Features

  • Play with fully licensed NBA teams and players from the 1997–1998 season, featuring accurate rosters, player ratings, and team identities that reflect the league’s real‑world stars and rivalries.
  • Experience Total Control Passing, a new mechanic that lets players direct passes to specific teammates with precision. This system adds fluidity to ball movement and allows for fast breaks, kick‑outs, and smart offensive setups.
  • Enjoy smoother animations and improved player models, with more natural dribbling, shooting, and defensive movement. The game feels faster and more responsive than earlier entries, making it easy to pull off highlight‑style plays.
  • Run authentic team playbooks, using set plays, screens, and defensive schemes that mirror real NBA strategies. Teams behave differently based on their strengths, giving each matchup a distinct feel.
  • Compete in Season, Playoff, and Exhibition modes, offering multiple ways to experience the NBA schedule. Season Mode tracks stats, standings, and awards, while Playoff Mode recreates the intensity of postseason basketball.
  • Face smarter, more reactive Defenders who adjust to your tendencies, double‑team star players, and challenge shots more aggressively. Offensive AI also runs plays and moves without the ball more effectively.
  • Use the Create‑A‑Player feature to build custom athletes with personalized attributes, appearances, and playstyles. Created players can be added to any team, expanding roster possibilities.
  • Play in authentic NBA arenas, each with unique court designs, crowd reactions, and atmosphere that reflect the home‑court identity of every franchise.
  • Experience classic 90s NBA presentation, including energetic commentary, arena sound effects, and a broadcast‑style camera system that enhances immersion.
  • Replay games to refine strategies, improve timing, and experiment with different teams, as the game’s smooth pacing and deep roster make it endlessly replayable.

NBA Live 98 brings the intensity of professional basketball to the PlayStation with updated rosters, realistic player movement, and a strong mix of simulation and arcade‑style gameplay. Players can run full seasons, jump into quick games, or take on the league in Playoff Mode, all while enjoying responsive controls and authentic team strategies.
