NBA 2K23 Remastered is the epitome of its namesake. Since the game released in September, I have personally combed through every nook and cranny, looking for any information, customization, and enhancement available. The work has paid off.
2K23 Remastered features re-factored and re-imagined menus, a robust experimental Next-Gen lighting, renewed presentation, AND more. The mod also features a separate launcher -- marking the return of bootup videos once again to NBA2K. Experience NBA2K on PC near its full potential.
Several others helped with this mod, most notably -- Scriptity (Lighting), Vetmin2K (Research, Brainstorming, In-Game Content) and Psamyou'll (Remastered Launcher Creator). The remaining credits are in the .7z file. Please reach out to me and let me know if a mod of yours is in the mod without your permission.
