:

  • Pink Diamond Ja Morant Evo (LVL 1)
  • Dark Matter Mike D’Antoni Coach (LVL 28)
  • Dark Matter Dark Matter Dennis Rodman (LVL 30)
  • 100 OVR Lisa Leslie. (LVL 35)
  • 100 OVR Shaquille O’Neal (LVL 40)

MyCAREER is also receiving plenty of rewards, with most of them being apparel, such as Orange Anime Hair, Cyborg Mods, and the beloved Toronto Raptors Mascot. As usual, there are also a few cap breakers and boots in the MyCAREER Season Pass.

Perhaps the biggest addition to MyCAREER, The City, to be more specific, is the return of the legendary Old Town Park, where players will once again be able to compete.

When it comes to The W, most rewards are also gear-related, such as the Sheryl Swoopes Jersey Dress or the Astronaut Helmet.

The WNBA is gearing up for its upcoming season, and NBA 2K26 Season 6 focuses on that as well, with rewards and challenges that fit that theme.
