New York, NY – February 19, in the year of our Lord 2013
– 2K Sports today announced that the critically acclaimed NBA
2K13 will be paired with the upcoming MLB 2K13 in a combination

North American retailers for $79.99, for both the Xbox 360®
video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and

“Bundling two of the biggest sports franchises again just made
sense,” said Jason Argent, vice president of marketing for 2K
Sports. “In the same way that fans don’t limit themselves to one
sport, sports video gamers seek the level of variety and
convenience offered in this package. Combining NBA 2K13 and MLB
2K13 will make it easy for fans to discover the latest entries
to these popular franchises at an incredible value.”

Combo Pack, in addition to those who purchase the standalone MLB
2K13 title, will be eligible to compete in this year’s Perfect
Game Challenge*, which will award a sum total of $1 million
across 31 prize pools for gamers who pitch the best perfect
games in this year’s contest.
“I’ve been a fan of NBA 2K13 cover athlete Kevin Durant for
years and to share a video game cover with one of basketball’s
elite players is a big honor,” added David Price, Cy Young
award-winning pitcher for the Tampa Bay Rays and MLB 2K13 cover
athlete. “Fans can expect to experience 2K Sports’ signature
authenticity throughout this new package, from the sting of my
fastball to Kevin’s clutch shooting.”
“Being named as a face of NBA 2K13 was an honor, but adding a Cy
Young winner like David makes the cover that much more
memorable,” concluded Kevin Durant, NBA 2K13 cover athlete.
“Fans can expect the ultimate sports package with him and me
gracing 2K Sports’ latest bundle.”
