NBA 2K14 Release Date Sale Competition Between PS4, Xbox One? Microsoft To Release Next-Generation Console Version Of Game On Nov. 19

NBA 2K14 will be released next Tuesday, Nov. 19, on Xbox One, publisher 2K Sports announced today just a few days before the launch of the Microsoft console, Polygon.com reports, leaving many wondering if it is trying to compete with the PS4 version of the game.

NBA 2K14 developer Visual Concepts has redesigned the game for next-generation consoles; it's not a better-looking port of the current-generation version, Polygon.com also reports.

NBA 2K14's next-generation versions will allow players to become frustrated and choke during gameplay.

"For example if a player is using Carmelo Anthony and decides to hog the ball another player could then become frustrated, lose focus and not be as efficient in later games," the website writes.

"Until Carmelo starts sharing the ball, problems will continue until it's finally corrected. Events that trigger these emotional fluctuations don't have to be as dramatic as the afore mentioned either. Players can get discouraged if they disagree with referee calls or miss too many shots."

NBA 2K14 senior producer Rob Jones said he wants the game to set the next-generation gaming bar higher, leaving gamers wondering if it will surpass NBA Live 14 in the game's Playstation 4 and Xbox One versions.

"When we built this, we built it with, 'We want to make the game look as real as it's ever been, and give [players] a gameplay experience that matches it.' And that's what we aimed for," he said, according to Polygon.
