Campaign Details: Golden Week
by EA_DavidOriginal Post
The NBA announced in March that they will be returning to Japan for some preseason games this year - last visit was in 2003! With this exciting news, your itinerary takes you across Japan against players from historic NBA Japan games.
This journey is set during Golden Week, a celebration of several national holidays that occur in late April-early May in Japan. You will see cultural references through our new player art in the Masters, a new boost item and a court!

Campaign Map
-
The goal is to collect Paper Cranes to reach progression milestones and Gachapon Tokens to exchange for packs that give a chance at the Golden Week Masters.
-
There are 7 iconic sites on the map of Japan with 4 challenges each. The first 3 challenges are drills, and the final is a 5v5 challenge against some of the best to play in Japan. Each challenge is first win only with no refresh and no stamina cost. A new site will open up every day of the campaign, but don’t worry! None will go away until the end of the campaign.
