NBA 2K26: How to Unlock Custom Takeovers

In NBA 2K26, takeovers play a significant role during the game-building process, and this year introduces an even greater depth with fully customizable Takeovers that enable you to decide which stats to amplify. However, obtaining personalized Takeovers in NBA 2K26 requires considerable effort, making it quite the lengthy journey.

Fortunately in NBA 2K26, Takeover unlocks are universal across all your game builds, which means you only need to complete the process once. Additionally, with the improved Rebirth system, setting up new builds has never been easier. Here’s a guide on how to unlock custom Takeovers in NBA 2K26:

1. Begin by playing games or participating in various game modes to earn MyTeam points (MT).
2. Once you have acquired sufficient MT, navigate to the “MyTeam” menu.
3. From there, select the “Packs” option and then choose “Auction House”.
4. In the Auction House, search for “Takeover Tokens”. These tokens are used to unlock custom Takeovers.
5. After acquiring a Takeover Token, go back to the “MyTeam” menu, then select “Lineup”, and finally “My Players”.
6. From your player list, find the player you wish to assign the Takeover to and select him.
7. In the player’s details, locate the “Takeovers” tab and use your Takeover Token to unlock a custom Takeover for that player.

How to Get Custom Takeovers in NBA 2K26

To gain access to the personalized Takeovers in NBA 2K26, you must initially unlock all 44 standard Takeovers within MyCareer first. Following this accomplishment, you will need to complete filling up your Takeover progression meter one more time to activate Custom Takeovers for your gaming profile.

Takeover progress is shared between characters, so you only need to do this once per account.

As a dedicated gamer, I must confess that the journey to unlock all 44 Takeovers is nothing short of a marathon. It seems like each step takes forever, especially when it comes to the final Takeover progression bar for custom Takeovers. The pace slows down significantly compared to the earlier ones. However, fear not! You can easily keep track of your current Takeover unlock progress by diving into the Progression menu. Just scroll down to the Takeover tab, and voilà! There you’ll find your Takeover Meter, the Takeover you currently have equipped, and a glimpse of what’s next on the horizon for you to unlock.

After being unfastened, you will gain control over four personalized Takeover positions, which you are free to modify according to your preferences. You get to select the three traits that receive an enhancement, opt for the Takeover Ability you acquire at level five, and even rename the Takeover to something of your choosing. There are no limitations when picking attributes, and you can utilize any Takeover Ability you desire (provided your player meets the necessary Takeover prerequisites).

In NBA 2K26, Custom Takeovers represent a major shift in endgame character building, allowing you to fine-tune your player’s abilities even more by enhancing specific attributes and blending in specific Takeover Skills. You have four slots at your disposal, so don’t hesitate to explore different combinations. Plus, the flexibility to modify your custom Takeovers on the fly is ideal for players eager to try new builds or use ‘cap breakers’ to surpass attribute limits and unlock additional Takeover Abilities.
