The Takeover system in NBA 2K25 has been revamped to include 70 takeovers in total, with 14 unique abilities. To unlock Takeover, you must meet specific requirements on your MyCAREER character using the table in this guide. Here are all the Takeover Requirements in NBA 2K25 so you know how to unlock them!

How Takeovers Work in NBA 2K25

Every Takeover in NBA 2K25 targets different attributes and has five levels, ranging from Level 1 when heating up to Level 5 when red-hot. Your Takeover Meter fills up based on your performance on the court, gradually boosting the targeted attributes as you rise to the five levels. This leveling process happens automatically, so you don’t need to activate Takeover manually. However, your Takeover Meter will drop if you make mistakes and produce bad plays on the court.

At Takeover Level 5, you’ll trigger a Takeover Ability that, when used effectively, can make you the most dominant player on the court for a short period. Initially, you will only have access to Levels 1-3 and will unlock Levels 4 and 5 by activating its previous Level in 30 games, but don’t worry because all Takeover Level unlocks carry over between saves!

Finally, you’ll see which Takeovers you can unlock within the MyPLAYER Builder and how each one’s associated boosts will impact your attributes. You can change your Takeover at any time between games, selecting from any you meet the attribute requirements for.

The Takeover system in NBA 2K25 is slightly different compared to animation requirements. If a Takeover isn’t bolded, you must meet the requirement for a specific attribute using the Rating column. However, if a Takeover has two additional bolded entries, you can meet the Rating requirement for either attribute associated with the Takeover.
