MyNBA2K17 mobile app will have face-scanning capability

The mobile companion app for NBA 2K17 will be introducing some new functionality to tie in with the game. After two years of having the ability to scan in faces for created MyPlayer characters by using the Kinect or PS4 Camera the job will now be done by the MyNBA2K17 app. That’s good news considering the scanning won’t be limited to those with the cameras and the process had been frustratingly difficult to complete and simply never worked for some people.

Earning extra VC has been the primary reason to have the MyNBA2K app in the past whether through the daily bonuses, built-in card game, or NBA pickem. MyNBA2K17 will be out for iOS and Android devices on Thursday, September 8.
