Better ball
2K26 puts a significant effort to improve both sides of the floor, with significant offensive and defensive improvements. The modern machine learning technology helps to capture the basics of the game. During the game, I noticed that players run away and set their feet strongly instead of the gliding effect. Entering the paint, they would stop and react thoroughly to the defender on their belt. These details add realistic burden to sport.
Improved rhythm shooting
You can still move down on the right analog rod or simply press the square to start the shooting movement, and then snail-paced down at the right time to release the shoot of individual players. However, now the pace of art, as in real life, affects your shot. When a good defender delved me, I could quickly spend my shot and deliberately free him to the decisive bucket. Thanks to high IQ basketball, any shot can be a good shot.
Defensive battles
Players can exchange the game with their favor if the arrows do not fall, thanks to the modern improvements focused around the tactics in the real world. Around the player’s feet you will see modern feedback during the reflection as a green meter that will flash to indicate a good reception. Learning the time of reflection of Chet Holmgren meant that almost unbearable under the edge and focused on the aspect of the game, which I previously neglected.
Both collisions and internal defense apply renewed technology based on a system, which allows for more real -time interactions instead of Mocap animation. If you want to stop a quick break or press the line, players will stop, adapt, and even collide realistically. The game rewards paying attention to the action when the ball is not in your hand.
The atmosphere of the arena
DEVERS also updated the game spectacle during downtime and time limit with a modern variety of crowds, interactions and performances on the pitch. Cheerleaders and foolish mascot procedures are fun, but my favorite was a dance camera so far. These moments captured the sense of participation in the live game and the sense of community that a sports event can create.
ITEAM updates

Players are greeted with neon lights, fireworks and other details that can be appreciated only after dim.
