Rebirth essentially lets you take your player and reset their build while giving you a few boosts to make grinding to max overall much easier. Unfortunately, 2K24 doesn’t just give you this ability out of the gate NBA 2K MT. You have to earn it. The process has changed a bit from last year (especially on next-gen where it was a bit convoluted), but the basics are still the same. First, you need to find Ronnie 2K.

The good news about finding Ronnie 2K is that NBA 2K24 gives you an early quest that you can track to find his exact location. That said, he can be found at the south end of the map on the beach. You’ll know it’s him because he’s wearing a goofy-looking pool floatie. However, finding him is just the beginning of the quest chain. To actually unlock Rebirth, you’ll need to get your player to 90 OVR.

While you can absolutely buy your way to that rating if you’re willing to spend real-world money on 2K’s Virtual Currency (VC), you’ll also need to play quite a bit to unlock the ability to hit 90 OVR. At the start of your player’s journey, you’ll be capped at 85 OVR, and the only way to increase it is by playing either NBA games or jumping into The City against other players. Expect it to take several hours before you can even hit 90 OVR, no matter how much you want to spend.

It’s also worth noting that you can get to 90 OVR without spending any money, it’s just going to take some time. It’s hard to predict exactly how long it will take because some quests give Cheap NBA 2K24 VC, but if you’re playing NBA games in MyCareer on Semi-Pro, you get about 1,000 VC after each. Playing on higher difficulties will give more VC.
