Claims it was all an accident.
Who hasn’t accidentally added pre-roll ads to a video game post launch? NBA 2K21 has come under fire in the last week after a post-launch patch added in unskippable commercials into the game’s loading screens. People are not entirely happy about the extra monetization being added to a game that has already seen a price hike this year.
Well 2K has posted an update stating that the ads were not meant to run on the pre-game loading screen, adding that the commercials will be removed in a future update.

The response from the community doesn’t seem to suggest that people are 100% buying the “it was an accident” excuse.
