Arcade-Style NBA Playgrounds is Out Now

May 9, 2017 by Jordan Coetsee

Grab for only $19.99.

If you are one of those nostalgic few who loved the days when video games were simple, quick and (extremely) frustrating – then make sure you give NBA Playgrounds a look. This classic arcade remake brings those memories back, with the likes of recent and past NBA heroes such as LeBron James, Steph Curry and Shaquille O’Neal.

The game still retains elements of a modern title such as improved graphics and a progression system, which allows you to unlock other character but keeps the core gameplay at a fun minimum.

Game Description:

Classic NBA arcade action is back! Take your “A” game to the playground and beat the best in high-flying 2-on-2 basketball action. Practice your skills offline, play with up to three others on your Xbox or take your talents online to posterize your opponents with acrobatic jams and ridiculous displays of skill. Collect your favorite players from a massive roster of current and retired NBA superstars from every team. Travel to playgrounds across the globe to compete in online matches against the very best with your massive arsenal of dunks and moves. Use your fine-tuned skills to take on the master of the playground himself – Allen Iverson.

This looks like a fun title to have on your system for when you want to play a quick game or take a short break – and it’s relatively inexpensive. Snag NBA Playgrounds for $19.99 on Xbox One, PS4 or the Switch.
