NBA 2K15 is an installment in the 2K Sports NBA 2K series based on the 2014-2015 NBA season. The story follows your custom player as you try to prove yourself through short contracts and interactions with teams, coaches, and agents. The gameplay focuses on controlling your player, managing fatigue, and using strategy to outmaneuver opponents. The game also features RPG elements, such as a mentor system and upgrading your player's skills through endorsements and performance badges.
The MyPark mode is an online streetball mode where you compete against rival parks in cities across the country. You can upgrade your player's moves and earn virtual currency to spend on clothes or upgrades.
The game also features a management mode called MyGM, where you manage an entire team, including attracting new players, tracking their progress, and determining ticket prices. There are also modes like MySeason and MyTeam, where you design custom seasons and teams, and compete against other players.
During gameplay, the optional timer provides assistance to improve accuracy by taking into account your player's statistics, fatigue, distance, and positioning relative to the defending team.
The game features many new animations, a redesigned defensive AI, and more control over blocks, steals, and rebounding. The PS4 version also includes scanning technology using the Kinect or PlayStation Eye peripheral.
