NBA 2K25 Season 8 release countdown, Season Pass rewards, and more

NBA 2K25 Season 8 is almost here, and it will include some amazing rewards for the players to grind out in the MyPlayer and MyTeam modes.

Being the penultimate season of the game's annual cycle, you can expect to see a few 99 and 100-rated cards and exciting cosmetic items. The actual rewards are yet to be revealed, but we know the release date and time of the upcoming season.

NBA 2K25 Season 8 release countdown

The release date and time have been known for some time as part of Season 7's Pass end date. However, 2K has officially confirmed the exact details in the recent patch notes. The new season goes live on Friday, June 27, based on the available information. This is also the same time when the ongoing Season 7 Pass will be replaced by a new one containing a fresh track of rewards to unlock.

  • 8:00am PT
  • 10:00am CT
  • 11:00am ET
  • 3:00pm GMT

Once again, NBA 2K is following the standard schedule for kicking off new seasons.

NBA 2K25 Season 8 Pass rewards

As of this writing, the exact rewards of the new pass haven't been revealed. We expect to have the information on Wednesday, June 25, followed by the full reveal when the season goes live on Friday. However, it's almost certain that the pass will have forty reward levels.

All players are guaranteed up to 80 different rewards if they can max out the season. Those opting for the paid upgrade will be rewarded with 40 extra levels, including VC and much more. Once NBA 2K reveals more, we will update it on our guide.

To unlock the rewards, you'll have to gain seasonal XP by playing in the MyPlayer and MyTeam modes. Playing in any one mode also works, as you unlock the rewards level-wise. If you unlock the level 1 reward for MyTeam, it will also grant you the corresponding item(s) for MyPlayer.
