A lot of fans wondered why 2K23 wasn't a team cover featuring LeBron and MJ for the Legend edition? Did you guys consider LeBron?

I'm sure 23 jumps into everyone's heads, but I'm convinced that putting Jordan on an album cover was more of an announcement about the greatest athlete of all time . And we felt this was the most amazing 2K of all time and we wanted to make an assertion by putting Jordan on the cover. This year was the year of greatness and we thought Jordan was the move. We've collaborated with LeBron in past covers and we'll do so again. LeBron is a fantastic partner of ours, but it was always Jordan for us.

I'm sure the fans would like Kobe for 2K24. Are there any chances of this? Who knows? We're really excited about 2K23 today. Twenty-four years away isn't enough to be a bit distant, but we've had those conversations early, and we'll wait and see.At what point will you start to focus on the 2K2 that's coming up?
