“The W allows you to live out your WNBA dreams like never before in NBA 2K25.”
Weekly Community Goals are back in NBA 2K25 and require a collective effort from all players to accomplish them. These goals now track new stats, like the number of excellent green shot releases and your teammate grades. If the community hits the goal in at least four out of the six weeks of each Season, everyone receives a reward, with the rarity of the reward you receive being determined by how much you contributed.
Game Changers Mentorship
NBA 2K25 builds on the Game Changer status—earned by contributing to the weekly Community Goals—with a new feature called Mentorship. On top of special rewards like Player Boosts for you or your teammates, every couple of games you will have the chance to take another player, who is not yet a Game Changer, under your wing as your mentee. They will receive a challenge, such as “You have been challenged to grab 7 rebounds, and here’s +1 to your Rebounding attribute to help you out.” If you can guide your mentee to complete their challenge, you will also receive a boost to your Community Goal contributions. Everyone wins!

The number of successful Game Changers Mentorships you complete will be tracked and displayed on your Player Panel, showcasing your valuable contributions to the community and inspiring others to engage in some mentoring of their own.
Rewards
Throughout the year, new rewards will be available for your MyPLAYER in The W Online, earned by completing shorter stat goals that refresh every week. Completing these will contribute towards the overall weekly Community Goal and also unlock exciting rewards, including brand new jersey dresses, featuring WNBA players on the GOAT list, holiday-themed clothes, and much more. Game Changers can also earn exclusive rewards like arm sleeves, ball trails, and green release animations. This is just a preview of what's to come in each NBA 2K25 Season!
The W allows you to live out your WNBA dreams like never before in NBA 2K25.
