NBA 2K22: All New Badges Guide

All New Badges

First, let’s look at the system changes: The number of badge points available to you has been significantly increased, providing you additional possibilities for badgeging out your MyPLAYER. The new comprehensive builder screen makes it easier for players to recognize available badges, the cost at each tier, and the attribute criteria needed to reach each tier. You may also watch how those figures alter in real-time when you tweak the attribute caps. Another exciting new feature is the option to build Badge Loadouts! These enable you to quickly and easily change the badges you have equipped dependent on how you’re performing on a particular day or even the matchups stepping up to the Got Next spots.

Fast Twitch – Ability to get off the floor quicker for standing layups and dunks

Grace Under Pressure – Ability to convert standing layups more effectively

Limitless Takeoff – Ability to soar from further away on driving dunk attempts

Mouse in the House – Ability for bigs to finish over shorter players more efficiently

Unstrippable – Ability to secure the ball better when gathering for a layup/dunk in traffic

Chef – Ability to knock down Steph-like off-dribble deep 3’s

Limitless Spot-up – Ability to hit logo-range 3’s off a catch and shoot

Lucky #7 – Boosts your ability to score when shooting early in the clock

Mismatch Expert – Ability to successfully shoot over taller defenders on a switch

Glue Hands – Ability to make difficult catches and quicker branch out to a shot or dribble

Hyperdrive – Boosts the speed and effectiveness of moving dribble moves

Quick Chain – Boosts the ability to quickly chain dribble moves together

Post Playmaker – Boosts the effectiveness of both shots and moves when playing in the post

Triple Threat Juke – Increases the effectiveness of triple threat fakes, jabs, and go moves

Ball Stripper – Ability to strip layup and dunk attempts more effectively

Hustler – Ability to get to those scrappy 50/50 balls quicker than opponents

Menace – Significantly drops the offensive ratings of opponents when you smother them

This raises our overall badge count to 80, with a handful of previous badges receiving improvements as well. With so many options and methods to influence the game, the Loadout function is a great addition. Last but not least, we have some exciting news: none of the badges will be retired this time. 2K transferred ALL 80 badges to the current-gen, which is a huge improvement for you!
