In anticipation of the worldwide launch of NBA 2K23, 2K and American Express announced that they will be giving free VC for a limited time via a pre-order promotion.

Here's a breakdown of how to claim some extra Virtual Currency (VC) through the NBA 2K23 AMEX pre-order option.

NBA 2K23 Free VC: American Express Pre-Order Option

To earn 35,000 VC ($9.99 US value) in NBA 2K23 for free, the only thing those interested need to do is pre-order or purchase any edition of the game on the 2K Store with an American Express Card.

Those who do so will be sent an email containing a one-time use Locker Code for the VC post-launch. The Locker Code will then be redeemable in-game, allowing players to access the VC.

The offer expires at the end of the year on Dec. 31, 2022.

Of course, VC is king in the NBA 2K series, whether you're a fan of MyCAREER, MyTEAM or another mode.

From upgrading attributes to buying players packs, VC significantly speeds up your progress.


NBA 2K23 is set to release worldwide for PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC (via Steam) on Sept. 9, 2022.
