NBA Live Mobile Available Today
NBA Live might have been delayed on console until 2017, but EA is still giving fans their basketball fix on mobile. NBA Live Mobile is out today for iOS and Android devices.
The game features live events, head-to-head multiplayer, and a single-player season mode. Coins can be earned through play or purchased, allowing players to build their teams.
EA says it will be updating the game throughout the year to line up with the NBA season. The game is free to download with in-app purchases.
Our Take
EA has found success with FIFA and Madden mobile titles. The publisher is finding a rhythm with its sports brands, as Ultimate Team has taken on a huge life of its own and mobile keeps players engaged on the go. It’s still a few months before you can play a new NBA game on console, so if you’re looking for something new, this won’t cost you anything to try.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
