NBA The Run, a new arcade-style basketball game, is scheduled for release on June 9, aiming to capture the spirit of the classic NBA Street series. The development team includes an artist who worked on the original NBA Street titles, promising a familiar yet fresh experience for fans.
The game focuses on fast-paced, 3v3 basketball action, moving away from simulation. Players will navigate a "Knockout Tournament" across global courts, culminating in boss battles on special final courts. Multiple game modes will be available, including Knockout Squads, Solos, and Friends for custom tournaments.
NBA The Run allows players to choose from fictional characters or a roster of over 30 real NBA players, such as Steph Curry and Luka Dončić. The game originated in 2024 as "The Run: Got Next" before Play by Play Studios secured the official NBA license. It will be available for $30 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam, with a Deluxe Edition priced at $40.
