Quick answer (TL;DR)
The newest NBA 2K27 2KTV episode is Episode 9, which aired on Friday, November 6, 2026. It has 9 questions: Any, Gabby Williams, City Challenges, Event Schedule, Triple Threat Park, Any, All of the Above, 120, 500. The full key for every Season 13 episode is below, newest first.
So far 2K has aired 9 episodes with 103 questions in Season 13 of 2KTV. GameDaily's Episode 6 key puts each correct answer at 200 VC or a cosmetic reward, while its Episode 8 key cites a 100-200 VC range carried over from last season. 2K hasn't published a rate. If every question paid 200 VC, all 103 would be worth 20,600 VC. That's a ceiling we calculated, not a guaranteed total. The last answer of Episode 9 tells you what's next. Episode 10 is the 500th episode of 2KTV, and 2K teased it for "next week." Based on the Friday pattern, it should land around Friday, November 13, but 2K hasn't confirmed the date.
This page covers NBA 2K27, Season 2, 2KTV Season 13, checked November 12, 2026. We update it when each new episode airs.
What is 2KTV in NBA 2K27 and how do you earn VC from it?
2KTV is NBA 2K's weekly in-game show. Each episode has quiz questions at different points. Answer one correctly and you get a reward, usually VC. NBA 2K27 runs Season 13 of the show. Season 12 ran in NBA 2K26, and its archive doesn't carry over.
GameDaily's answer pages describe the payout like this:
"Each correct answer is worth 200 VC or a cosmetic reward" — GameDaily, 2KTV Episode 6 answers, October 10, 2026
The same outlet's Episode 8 key gives a 100-200 VC range from the previous season instead, and 2K hasn't published an official per-question rate for 2K27. Treat 200 VC as the most you can expect per question, not a promise. It's still one of the cheapest legit VC sources in the game. It takes a few minutes a week, needs no skill and has no grind. Former 2K League pro OFab also says this on Episode 9. He names 2KTV questions, The REC and Daily Rivals as the easiest Lifetime Challenges to clear, according to GameDaily's recap.
Poll questions ("Vote for your Top Play," "What position do you play most") accept any answer and still count as correct.
Where do you watch 2KTV in NBA 2K27?
You have two ways in:
- Main menu → 2KTV tab. Every Season 13 episode is listed there, split into segments. Segments with a VC icon contain a question.
- MyCAREER pause menu → Options/Features → 2KTV, if you're already in The City.
Three practical tips:
- Watch each segment in full. Questions come up mid-video, and skipping ahead can make you miss one or lose your place.
- Older episodes stay in the tab. If you missed Episodes 1-8, go back to them. 2K hasn't said whether rewards from old episodes ever expire, so collect them sooner rather than later.
- If the 2KTV tab shows "Connect" instead, check for a save or update problem. 2K Support's UserData corruption article tells you to dismiss the cloud-save download error and pull the update through the Connect tab. Once that finishes, 2KTV comes back.
How much VC is each 2KTV episode worth?
Here's every Season 13 episode so far, with its question count and the most VC it can pay, assuming 200 VC per answer (some questions pay less or a cosmetic):
| Episode | Aired | Questions | Max VC (if 200/answer) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Episode 9 | Fri, Nov 6, 2026 | 9 | ~1,800 |
| Episode 8 | Fri, Oct 30, 2026 | 11 | ~2,200 |
| Episode 7 | Fri, Oct 16, 2026 | 12 | ~2,400 |
| Episode 6 | Fri, Oct 9, 2026 | 11 | ~2,200 |
| Episode 5 | Fri, Oct 2, 2026 | 10 | ~2,000 |
| Episode 4 | Fri, Sep 25, 2026 | 12 | ~2,400 |
| Episode 3 | Fri, Sep 18, 2026 | 13 | ~2,600 |
| Episode 2 | Fri, Sep 11, 2026 | 12 | ~2,400 |
| Episode 1 | Wed, Aug 26, 2026 | 13 | ~2,600 |
| Total | 103 | ~20,600 |
Two things to notice. Since Episode 2, every episode has aired on a Friday. And 2K skipped the week of October 23, the week after Season 2 launched. So a "missing" week doesn't mean the show has ended.
Even if the real total lands below that 20,600 VC ceiling, it costs you about 10 minutes per episode, and it stacks on top of Daily Rivals payouts. For the full list of ways to earn VC, see our how to earn VC fast guide.

Answer 4 is confirmed on 2K's own The City page, which says Season 1 kicks off at Lion & Vine Park. Answer 2 is Casual Corner.
When does 2KTV Episode 10 come out?
2K hasn't announced a date. The best evidence:
- It's the 500th episode. Episode 9's last question was "Next week, we will be celebrating _ episodes of 2KTV" (answer: 500). GameDaily's recap adds that 2KTV began back in NBA 2K15.
- "Next week" from November 6 points to the week of November 9-15. Since Episode 2, every episode has aired on a Friday, so the likeliest date is Friday, November 13, 2026. Treat that as our projection, not 2K's date.
- Season 3 starts November 27 (see our Season 3 release date guide). After Season 2 launched on October 16, 2K skipped the following Friday (October 23). The Season 3 changeover could shift the schedule the same way.
We'll add the Episode 10 answers here once the episode airs and two independent answer keys agree.
FAQ
How much VC do 2KTV answers give in NBA 2K27? 2K hasn't published a rate. GameDaily reports 200 VC or a cosmetic per correct answer, and elsewhere cites a 100-200 VC range from last season. So Episodes 1-9 (103 questions) pay at most about 20,600 VC, and possibly less.
Can you still answer old 2KTV episodes? Yes. Every Season 13 episode stays listed in the 2KTV tab, so you can go back to Episode 1. 2K hasn't said whether rewards from older episodes expire, so clear your backlog before Season 3 starts on November 27 to be safe.
What happens if I pick the wrong 2KTV answer? You miss that question's reward. Each question gives you one pick, so check the key above before you press the button. Poll questions accept any option.
Why didn't I get VC after answering? First make sure you're online. If the tab shows "Connect," follow 2K Support's cloud-save fix above, which pulls the update through that tab. Also check that you watched the segment through to the question rather than skipping past it.
Is there a 2KTV episode every week? Almost. Episodes 2-9 all aired on Fridays, but there was no episode on October 23, the week after Season 2 launched. The 500th episode (Episode 10) was teased for the week after November 6.
Do 2KTV answers carry over from NBA 2K26? No. NBA 2K26 ran 2KTV Season 12 with its own episodes. NBA 2K27 runs Season 13, and only Season 13 episodes pay out in 2K27.
The bottom line
2KTV is about 10 minutes of watching per episode for up to roughly 2,000 VC, and the whole Season 13 backlog is still sitting in the tab. Work through Episodes 1-9 with the key above, then check back when the 500th episode airs. For codes that pay MyTEAM rewards, our locker codes tracker is checked several times a week.
