NBA 2K24 Build Prices Compared to Previous Years

NBA 2K24 is more than just collecting your favorite basketball players and hitting the court. You also have to improve the build of your favorite player to make it to the top. But upgrading builds require VC, and going from one overall point to another will take a bit more of your cash than usual. It was well known that because of inflation, earlier NBA 2K titles had a steep increase in the total build price over the years. It doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon, as NBA 2K24 is no different. In this guide we will see the current build price compared to previous years in NBA 2K24.

NBA 2K24 Build Prices Compared to Previous Years

There has been speculation that the current build price will cross $100 to upgrade from 60 OVR to 99. Here we will break down the build prices in NBA 2K24

According to YouTuber AllCity Live TV, who also did a rundown of build prices for NBA 2K23, the total cost for upgrading your build from 60 OVR to 85 will come to about 190K VC.

For each overall upgrade, it would initially cost around 4K at 60 OVR per attribute, and gradually increase to 40K total to reach 70 OVR.
To upgrade beyond 70 OVR, you need to spend 10K per attribute.
To reach 80 OVR, you have to shell out a total 140K VC.
So technically, you have to spend 10K per attribute, bringing your grand total to 190K VC to get to 85 OVR.

It is also speculated that to cross 85 OVR after the Rebirth 2.0 update, you need to spend around 13K to 15K per overall upgrade. This might bring your grand total to 265K VC to get to 90 OVR. So, judging by the increase in cost, to upgrade from 90 OVR to 91 OVR, it might take around 25K VC to get to that point. That is, if the increase rate is an additional 10K VC per attribute.

If we keep going, from 90 to 95 will bring anywhere to 75K VC. This will bring your grand total to 340K VC. Add another 10K VC increase per attribute, and you can be looking at close to 530K VC total to get to 99 OVR. This is almost an 80K increase from last year, where NBA 2K23 only required 450K VC total. Let’s take a look at the below list and see how much inflation has happened over the years.
