NBA 2K25 Gameplay Breakdown: Top 10 NEW Things on 2K25

[@chefjosephkowles575]

It’s that time of the year where 2k labs actually makes relevant videos 😂

[@classicstyle5975]

Facts 😂

[@ivboneheadvi]

Nah this is actually looking pretty good?? Did 2k actually put a hint of effort on this one

[@XTayeK]

That Steph movement OMG🔥

[@madeinnola]

& d fox

[@yt_eli2643]

Much better den 24 it’s wild

[@raiderjedi4160]

I’m definitely putting my perimeter defense on 99 again, was clamping all of high dribble builds last year

[@RockyFresh1]

This the first video ive seen where 2k25 actually looks diff from 24 the dribbling for sure looks different🔥

[@ovojdabanks210]

yaadman gaming did a side by side comparison doing the same moves with ja from that leaked vid

[@TwanBankz]

@@ovojdabanks210which video fam ? (what video does yaadman make that comparison)

[@moxe647]

@@TwanBankzhe’s chatting sh*t, this game looks nothing like 2k24

[@TwanBankz]

@@moxe647 i found the vid he was talking abt , but anyway the games do have similar dribbles/ graphics but overall the aesthetic of 2k25 looks different

[@moxe647]

@@TwanBankz yea similar graphics cause it’s the same engine. But outside of that I don’t see many similarities…

[@Rakwonellis]

I like the fact there’s not a force field around dribblers anymore ; too many kids get bailed out with dribbling too recklessly

[@tidepods2004]

Have you played 24? You can’t chainment effectively without getting plucked That’s why people are using pro cross, Lebron step back, l2 canceling

[@AbitCoD]

Lmao, u must have been trash on 24 to say that, the worst year for dribbling control

[@Rakwonellis]

@@AbitCoD No clearly you where trash to say that it was the worst year lol ; I’m speaking on people loosely putting the ball on the side I’m on too many times without consequences

[@Rakwonellis]

@@tidepods2004 I’m speaking on dribbling IQ itself not the animations ; real life dribbling is keeping the ball away sometimes 2k just let mfs dribble on the same side you on with no consequences

[@Applypressure223]

In 2k24 you got plucked as soon as you even did a size up cross against those 91 steal builds it was annoying asf and made it hard to do chain combos hopefully ball security has been improved no one should be plucking the ball that much especially if you have a high ball handle

[@mjrkidsvids7899]

Looks smooth. My bet is ppl will complain about steals being OP in the 1st week

[@ericthomas8624]

Hell yeah they are!! legend clamps and glove coming to all my opps.

[@raiderjedi4160]

@@ericthomas8624bro, I make a 6’3 guard with 99 perimeter and these dudes can never understand why they can’t get past me

[@Gangsterlife333]

2:17 YESS rip ball hog cheesers!

[@On3MOr3]

That’s good no more 🦀 crabby patty

[@raemonrivera8071]

Good!!! Now the cheesers are gonna get heavily exposed and naturally they’re jump on X and ask for a nerf😂😂

[@noel4140]

That Luka hesi into a step back three at the beginning looked SMOOTH. Did not look clunky at all almost life like

[@GKid9]

People saying it’s gonna get boxed just don’t know when to do the right moves, shit looks 🔥

[@HampETX903]

It looks pretty good everyone looks small but that doesn’t really matter

[@JayMacTV2K]

Yessir I made a 2k Labs Video! Mama We Made It!

[@ovocow9512]

Game looks much better from last year. Anyone claiming it's the same thing as last year is refusing to let go of bias. Try and play EAs Madden 25 right now and come back and let me know how blessed we are with 2K. Ya'll really don't know how bad it can get.

[@applecidervinegar329]

Yeah just ask Madden players how great EA is. 2k at least listens and has shown progress...

[@SirNxgroUnChained]

Damn near sound like you got paid to say this 😂 Wanting a truly better and improved product isnt being biased, moreso than wanting to truly get what we paid for.

[@kardevian6]

All these sports games be the same

[@j-flashm297]

Game looks the exact same cut the nonsense. If you’re being paid get your money but people aren’t stupid. 2k has died off in the last 4 years the only people still playing are just brainwashed 2k heads. The player base has gone to shit😂. Numbers don’t lie.

[@Topolinho]

Just watch Joe Knows's video. All the glitchy animations are the exact same (D Book layup, Bron stepback, Patty Mills, Body to body scoops etc), Contest system is still horrible and all the "new" animations are just visually appealing vs the AI but won't ever work online.

[@UNDGT]

I can't lie, the crossover are definitely upgraded. I just wish it look more realistic from the camera angles like live looks. More detailed arena

[@JamiuzsLive]

still can’t believe they would give us rivet back like this

[@GraffitiGamingg]

LMFAOO 2:15 And someone tried to tell me on twitch, “defense looks so trash” when watching Joe Knows breakdown 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@chrishines45]

The Posting is much better from last year Game, it’s more simple to post up which makes it more Realistic while learning to pass out of a Double Team.

[@AreYouFNQRAZII]

That Luka Hesi example is literally the “Basic” Sig Hesitation Animation in 24 with turbo, all you do is shoot after the Hesi for the same Psuedo Stepback look.😕

[@creepytoast23]

Dribbling looks legit real good now. Also, my biggest gripe being floor spacing looks so much better now. Hopefully the AI teammates also don't run in your way as you drive the lane like they constantly used to do.

[@Kingjay19]

Dribbling at 0.59 loook scaryyyy

[@HESY]

W 2K labs!!!

[@chrishines45]

The Graphics of the Courts and the Rim looks more Realistic than 2K24, I like how every Player has their own Movements & Shot selection.

[@HVH777]

Faster jump shots + bad connections = more offensive rebounds 😌

[@3fanAI]

The sigs go to shots look 🔥. That luka looks realistic

[@jerrodpicard-schooley1292]

Bigs have faster jumpers than last year is all I needed to hear to be honest

[@IsDatJC]

koza so tuff man😂😂

[@MNPhantom]

Everybody got something to bitch about but we better all agree that curry clip is fuckin fire

[@jaquannsylvester9713]

I hate guarding cheesers as much as anyone but there’s no point in having size ups animations if we are just gonna fumble the ball in front a defender

[@SUNRAKU23]

Finally a new fresh 2k, this is hands down the biggest improvement since next gen

[@calypsoseraph]

Loving how the defense is looking

[@ollie1178]

So glad this is on pc, 2k14 lighting and an Anthony Edwards face scan and I’m set

[@domsee1053]

movements improve big time, but still not worth the price for it. just going to buy once its on sales next year

[@ryanm4074]

bout time we see competent gameplay, the game looks fire in the right hands but still not pre-ordering, knowing they'll patch the fun out of the game will help save money

[@Travie_Law]

Thank you for including some good information on defense.

[@AbitCoD]

The left stick crossover needs to stay in 2k14.

[@delroynathan7794]

RIP to all those messy dribblers that spam moves and jack up contested 3pt shots. Biggest improvement is the new size of the courts

[@T-W-M]

That Curry dribbling was so smooth

[@Cactus_Aka_Zues]

I don't know. The gameplay looks more realistic, yet it seems more sluggish 💯

[@AkodoGarou]

FINALLY! FUCKING REAL Bumps and not that BS of someone just dribbling clearly into me and nothing being done!

[@ayoooglock4185]

If you like to dribble or want to get. Into it this the year. The SPACING is telling you this gone to be ISO YEAR..get yall fingers ready

[@SociaLightConsulting]

The basketball looks too big 4:34

[@oreoten8283]

Agreed

[@SeedOilFitnessOfficial]

that could be a reason for the new bump steals too

[@SociaLightConsulting]

@@SeedOilFitnessOfficial that and the fact that they made the player models smaller instead of making the courts bigger for more spacing. Typical 2k to forget to adjust the actual ball 🏀 😂

[@mitchabasket2428]

Player models are smaller

[@tintinac15]

The courts are bigger in 2k25​@@SociaLightConsulting

[@SnagSports]

Does anyone know what the min number for contact dunks will be (driving dunk)

[@STAMPEDFRESH]

No more dribbling into defenders!! Finally!

[@vettobuns7048]

Is there some new that u would like to be in 25 that they didnt say would be in the game

[@Damian-xo1cw]

straight to the point, thx

[@martyschwartzhere9290]

Lockdowns are going to have a field day in this game oh my god.

[@HonorableOne2021]

How is snthony edwards looking?

[@TILLHOUSE]

Aye! The guys are on it though

[@grantjohnstongolf9123]

What camera view is that?

[@zenjirou5315]

They did bronny dirty making him look lost on defense 😂

[@Hproawesome]

did the player look smaller or the court size is bigger?😂

[@matthew9739]

Any news on the jumpers we still limited to what we can use because that imo is a fat L

[@WestCoastCheeseHead]

What game engine are they running on? no way this is any version of Unreal Engine

[@chrisroberts3314]

Bring the percentage on contest back wtf

[@nfdaguru9693]

The steals is really bad news for me

[@billywonka2469]

They made Luka thin 😂

[@TheHippyFarmer]

And Mike Wang patches before the game releases, making the videos we see useless, it's going to be a long year 😢

[@Delan340]

Steph saucy as hell😭

[@585lynch]

The game actually looks pretty good I’m still on the fence abt defending but I’m still getting it on sale like I do every year buy it on cdkeys 2k not getting my money

[@ozgaming8629]

That was a travel from Doncic 😁

[@pluto2k]

2:27 i promise you guys within the first week or 2 this WILL BE patched. way too many people are gonna be turning the ball over to bs whether or not it’s realistic. it’s gonna be a repeat of 2k24 season 1

[@derricklindsey140]

Not gone lie that do look a little crazy a little too easy to take. But I’m open to the learning curve.

[@waff6ix]

NOT WEMBY SPEEDBOOSTING😳😳

[@youngnick1800]

Damn I wish I knew how to dribble man that shit so hard to me

[@tank4150]

So 6’8 can’t play center?

[@F0ALIE]

koza just does something to me

[@LightCombat00-ej6em]

wait a minute... that shit luka did in slow mo was TRAVEL

[@The0nlyy]

Why so many audio cuts?

[@ProfessorWFS]

I have subbed

[@stephenwong8053]

what if the movement the same they just gave us 120 fps tho :p

[@marcelcollins8475]

Cuh the brought real life hesi pulls into 2k

[@Eskeletor_210]

Does this mean I can finally disrupt the ball handler with my center and not get blown by

[@minovictor]

Anyone saying it’s the same only used 2 moves on 24

[@rodplays3726]

Do yall know who this guy is ive been sub for years since when bro voice gotten deep

[@halmond2075]

The Murray Murray is dead 😂😂 bums who thought they could dribble will Struggle

[@derricklindsey140]

Probably added some more dribble cheese to the game tbh

[@kaiserpinaii6128]

we going to ignore luka travel?

[@1kev.215]

👀 the movement looks good

[@platanoman8913]

Why is everyone so tiny

[@jrway2cold]

W 🔥

[@sosah4277]

Looks wack let’s go back to 17 or 19 even 20 I’d take

[@CanaldoTKOficial]

Continua deslizando pra caramba, esse motor gráfico dá 2k é uma porcaria

[@bqproductions7448]

Some of these gameplay clips look like all the animations are speed boosting unnaturally and all these content creators are crying that there is no speed boosting. This entire game and community mindset is wac af.

[@Sachethe55YT]

Look the same

[@KayanoWorld]

If is see 1 more 2k25 video, I’m refunding the damn game! Let people experience it, PLEASE!
