The Art Behind NBA 2K18

2K today released the first trailer for NBA 2K18, revealing major updates to the appearance of uniforms and the players themselves. The developers utilized brand new processes – including new photo techniques and laser scanning – to ensure even the smallest of details were captured to create a hyper-realistic experience. These upgrades include:

• Photo Techniques: The developers used new photo techniques with the ability to separate colors for more accurate player skin tones that react to light in true-to-life form.
• Uniforms: The team visited the NBA New York offices to laser scan each and every new Nike uniform and over 200 pairs of shoes to capture each detail, down to the stitches.
• MyPLAYER: The customization is like never before, with almost an unlimited amount of body types available and options to adjust and scale nearly every aspect of the athletes in game.
