Season 4 of NBA 2K26 is heating up with the All-Star Takeover event running February 13-16, featuring Victor Wembanyama and Tyrese Maxey as the cover stars. Launched on January 9, 2026, this season delivers cosmic-themed cosmetics, massive boosts, and elite MyTEAM cards that are still highly sought after as we approach the end window (Season 5 starts around February 20, 2026).
The crown jewel at Level 40 is the +1 Cap Breaker (game-changer for meta builds) plus Dark Matter Russell Westbrook in MyTEAM. Other highlights include the fan-favorite 8x8 Off-Road Vehicle returning at Level 18, Dreads Hairstyle, Diamond Eyes, All-Star Hockey Jersey, and the standout Hyperfade Suit (Gen 9) at Level 39.
Pro Pass and Hall of Fame Pass unlock 40 extra premium levels with autos like Galaxy Opal Aaron Gordon, VC drops, and boosted XP, highly recommended if you're pushing for Level 40.
Whether you're chasing drip for The City/Park, MyTEAM power-ups, or that crucial cap breaker, here's the full rewards guide.
How Season 4 Rewards Work in NBA 2K26
- Free Track: Everyone earns base rewards through Season XP (from MyCAREER games, Park/Rec/Pro-Am matches, MyTEAM agendas, and events).
- Pro Pass / Hall of Fame Pass: Paid upgrades add premium tiers, automatic rewards (Gold Fierce Lion Head, Animated Ice Blue Voltage Zip-Up Hoodie), and extras like 15% XP boost + level skips.
- Progression: Grind Season XP via normal play – focus on 2XP events, daily/weekly agendas, and All-Star Takeover multipliers for faster climbs.
- Tip: Hall of Fame Pass gives huge value for serious grinders; you can buy level skips with VC if you're close to key items.

Best Rewards Worth Grinding in Season 4 (Quick Tier List)
- S-Tier (Must Grind): +1 Cap Breaker (Level 40 – meta-defining for builds), Dark Matter Russell Westbrook & Angel Reese (elite MyTEAM cards), 8x8 Off-Road Vehicle (iconic transport).
- A-Tier: Diamond Eyes (drip flex), Hyperfade Suit (unique Gen 9 style), Dreads Hairstyle (popular look), All-Star Hockey Jersey (timely All-Star vibe).
- B-Tier: Cosmetics like mascots, ball trails, spaceship ball – fun but not essential. Community consensus (Reddit/X): Cap breaker is the only "must-have" for competitive play; the rest is filler unless you love cosmetics or MyTEAM.
