NBA 2K26's MyTeam is making history, as WNBA players will take the court against NBA athletes for the first time. The game's various abilities, attributes, and badges will work the same for WNBA stars as they do for their male counterparts.

"MyTEAM is where competition meets a basketball fan’s wildest imagination,” said Erick Boenisch, VP of NBA Development at Visual Concepts.

“By integrating the WNBA into one of our most popular modes, we’re not only giving players the opportunity to customize their all-time dream rosters but shining a spotlight on some of the game’s most iconic hoopers. We’re looking forward to giving our players a new and deeper way to engage with the WNBA. But there is so much more coming to MyTEAM this year - from All-Star Team-Up to new weekly cash prizes in King of the Court, there have never been more ways to compete with friends and win big.”

As I mentioned in a piece in June, EA has already put women in EA Sports FC's Ultimate Team mode, and was all the better for it. There are only so many athletes these publishers can get the rights to, so by season's end we are getting our 12th version of Carmelo Anthony.

To celebrate the move, NBA 2K26 will have a separate domination tier for WNBA, all WNBA uniforms, and all of their court surfaces. The commentary team of Kevin Harlan, Stan Van Gundy, and Greg Anthony will record hours of new material for this exciting new addition to gameplay.
