NBA 2K22 NBA 75th Anniversary Cover by Charly Palmer
Using my former colleague, and head of Black @ 2K, Jared Daye’s soundbite as an insight stating that he’s “honored to work on NBA 2K because it’s the Blackest game in gaming,” what better way to honor this moment of the NBA’s 75th anniversary elevating 3 of the best big men to play the game by working with renowned Black fine-artist, Charly Palmer?
A simultaneous first for 2K—work with a collaborator to create a cover art, and changing the visual direction as a whole – we set out to honor the past, while establishing an entirely new visual identity for how cover art should be perceived in not only physical form, but in digital mediums as well.
