EA Sports and Under Armour Scores Big in NBA Live 14

Allow me to say that ANY news is good news when EA begins to share the love around the development of NBA Live 14. It’s been a few years and I know that EA has what it takes to pull all of the stops on 2K14. Players on the cover don’t sell the title, gameplay and the expectation of the content does that. And with that in mind, we’re excited to share EA Sports first bit of news for Live 14.

This year Under Armour will be overseeing the 2014 NBA Draft Showcase with EA Sports as one of the key sponsors. To further press on the excitement of the showcase, NBA Live will implement a new mode called “Rising Star.”

In Rising Star, gamers will be given the chance to write their own history as an NBA player. Whether it’s modeling your career as a scoring point guard or an athletic big, it’s up to each player to decide how they want to dominate the game and earn Rising Star Points to improve their skills.

It will be a 25 year stretch from the bottom to the top in the like of Kobe, Lebron or Michael Jordan. Will you have what it takes? Preorder your copy of NBA Live 14 now for either PlayStation 4 or XBOX One as the Live will only be available be releasing next-gen.
