'NBA Playgrounds': 2-on-2 Arcade-Style Basketball Sim Release Next Month for Current-Gen Platforms

'NBA Playgrounds' will feature rosters made up of current and retired NBA players

"NBA Playgrounds" is aiming to provide fans with a different type of basketball sim, with this one utilizing arcade-style action and All-Star laden rosters to get the job done.

Starting off with gameplay, "Playgrounds" whittles down the usual number of 10 total players on the court to just 4, with 2 suiting up for each side.

From there, it is all about arcade-style action, so while players can still benefit from making the right passes and executing offensive and defensive game plans correctly, they can also opt to simply freestyle it on the court.

The developers over at Saber Interactive even gave a preview of what the action could look like inside the game in a recently released trailer that shows several players executing a wide array of aerial moves. It may even be possible for players to execute an elaborate-looking alley-oop, provided of course that they have their timing down.
