NBA 2K22 Season 3 'Iced Out' Details

So, what can fans expect from Season 3 of NBA 2K22? Well, a new Courtside Report has all the details, and there's a lot to digest.

Season 3 is all about having the ice in your veins to be that 'clutch' player and win the game for your team in the most intense situations. Alongside new rewards and a complete Christmas overhaul, Season 3 includes the all-new 'Clutch Time' game mode.

The upcoming Multiplayer Mode takes place in the final moments of a game, where you and your opponent start tied with 5 minutes on the clock. To make things even more intense, there's a 14-second shot clock.

If the game ends in a tie, the two players will go into sudden-death overtime, where the next player to score wins.

Season 3 is also filled with new MyTEAM Rewards such as the first Galaxy Opal player, as well as festive basketballs, jerseys, and courts. Get all the details on the next Season of NBA 2K22 on the game's official website.
