How Much Does VC Cost in NBA 2K27?
VC in NBA 2K27 costs $1.99 for 5,000 VC at the low end and $149.99 for 700,000 VC at the top, across seven bundle tiers. Prices are identical on PlayStation and Xbox; on PC, Steam sells VC through the in-game store.
| VC Amount | Price | Per 10,000 VC |
|---|---|---|
| 5,000 VC | $1.99 | $3.98 |
| 15,000 VC | $4.99 | $3.33 |
| 35,000 VC | $9.99 | $2.85 |
| 75,000 VC | $19.99 | $2.67 |

| 450,000 VC | $99.99 | $2.22 |
| 700,000 VC | $149.99 | $2.14 |
The ladder is unchanged from NBA 2K26 and NBA 2K25: same seven amounts, same prices, no reductions and no increases. The packs are already listed on the PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store ahead of launch, alongside the Season 1 Pro Pass at $9.99 and the Hall of Fame Pass at $19.99.
Which VC Bundle Is the Best Value?
The 700,000 VC bundle is the best value per VC at roughly $2.14 per 10,000 VC, against $3.98 per 10,000 in the smallest pack. Value improves at every step up the ladder, so buy the largest single pack that covers what you actually need.
The steepest jump in value is between the 5,000 and 35,000 VC packs. If you only need a quick attribute upgrade, the 15,000 or 35,000 VC pack covers it without the poor rate of the smallest bundle. The 200,000 VC pack at $49.99 is the usual pick for taking one MyCAREER build to a high overall, and the 450,000 pack covers roughly two builds.
What Are the NBA 2K27 Editions?

The 10,000 VC pre-order bonus applied to orders placed before 10:00 AM PT on August 17, 2026, and that window has closed. Ultra is digital only and available through September 6, 2026. Full edition details are on the official NBA 2K27 FAQ.
Is the Deluxe Edition Cheaper Than Buying VC Separately?
Roughly break-even on VC alone: the $30 step from Standard to Deluxe brings 100,000 VC, and buying 100,000 VC in packs costs about $29. The Deluxe extras, MyCAREER boosts, jerseys, a 2XP coin and MyTEAM items, tip the value toward Deluxe.
The $50 step from Deluxe to Ultra is a different story. It adds 35,000 VC, about $10 worth in pack prices, plus the Season 1 Pro Pass, the Summer Season Pass bundle covering Seasons 7 through 9, and premium MyTEAM cards. Ultra only pays off if you would buy season passes anyway; for VC alone it is the weakest of the three.
How Do You Get Free VC in NBA 2K27?
The reliable free VC sources in NBA 2K27 are 2KTV episode answers, season rewards and daily login bonuses. Locker codes occasionally grant VC, but not a single regular NBA 2K26 code did, so do not count on codes for VC.
Answering every question correctly in a 2KTV episode typically pays 200 VC per question. Our 2KTV answers page is updated every episode. Check the season rewards tracker for VC on the free reward track, and the NBA 2K27 locker codes page for every active code.
