The ads show up during loading, though only last about as long as the loading screen itself.<\/p>\n<p>A number of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/NBA2k\/comments\/jdy3z0\/nba2k_unskippable_ingame_ads\/\" rel=\"noopener\" >Reddit users<\/a> reported the issue this morning, sharing their dismay that ads exist at all in a premium, $60 game (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vg247.com\/2020\/07\/02\/nba-2k21-will-cost-you-10-more-on-ps5-and-xbox-series-x\/\" >$70 on PS5 and Xbox Series X<\/a>) that&rsquo;s already stuffed to the brim with microtransactions.<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eX2p8fGv0t4?feature=oembed\" alt=\"Please accept cookies to see this iframe.\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stevivor.com\/news\/nba-2k21-inserts-unskippable-ads-pre-game-loading-screens\/\" rel=\"noopener\" >Stevivor<\/a> verified that the ads play on all platforms, across PC, PS4 and Xbox One. The ad the site got was one for the Oculus Quest 2 VR headset. It played before episode seven of MyTEAM Season 2, an in-game TV show that plays before the match.<\/p>\n<p>Players have to wait for the ad to finish before they can press continue and get on. If you&rsquo;re thinking this sounds familiar, it&rsquo;s because 2K Games also added unskippable ads with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/NBA2k\/comments\/c3pcr7\/unskippable_ads_in_a_60_game_fuck_you_2k\/\" >NBA 2K20<\/a> &ndash; last year&rsquo;s game &ndash; sometime after launch.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, EA also tried a similar move with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vg247.com\/2020\/09\/06\/ea-removes-game-ads-ufc-4\/\" >UFC 4 just last month<\/a>, before the publisher was forced to pull the ads in response to some very negative feedback. Their implementation in UFC 4 was arguably worse, given how they played during in-match replays.<\/p>\n<p>For now, it looks like business as usual for NBA 2K and its players, however unfavourable the move may be.<\/p>\n<p>NBA 2K21 is out now on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
