NBA 2k17 release date: USA Dream Team of 1992 can be played with a special code

NBA 2K17 - Dream Team Take-Two Interactive

2K Sports has recently released a NBA 2k17 trailer showcasing the USA Dream Team of 1992 and the current USA team who are vetting for the gold this Olympics 2016 in Rio.

Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson were remembered to have brought gold for the USA on the 1992 Summer Olympics. The recent 2016 USA Basketball Men's National Team in this year's Olympics includes Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, Kyrie Irving, Jimmy Butler, Kyle Lowry, DeMar DeRoza, DeAndre Jordan, DeMarcus Cousins, Paul George, Klay Thompson, Harrison Barns, and Draymond Green who are currently on their way to grab another win for the USA.

The trailer starts with the players of the dream teams of 1992 and 2016 lined up on the court while the USA's national anthem is playing in the background. It then converges to different clips of players performing on court and capturing their expressions via slow motion effects which added to the flare of the expressive singing of the national anthem.

The trailer hinted that a feature of the game allows the gamer to get to play as the Dream Team of 1992 and have a match against the Olympic team of 2016. However, this feature is only available if consumers pre-order NBA 2k17 as that roster is available as a pre-order bonus. If gamers pre-order the game, they will be given a special code that will unlock the special line-up of the 1992 Dream Team which includes Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, Larry Bird, John Stockton, Magic Johnson, Patrick Ewing, Chris Mullin and David Robinson.

The game's graphics is also noticeably better than its last installment as 2K continuously improved their adaptation of each player's facial and body features making it closer to their actual appearance as ever.

NBA 2k17 will be released on September 20 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360.
