    WNBA in NBA Live 18!!

    So I am not sure if anyone has seen this yet but I thought it was awesome!

    Gamespot has an article about it on their site, I cannot link to it yet as I do not have at least 5 posts, but I thought you guys would like to know about it anyway!

      Nice find man.



      Electronic Arts has revealed that NBA Live 18 will feature both the current teams and rosters of the WNBA. Although the Women's National Basketball Association has existed for over 20 years and legends like Lisa Leslie and Sue Bird have appeared in EA's NBA Street, no game has allowed you to play with the full squads of the L.A. Sparks, Dallas Wings, New York Liberty, or any of the other WNBA teams until this year. This follows EA's inclusion of women's teams in the FIFA series, which began with FIFA 16.

      NBA Live 18 is scheduled for release on PS4, Xbox One, and PC this December. A free demo on PS4 and Xbox One is scheduled for release on August 11, 2017 although it won't feature the WNBA content.

        Where has EA revealed that women are definitely in this Live game? I, like many, have seen those posts with Kelsey Plum

          WHOA, wait a minute? PC? This December you say?

          Cool about the WNBA, it's about time that league got recognized -- the women's game is more fundamentally sound than the NBA, IMHO, so it's a joy to watch from a technical perspective.

          BUT is that a PC confirmation for December, two months after the rumored September release date for console? Cause, if that's the case, guys, I'm STOKED. Live on PC had some epic mods back in the day.

            I sent a tweet to @EASPORTSNBA asking if it was real and they have not responded yet so who knows?

              I honestly don't see myself playing with any of the wnba rosters (I don't follow it), but big kudos to EA for trying something different and bringing it to the table.

              This -- in addition to street parks, Pro-Am and The One -- will clearly set it apart from 2K's offering. I can already see Live 18 being more successful than 16.

                Man, that article seemed too barebones to have any legitimatcey. Plus if anything the title of article should of been, "NBA LIVE 18 Comes To PC And Adds WNBA". Since neither were confirmed at EA Play this Summer.

                  I would be ecstatic if it came to PC. They do it with FIFA, so I've been holding out hope for Madden, Live, and NHL to make their way over.

                    Definitely looks like FIFA is serving as the model for Live, and I'm not broken up about that. FIFA ain't perfect, but it's a solid game year in and year out. You add the PC community to NBA Live, you work with that group, and you have a ready-made advantage over 2K, who tends to take the PC community for granted IMO.

                        Nice! Gameinformer still holding to the PS4/Xbox One only line.

                        PC announcement might have been a typo over at Gamespot. *sigh* I guess we'll see.
