How to Access NBA 2K20 DLC Items

NBA 2K20 delivers another slam-dunk entry in the long-running basketball sim series, but with its array of special editions and pre-order bonuses, claiming your rewards can feel like a full-court press. Whether you’re chasing Virtual Currency (VC), MyTEAM packs, or fresh drip for your MyPLAYER, this guide breaks down how to access NBA 2K20 DLC items tied to your edition—and how to troubleshoot 2K’s infamous server hiccups.

Before You Tip-Off

• 🔴 Server Alert: 2K’s servers are notoriously unstable. If your DLC isn’t showing up immediately, wait a few hours (or days) and restart the game.
• Complete the Prelude: Finish the game’s introductory story mode to unlock MyPLAYER customization features like shoes and clothing.
• Stay Online: All DLC requires an active internet connection to claim.

1. Claiming Virtual Currency (VC)

VC is the lifeblood of NBA 2K20, used to upgrade your MyPLAYER and buy in-game items. Here’s what each edition offers:

• Standard Edition (Pre-Order): 5,000 VC
• Digital Deluxe Edition: 35,000 VC
• Legend Edition: 100,000 VC

How to Claim:

1. Log into NBA 2K20 for the first time.
2. Your VC will automatically deposit into your account.
   Troubleshooting: If it doesn’t appear, close the game, reconnect to the internet, and relaunch.

MyTEAM mode lets you build a dream roster, and special editions boost your progress:

Troubleshooting Missing DLC

• Restart the Game: Forces servers to sync.
• Check Platform: Ensure your edition matches your console (e.g., PS4 vs. Xbox).
• Contact 2K Support: Use their Help Site if items don’t appear after 24 hours.

Navigating NBA 2K20’s DLC rewards can be as chaotic as a buzzer-beater playoff game, but with patience and persistence, you’ll unlock every VC boost, MyTEAM gem, and drip-worthy fit your edition promises. While 2K’s servers might test your resolve, remember: the thrill of posterizing opponents in fresh Legend Edition kicks or flexing Sapphire AD in MyTEAM makes the grind worth it. Now that you’re armed with the know-how, hit the court and own your rewards. Still stuck?

Now that you’ve claimed your DLC items, take your NBA 2K20 customization further! Learn how to change Dunks and Layups to dominate the rim with style, and master how to tweak Signature Movements for animations that match your MyPLAYER’s swagger. From posterizing dunks to clutch celebrations, these guides ensure your avatar stands out—on and off the court.
