NBA 2K23 Flash Forwards release date
The Flash Forwards cards will be entering NBA 2K23 on Friday, 6 January. We expect them to be live in-game at around 8 am PT / 11 am ET / 4 pm GMT.
Flash Forwards will replace the Fireworks promo with packs in the store. The reason these players a causing quite the hype train in the community is that they tend to have ridiculously busted abilities and animations that make them impossible to deal with as a defender.
In previous 2K titles, these legends have been some of the most anticipated cards and can sell for crazy numbers in the auction house.
