NBA Playgrounds is coming to consoles next month. The
game is a return to the arcade-style basketball games of yesterday,
like NBA Street and NBA Jam. Officially licensed by the NBA, the game
features players both active and retired, with Allen Iverson facing off
against modern ballers Steph Curry and George Hill in the opening of the
trailer. Every NBA team is featured in NBA Playgrounds, and the
"roster of current and retired" players can be leveled-up. Keeping
inline with its arcade-style roots, Playgrounds features "hundreds of
over-the-top dunks and moves." Playgrounds can be played solo, local-multiplayer, or "against the world" online. Developed
by Saber Interactive, CEO Matt Karch calls it accessible enough for
anyone to pick up and play, but it still has "a lot of depth for
hardcore pros who’ve mastered their game." The
return of high-flying, cartoonish arcade basketball hits Nintendo
Switch, PC, PS4 and Xbox One next month as a digital-download for $20
USD. (ign)
