For years, 2K Sports has concentrated on specific players for its NBA 2K franchise, including retired Chicago Bulls player Michael Jordan. For NBA 2K14, the development team is going all out, calling upon Miami Heat superstar LeBron James to be featured in a new mode called Path To Greatness.

In this new addition to the series, you’ll have the opportunity to guide LeBron down different career paths. You can either continue to build upon the “Heat Dynasty” that’s generated a couple of championships thus far, or take him on a “Fantastic Journey” to a new team of your choosing, whether you want him to go back to the Cleveland Cavaliers or try something completely new – maybe even the New York Knicks.

The Path To Greatness mode spans across several single games, with moments that define LeBron’s career as you move forward. Along the way, you’ll tackle particular challenges to help his progress, which will then determine the best way to go next.

Oddly enough, the Path To Greatness mode will be exclusive to current-gen versions of the game, on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. There’s no word yet in regards to what features are being reserved for the forthcoming Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions.

NBA 2K14 arrives on October 1st for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, and later in the year on Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
