2K restores online servers for NBA 2K14

Following this week's snafu in which 2K Sports shut down NBA 2K14's servers after 16 months, causing players on Xbox One and PS4 to lose their Career modes, 2K has announced plans to extend online support for all NBA 2K servers.

According to a statement posted today, online support offered through NBA 2K servers will be extended from 18 months to 27 months following each release.

Here's the full statement:

2K has restored the NBA 2K14 servers and all online services. Beginning today, we are extending the support of all NBA 2K servers from 18 to 27 months following each release, giving our players more time to experience and enjoy the highest rated NBA simulation video game franchise. The opinions of our community continue to have a positive impact on our business decisions as we strive to create the best possible experience for all of our fans.
