Leak indicates no demo for NBA 2K22

Some of the biggest news this year about NBA 2K22 has come through the @2KIntel account on Twitter, and their cover leaks and other details have all been spot on so far.

Sadly, their latest leak may be a disappointing one for some fans.

In a reply to that tweet, they showed a Q&A answer stating that 2K decided "not to release the demo version this year, but instead focus on creating fully-functional games of this generation and previous generations."

While a focus like that is good news, it means players will need to wait a bit longer to start playing NBA 2K22 when the release date arrives on September 10, 2021.

What can players expect without a demo

Instead of a NBA 2K22 demo this year, we could see more detailed reports from 2K about the game itself. This could be in the form of content creator reviews or reviews directly from the studio.

We have to remember that we're still waiting on a trailer for the game, which is only a month away. Soon we'll likely have more information and reveals on what to expect inside the game.

This also means that they're taking their time this year and trying to release a complete game. We can't blame them for taking extra steps to ensure satisfaction.
