To activate Takeover in NBA 2K25, you need to perform specific actions in the game, as Takeover is an important mechanic that boosts your player’s abilities temporarily during gameplay.

“In NBA 2K25, Takeovers are activated by meeting certain conditions during gameplay. The Takeover Meter is the orange circle around your player’s icon.”

Here’s how to activate Takeover in NBA 2K25:

1. Build Your Takeover Meter

  • Earn Takeover by performing actions that contribute to filling up your Takeover meter. You can do this by:
    • Scoring points: Make baskets, especially in key moments.
    • Playing good defense: Get steals, blocks, and force turnovers.
    • Assisting teammates: Create opportunities and earn assists.
    • Rebounds: Grab boards on both offense and defense.
    • Highlight plays: Perform flashy moves like alley-oops, poster dunks, and successful crossovers.

2. Takeover Meter

  • Your Takeover meter will fill up as you perform these positive actions.
  • Once the Takeover meter is full, it will activate, allowing you to use your Takeover abilities.

3. Activating Takeover

  • Once the Takeover meter is full, you will see an indicator on the screen showing that you can activate Takeover.
  • On current-gen (PS5, Xbox Series X/S), you can press and hold the Right Stick (R3) to activate your Takeover ability.
  • On next-gen systems, the method may vary slightly, but typically it is the same: press the R3 button to activate.

4. Types of Takeovers

  • Primary Takeover: When you activate Takeover, your primary Takeover ability will be active. This can be related to your player’s archetype, such as Sharpshooter, Playmaker, Rim Protector, or Slasher.
  • Secondary Takeover: If you have both a primary and secondary Takeover, both will be available. You can toggle between them if needed by using the Right Stick.

5. Use Takeover Effectively

  • While activated, your player will experience enhanced attributes, such as:
    • Increased shooting ability (for Sharpshooters)
    • Improved ball handling (for Playmakers)
    • Increased defense (for Rim Protectors)
  • Use your Takeover to dominate the game and make game-changing plays!

6. Team Takeover (Optional)

  • In NBA 2K25, there’s also a Team Takeover option. This is activated when multiple players on your team fill their individual Takeover meters.
  • Once the team’s Takeover meter is filled, all players on the team get a temporary boost to their abilities.
  • Activate Team Takeover by pressing the appropriate button (often L1 + R1 on PlayStation or LB + RB on Xbox) when the meter is filled.

Remember these additional points:

• Takeover Levels: There are five levels of Takeover. The higher the level, the more powerful the boosts you’ll receive.

• Takeover Abilities: Each Takeover has a unique special ability that unlocks at level 5

• Cooldown: After a Takeover ends, there’s a cooldown period before you can activate it again

• All Modes: You can manually activate Takeovers in all game modes, including MyCareer, MyTeam, and Play Now.

For more in-depth information on specific Takeover requirements and abilities, you can consult online guides or resources within the game itself.
