NBA 2K22 How to Change from Current to Next Gen PS4 to PS5
A number of players want to know how to change from current to next gen in NBA 2K22 or PS4 to PS5. I’m sure Xbox players want to know the same, but unfortunately, we don’t know how it works there. What this guide aims to do is to show those of you that have gotten the PlayStation 4 version of the game and are playing it on PlayStation 5 how to get the most out of it.
How to Change NBA 2K22 From Current PS4 To Next Gen PS5
To change NBA 2K22 from current gen to next gen, aka from PS4 to PS5 and back, the first thing that you need to know is that you can only do this if you’re playing on the PS5. It’s basically a way to get the game on PlayStation 4 but then enjoy the full capacity of the PlayStation 5. Think of it as changing the compatibility settings of a program on PC. With all of that said, here are the steps you need to follow. It’s really simple once you know how the system works.
First off, turn on your console and, in the home menu, flick over and highlight NBA 2K22. Press the Options button on the controller to bring up the side menu. Scroll down to “Game Version” and select it. From there, you can freely change from the PS4 and PS5 aka current to next gen in NBA 2K22. Just keep in mind that you’ll have to download them separately, because the two versions have different features, to say nothing of the higher-res graphics and stuff.
And that’s all there is to it. If you need help with anything else in NBA 2K22, we’ve got a number of other guides that you can check out. For example, we’ve written stuff like How to Become Shirtless, Get Free Custom Shirts – Unlock T-Shirt Creator, and How To Change Affiliations. I think you might find some of them useful.

I chatted with 2k support for a little bit and they had me send over some stuff like my receipt and proof of not having it downloaded as well as proof of redeeming the codes, after that they said they were gonna direct me to someone but never did so im waiting on that now
I’m having the same exact issue and PlayStation support didn’t help and 2k support is taking forever to reply after I sent some pictures
Same with me really need fix tired talking to playstation gamestop and 2k but no one knew anything

I got the 75th anniversary but the game version option is not available? How can I play my ps4 version on my 5?
I am having this same issue!!!
Same did you figure anything out
I have 17 emails from 2k support asking for more information. The 2 content cards for ps5 75th Ed have no info about which code has the last gen game or vc. 2k support said the red card has the ps4 nba 2k22. I sent them a vid adding the red card card on my nephews account & it was the vc not the game. I asked for a replacement code since they messed up support said it’s nothing they can do. No choice but to give the other dlc to my new ones since he has my vc with no game. F 2k forever
Same here I bought 75th anniversary edition and it says there is a voucher included for a standard version of 2k22 for next generation but I do not have the game version option either.
