Saber Interactive Announces More Free Content for NBA Playgrounds

Indie developer Saber Interactive today announced its arcade-style basketball game, NBA Playgrounds, has sold over 500,000 units across the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC since launching in May.

Saber has released multiple free updates for NBA Playgrounds already, with more expected by the end of summer. Another 33 new players will be added, including current stars such as J.R. Smith and Chris Paul, dominators from recent eras like Baron Davis and Tim Duncan, old-school legends Jerry West and Elgin Baylor, and even some modern-day sports gaming YouTubers like Agent 00 and Shake4ndBake. Packs will be better balanced to reduce the number of duplicates players open. Saber will also introduce a three-point contest mode with online play, a new rebounding system and fully functional friend invites to matches. These updates will arrive on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC first, followed by Nintendo Switch at a later date.
