Developer Visual Concepts has released another patch for NBA 2K26, which is the game’s third update since it launched. Same as with the previous updates, there are no gameplay changes made with the September 11 patch, as the developers are still monitoring games across various modes before deciding on making significant changes.
This patch is developer version 1.3, with console gamers seeing it as NBA 2K26 update 1.005 (complete version 01.005.000), and sadly, most NBA 2K patches are big downloads even if they don’t house new content.
Read on for everything new that got fixed in today’s patch.
