That said, while NBA 2K24 is coming to Nintendo Switch, the 25th Anniversary Edition of the game will not be available to Switch owners as it is exclusive to Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC platforms. 

NBA 2K24 is releasing four different editions: the Kobe Bryant Edition, which just includes the base game; the Black Mamba Edition; the 25th Anniversary Edition, and the special WNBA Edition featuring the cover image of Sabrina Ionescu exclusive to the residents of the U.S. and Canada. 

Of the four, only the first two, Kobe Bryant Edition, priced at £59.99/$59.99, and Black Mamba Edition, priced at £89.99/$99.99, will be released on Nintendo Switch.

Even though the Nintendo Switch is an inferior console on the hardware side compared to other platforms, the Kobe Bryant and the Black Mamba Editions will be the same on each platform, apart from a few visual changes you will see in the Nintendo Switch version.
