NBA 2K24 has its share of microtransactions, as is to be expected from a modern game, and it is called Virtual Currency or VC. Not everything that can be purchased with NBA 2K24 VC is purely cosmetic like animations or clothing: you can actually upgrade the Attributes of your player in the career mode. This NBA 2K24 guide will attempt to help you keep your hard earned money and accrue as much VC as possible for free, and still tailor the greatest NBA 2K24 MyPlayer you have ever dreamt of.
Own One Of The NBA 2K24 Special Editions
This is not really a tip, but a reminder that, if you own either the NBA 2K24 25th Anniversary Edition, or the NBA 2K24 Black Mamba Edition of the game, you have got a 100K in VC waiting for you.
Login To NBA 2K24 By 30th September
According to a tweet from the official NBA 2K account on X/Twitter, if you login just once to NBA 2K24 by the 30th of September, you will be gifted 10K VC among other rewards, for the next three consecutive seasons, starting from Season 1.
Daily Login
Just the act of logging-in to NBA 2K24 each day, every day, can potentially grant you some VC if you are lucky.
Questing
Quests and Challenges are time limited activities designed to encourage you to come back everyday to complete them and a few will let you accrue some VC, all handily listed under Quest rewards. Quests must be unlocked by talking to characters.
Just Play
Almost every mode in NBA 2K24 will earn you some measure of Virtual Currency, except for MyTeam.
Locker Codes
Found under Options, Locker Codes are fun little redeemable NBA 2K24 codes to be on the lookout for, just like easter eggs. Upon entering and claiming these codes, they will give you anything from card packs to cosmetics to VC, if you are really lucky. Once again, the official NBA 2K account on X/Twitter is the source for most of these codes, but there are some other avenues as well.
Stream NBA 2KTV
Watching the weekly show through the NBA 2KTV app on the in-game Smartphone will earn you VC based on your participation in various polls or NBA 2K24 trivia questions, not unlike some of the more professional Twitch streams. It airs on Friday nights in the US, or Saturday mornings in Europe.
That is every way to earn Virtual Currency or VC in NBA 2K24 without spending a dime of real world money.
