NBA 2K23 is out now and players jumping in for the first time may have pre-order and edition items available for them to start their journey with. These items range from in-game currency and gear to real-world services like NBA League Pass. To help you access it all here’s a quick how to access NBA 2K23 pre-order and edition items guide.
VC, MyTEAM Points Tokens Currencies, 10% XP Boost to MyTEAM
The first items players will unlock when the login to the game is Virtual Currency, MyTEAM Points and Tokens.

You can see your current balance in the top right corner of MyTEAM (as shown in the screenshot above). If the currencies do not appear contact 2K support.
The 10% XP Boost on MyTEAM Season Progression from the Championship Edition of the game applies automatically. Once you start playing MyTEAM you will gain additional XP received in the game mode.

The next set of items is the different MyTEAM cards players receive either from pre-ordering or buying the different versions of the game. Pre-orders get a 95 Devin Booker and 10 MyTEAM Promo Packs (delivered one a week). Edition cards are 23 MyTEAM Promo Packs, Sapphire Devin Booker and Ruby Michael Jordan, 1 Free Agent Option Pack, 1 Diamond Jordan Shoe, and 1 Ruby Coach Card Pack.
To claim your cards make your way to the MyTEAM game mode. On the MyTEAM screen tab right to the Pack Market screen. On this screen scroll down to Unopened Packs. Here you will find the packs you have currently available to claim. Claim the ones you want to open now.
Each week you will find more cards here as the MyTEAM Promo Packs are delivered. Additionally, the Locker Code rewards also appear on this page as well if they are a card.
