DeMar DeRozan graces cover of NBA 2K18 Canada.
With Kyrie Irving and Shaquille O’Neal already announced as cover athletes for NBA 2K18, 2K adds its first Canadian cover athlete DeMar DeRozan.
With the Toronto Raptors making waves in the NBA and capturing the hearts of Canadians, 2K games felt it was time to give them some love.
“It’s a huge honor to be recognized on the first-ever Canadian cover for NBA 2K and represent the Raptors after eight years with the team,” DeRozan said in a press release. “The fans up here are super passionate about basketball, so it’s cool to help introduce a cover that’s just for them.”
It’s still unknown if 2K will make this a yearly cover campaign for Canada. It’s also unknown if they will venture out to other places outside the US. What is know is that this is a great first step to reaching fans internationally.
NBA 2K18 is set to launch September 19 for Xbox One,PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch.
