NBA 2K21 with advertisements during the game. The game at the next-gen price, with microtransactions, received spots

–

NBA 2K21 is a production that debuted over a month ago. Since then, the creators of Visual Concepts have paid special attention to the novelties that future owners of next-genes will experience: significant changes in the design of the PS4 and PS5 versions of the game, and special use of the DualSense controller. The latest content discovered by players, however, can be quite controversial.

As it turns out Ads appear while loading NBA 2K21 – the material below shows the spot promoting Oculus Quest 2. Only after watching the movie lasting about 15 seconds, the players move on to the rest of the game. As PushSquare points out, last year’s virtual basketball enthusiasts faced a similar inconvenience. The appearance of ads is so surprising that players pay the full and higher price for a production that has microtransactions, while the creators and publisher decide to present additional materials. The spots have not been available since the premiere.

The presented fragment of the game comes from PS4, so questions about the next-genes version automatically arise. As we know, both the new generation of Sony and Microsoft will offer reduced loading times, so will basketball fans using the PS5 or Xbox Series X | S be forced by the creators to read such ads? We will have to wait for the answer to this question.

We would like to remind you that some time ago, EA faced a lot of criticism, which also added spots to UFC 4. After very negative feedback, the publisher decided to remove any ads.
