An all new Pro-Am mode will be coming to "NBA Live 16" upon its release.

For Pro-Am mode, gamers can create a player they can use for either sub-mode or even the Rising Star mode in "NBA Live 16." The skill points that players obtain through Pro-Am mode or Rising Star mode can then be used to enhance the player either through skill refinement or changing the appearance.

There will be two sub-modes under Pro-Am mode, and those will be Live Run and Summer Circuit.

Starting off with Live Run, in this new game mode, players will be able to call up to nine more friends and start playing a pickup basketball game. Players can hoop it up in Live Run on numerous outdoor courts such as iconic Rucker Park in New York and Venice Beach in Los Angeles, according to Gamespot.

Summer Circuit offers a little bit of a twist in pickup basketball. In this mode, players will be able to team with up a friend, travel to different places, and take the court against NBA players. Summer Circuit will basically be "NBA Live 16's" very own co-op mode for players.

For those who want to see just exactly how the new Pro-Am mode will play, they will be glad to know that a demo of "NBA Live 16" will be coming out on Sept. 15.

While trying out Pro-Am mode in the demo, players can already get started on their progress through "NBA Live 16." Players who will level up in the Pro-Am mode offered in the demo will be able to carry that progress over to the game itself when it is released, according to Polygon.

Players can also try out Tip-Off mode in the demo for "NBA Live 16." In Tip-Off mode, players can use one of six NBA teams and take the court in an exhibition game against another team from the league.

"NBA Live 16" will be released on Sept. 29.
