My NBA 2K17 for Android

App snapshot

NBA2K17’s companion app, MyNBA2K17, brings elements of the PS4/Xbox One experience to your phone, letting you stay connected to the game while away from your console. The app packs both console-linked features and standalone mobile modes so you can keep playing — whether you’re at home or on the move.

Seamless console link

MyNBA2K17 syncs directly with the NBA2K17 console game for a continuous experience. Progress, virtual items, and certain purchases made on the app can be applied to the full game, so activities you do on your phone can influence your console play. Fans of the previous MyNBA2K16 will find many familiar elements retained, which makes transitioning between versions quick and straightforward.

Face capture improvements

• Mobile face scanning: Use your smartphone camera to scan your face and map it onto a created player in-game, avoiding the need for additional hardware.
• Simpler setup: The scanning process has been refined for modern phone cameras and is easier than earlier solutions that required a PlayStation Camera or Kinect.

Card-based mobile gameplay

MyTEAM Mobile returns as a core standalone mode, letting you build rosters from past and present NBA players and compete online.

• Auction House access: Buy and sell cards with other users to refine your lineup.
• Tournament and match options: Jump into short matches or join longer competitions to test your team.
• Expanded 2016–17 card pool: Over 300 new cards for the season, plus additional legendary and historical players.

In-app economy and store

• MyPLAYER Store items: Purchase cosmetic and gameplay items that can be used on the console version.
• Virtual currency: Earn or buy in-game currency to spend on card packs, upgrades, and other app offerings.

Interface and usability

The app’s layout remains largely consistent with last year’s release, keeping navigation straightforward for returning users while remaining approachable for newcomers. Menus and modes are organized to allow quick access to face scanning, MyTEAM, and store functions without a steep learning curve.

Final thoughts

MyNBA2K17 keeps the NBA 2K experience active when you’re away from your console. Between console synchronization, improved face-mapping from your phone, and a robust card-collection mode, the app provides meaningful ways to continue your progress and enjoy basketball gaming on the go.
