About NBA THE RUN

NBA THE RUN poster

NBA THE RUN takes basketball back to the streets with fast-paced, online 3v3 street play staged above the rim. Packed with posterizing dunks, ankle-breaking tricks, and a bold signature style, it lets you bring your favorite NBA stars to iconic streetball courts around the world, stacking wins, earning cred, and chasing the title of GOAT.

The competition centers on online multiplayer Knockout Tournaments spanning the globe, where you can play Solos or Squads across legendary courts from Venice Beach to The Tenement in the Philippines and beyond. Gameplay is fast, fluid, and responsive, powered by true rollback netcode so your inputs sync instantly, letting you cross up an aggressive defender, switch to a layup mid-dunk to dodge a block, or throw up a lob out of a spin move for a game-winning alley-oop.

Defense matters just as much as offense here, with thunderous blocks, diving loose-ball grabs, huge steals, and all-out physicality all capable of turning a game and getting you hyped. Everything about the presentation is handcrafted and stylized to deliver a completely unique look and feel that stays authentic to the sport. As an action, casual, and sports title on PC, NBA THE RUN celebrates streetball flash and grit in equal measure.
