What happens if you rebirth in 2K23?
Rebirth in NBA 2K23 allows players to create new MyPlayer builds with a head start on attributes and badges. This can save a tremendous amount of time and virtual currency (VC) when making additional builds. Here‘s a detailed look at how rebirth works and if it‘s worth it in 2K23.
What Does Rebirth Do in 2K23?
The rebirth ability in 2K23 provides the following benefits when creating a new MyPlayer build:
- Starts at 90 overall rating instead of 60
- Gets 30 attribute upgrade points to spend instead of 0
- Gets 10 Badge upgrade points to spend instead of 0
Essentially, rebirth allows you to boost a brand new build up to a 90 overall with some badges already unlocked. This gives your new player a major head start compared to starting from scratch at 60 overall.
How to Unlock Rebirth in 2K23
To unlock rebirth in 2K23, you need to:
- Have a player reach level 40 in MyCareer
- Complete the "Into the Fire" main story quest
- Play your first game in the Jordan Challenge
- Win a championship in MyNBA Eras
Once those objectives are completed on one player, rebirth will become available for any new MyPlayers you create. You can use it multiple times to quickly build several powerful players.
Is Rebirth Worth It in 2K23?
Rebirth is 100% worth using in 2K23 for a few key reasons:
-
Saves VC – Getting to 90 overall normally takes 150k-200k VC. Rebirth gives it instantly for free.
-
Saves time grinding – It can take days of play to reach 90 overall normally. Rebirth gets you there instantly.
-
Lets you test multiple builds – Experiment with different position and skill sets without the long grind.
-
Makes competitive quicker – Be viable online much sooner compared to starting from the bottom.
The only downside is that rebirth doesn‘t unlock gym rat badge automatically like in 2K22. But the huge head start on attributes and badges still makes it incredibly valuable.
Tips for Using Rebirth
Here are some tips to make the most of your rebirth builds in 2K23:
-
Choose your first rebirth build carefully since you only get one free change. Make sure it fits your playstyle.
-
Focus first rebirth build on your main position and role so it can be a go-to player. Make more experimental builds later.
-
Spend rebirth attribute points on key ratings like speed, vertical, shooting or defense based on build.
-
Use some rebirth badge points to max out core badges like Limitless, Sniper, Clamps, etc for desired role.
-
Save VC after rebirth to keep progressing – don‘t blow it all on cosmetics or you‘ll stall out.
The Bottom Line
Rebirth is an extremely valuable reward in 2K23 that can accelerate your MyPlayer progression tremendously. The 90 overall rating and extra badge points provide a huge head start that makes the grind much easier and faster. It‘s well worth completing the rebirth requirements so you can build elite players quickly. Just be sure to use the rebirth boost wisely to maximize the benefits.
