Participate in the NBA 2K23 MyTEAM Unlimited tournament with a $500,000 prize pool
Players have a chance to win up to $200,000 if they win one of two NBA 2K23 MyTEAM Unlimited tournaments taking place over the coming months. Here’s how to enter one of these two tournaments, each with a prize pool of $250,000, for a total of $500,000 in prizes this year.
There are two tracks for the NBA 2K23 MyTEAM Unlimited Tournament – one for each console generation (e.g. PS4, Xbox One and PS5, Xbox Series X). The annual tournament features four GameDays over the four seasons for NBA 2K23 MyTEAM, with anyone who owns a game copy eligible to enter the league*.
*Click here for full eligibility rules. The tournament is open to residents of the 50 United States and DC (excluding AZ, CT, MD, and ND), Australia, Canada (excluding Quebec), Chile, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Greater China, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, the Philippines, Portugal, Ireland, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand and Turkey, and entries submitted by (i) individuals who are not resident in the foregoing jurisdictions or (ii) other jurisdictions are not eligible for access.
Qualification Requirements
To be eligible to participate, players must first reach Emerald Tier in Unlimited during a season leading up to GameDays. Since there are four eligible GameDays, players have time to build their Unlimited squad over the next four seasons and catch up with those who have the cash to burn on their MyTEAM. However, remember that your Unlimited tier resets after the start of each season, so make sure to reach Emerald on each of the qualifying GameDays:
- Season 1 GameDay: October 15, 2022, 10:00 a.m. PT to 2:00 p.m. PT
- Season 2 GameDay: November 26, 2022, 10:00 a.m. PT to 2:00 p.m. PT
- Season 3 GameDay: January 7, 2023, 10:00 a.m. PT to 2:00 p.m. PT
- Season 4 GameDay: February 18, 2023, 10:00 a.m. PT to 2:00 p.m. PT
The four highest scoring participants for Xbox and the four highest scoring participants for PS for each GameDay on each Track (for a total of sixteen players for each GameDay) are eligible to participate in the Tournament for that Track. Please note that in order to participate, players must be able to play online. Playing on Xbox requires Xbox Gold Service subscription and PlayStation Plus Essentials subscription.
Once you reach Emerald Tier, you can participate in GameDay on any of the dates above by selecting the Tournament menu in MyTEAM within the competition periods. You have four entries to qualify for the Tournament, with the goal of achieving the highest score among all players in your Track and console generation. You will receive a score for each completed qualifying game of the games played during GameDay based on a combination of factors, including the quality of your squad, the quality of your opponent’s squad, and your performance in that game. Your total score will be locked at the end of that GameDay.
Winning entrants will be notified by March 4, 2023, 10:00 AM PT for Current Gen or March 5, 2023, 10:00 AM PT for Next Gen at 2K.
Tournament Brackets
The 64 players who qualify for the GameDays (i.e. 16 Xbox and 16 PS for each Track, for a total of 32 for Xbox and 32 for PS) will compete in a Tournament scheduled for March 4, 2023 (for Current Gen) and March 5, 2023 (for Next Gen) at 10:00 a.m. PT daily.
For each track, one tournament group consists of 16 players on Xbox and 16 players on PS. Players are required to play on the platform they used to qualify for GameDay, with the exception of Championship Finals played on the PS4 or the PS5. The champion of each tournament group is then named a Finalist and has a chance to take home the cash prize. The Xbox bracket winner will then compete against the PS bracket winner on a PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5, depending on the track, with both players already winning at least $50,000 in cash.
Prize pool
Each track has a prize pool of $250,000 for a total of $500,000 in prize money for the entire NBA 2K23 MyTEAM Unlimited tournament. In the Finals, the last two players from each lane have a chance to win the biggest prize in NBA 2K23.
- Champion – $200,000
- Second place – $50,000
What are you waiting for? Kick off the grind and build the best MyTEAM this season!
