PS4 and Xbox One
NBA 2K21 is a cross-platform game, meaning that you can play with or against friends regardless of what console they are using. The game is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC, so there are plenty of ways to get in on the action. Keep in mind that you will need to have an active PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live account in order to play online.
Nintendo Switch

The release date for the Switch version is September 6, 2021, which is later than the PS4, Xbox One, and PC release date of August 24, 2021. However, it’s worth noting that the Switch version will be a digital-only release, so if you want to play it on your Switch, you’ll need to buy it through the eShop.
