How to unlock the Auction House in NBA 2K22

The epic release of NBA 2K22 is upon us, and players are eager to dive into the latest installment of 2K’s annual basketball series. If you want to truly dominate on the hardwood this year, then you’re going to need to grow accustomed to buying and selling players at the famous Auction House. In this guide, we’ll take a closer look at exactly what you need to do to access the Auction House in NBA 2K22. 

How to unlock the Auction House in NBA 2K22

There are three primary methods of unlocking the Auction House in NBA 2K22:

1. Triple Threat Competition
2. Domination Mode
3. Purchasing League Packs

To unlock the Auction House in NBA 2K22, you will need to collect 30 cards in your Collector Level Lifetime Agenda. The good news is that it can be any type of card from any of the different collections, so long as it adds up to a total of 30 by the end. 

Depending on which edition of the game you have and when you ordered it, you will start with a certain number of cards (typically between 20-23). But to unlock the rest of the cards, and therefore the Auction House, you will need to do a little bit more. 

Triple Threat Competition

The first way to unlock the Auction House in NBA 2K22 is to grind your way through Triple Threat competitions. Not only is it a reasonably easy grind, but you can even do it offline as well. Once you get to about 20 wins, you should be able to close in on ten new cards to add to your collection. 

Domination Mode

Another way to unlock the Auction House in NBA 2K22 is by playing in Domination mode and grinding your way to the top that way. 

Purchasing League Packs

Technically speaking, the easiest and quickest way to get cards is to buy and open a couple of League Packs. The downside here is that this will cost real money, and there’s no guarantee that you’ll get the cards you want. 

Keep in mind that neither one of the first two methods is exceptionally ‘fast,’ as both will surely take some time and effort to complete. At the same time, purchasing league packs requires spending real-life money with no guaranteed result. 

Overall, the best way to unlock the Auction House in NBA 2K22 is by earning the necessary cards the old-fashioned way; through competitive gameplay.
