Basketball, the NBA and the NBL are rocking Melbourne this weekend with Zion Williamson’s New Orleans Pelicans arriving in town for showdowns with the two Melbourne NBL teams, Melbourne United and the South East Melbourne Phoenix.
To celebrate the NBAxNBL Melbourne series, NBA 2K26 is hosting a series of experiences and displays at the House of 2K in Melbourne Park this week. From Thursday through Sunday, NBA fans can:
- Check out the NBA Retro Museum, where they will find some of the NBA’s most prized jerseys and items.
- Get your photo taken in front of a floor-to-ceiling collage of every NBA 2K cover, create your player profile, and a custom player card, which will be printed on-site to take home.
- Iconic moments in 2K can be relived with motion-controlled gaming on the PS3 Move.
- Enjoy all of the NBA 2K games from PS2 through to PS4, along with some retro gameplay on CRTs and retro consoles.
- Play the latest NBA 2K game on consoles you have or don’t have — try them all! Check out our review of it here.
