In order to make sure you get all the bug fixes, roster updates and any other QoL updates that developer 2K Games rolls out, you’ll want to make sure you’re always running the latest version of NBA 2K23. That will sometimes require you to manually update the game yourself, depending on your console’s standby settings. In this guide, we’ll run you through exactly what you need to know to do just that.
