NBA 2K22 has been added a new feature that players can now pursue side careers, including hip-hop.

According to sources, MyCAREER for NBA 2K22 on next-gen consoles (PS5 and Xbox Series X|S) will just focus on basketball, but also “side ventures” that can act as a secondary career for players. 2K is yet to explicitly detail these ventures, but reports claim that players can dive into the fashion or music industries, allowing them to become fashion and rap moguls while being the best player in the league.

This news arrives about a week after it was announced that Candace Parker, Luka Doncic, Kevin Durant, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Dirk Nowitzki would be the cover stars for NBA 2K22. Parker will be the first woman to grace an NBA 2K cover. In a statement she made the day her cover was announced, Parker, a WNBA legend, recognized the importance of the moment.

“The cover of NBA 2K is such a pivotal platform to inspire young ballers, and I wanted future WNBA stars to know that they can be cover athletes too,” Parker said in a statement regarding the news. “Representation matters, so this is a special moment of progress for the sport and the series. To be part of this historic cover is a testament to the growth and rising popularity of the women’s game, and I’m proud to be the first female cover athlete to be the face of NBA 2K.”

Cover athlete Luka Doncic also had some comments about being on such a special platform for fans. "Making the global cover of NBA 2K22 is special for me,” Doncic said during the unveiling. “I’m proud to represent my country in a special cover that honors the colors of the Slovenian flag. Basketball has given me so much, and I’m excited to give back and work together with 2K Foundations this year to help the lives of young kids around the globe.”

Fans of NBA 2K have voiced their frustrations with the lack of change with the game over the last few years, and the company has tried to meet their needs. Hopefully, the new side careers can add some spice to the annual basketball video game.

MyCAREER won't be exclusively geared toward basketball in NBA 2K22. Side ventures can help players build professional profiles in other spaces, as well. While it hasn't yet been fully outlined what other careers will be available in NBA 2K22, a couple have been specifically detailed thus far. Players can expand into the fashion or music industry, for example, rising to success as a hip-hop star as well as a sports star. It sounds as though successes in these career paths will also have an impact on the home base in The City, which will evolve as players level up in other areas of business. As the official release date approaches, more details will undoubtedly be revealed about what other ambitions fans of the series will be able to work toward in NBA 2K22.
