Hello, you can play NBA 2K22 even if your PS4 is not connected to the Internet, but you can only play the stand-alone part. There is only Dynasty Root Quick Mode in the game that does not require an Internet connection. NBA 2K22 is a basketball-themed sports game with the NBA 2021-2022 season as the game background and the 22nd generation of NBA2K. NBA 2k21 represented a step down from the best basketball franchise in gaming, at least in the eyes of many players. The PS4 and Xbox One versions looked cool but felt stale.
