VC is the currency that powers almost everything in NBA 2K26. You can buy it in bundles or earn it while you play. Prices vary by platform and region, so your store will show the exact cost with taxes included. Here is how much VC in NBA 2K26 is, and how you can earn it without spending real money.
All Prices for VC in NBA 2K26
Open the in-game store or your platform’s marketplace to see live pricing. The bundles you will typically see are:
| Base VC | Bonus VC | Total VC | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5,000 | N/A | 5,000 | $1.99 |
| 12,500 | 2,500 | 15,000 | $4.99 |
| 25,000 | 10,000 | 35,000 | $9.99 |
| 50,000 | 25,000 | 75,000 | $19.99 |

Larger packs usually come with a better per-VC rate. If you are rebuilding a player from scratch, compare the big bundles. If you only need a small top up for an animation or badge upgrade, grab one of the smaller options.
How To Earn VC In NBA 2K26 Without Spending Money
You can stack VC just by playing, although it will take longer than buying a bundle. These methods work across the year and fit naturally into most game modes.
Watch NBA 2KTV
Load up 2KTV using your smartphone and answer questions in NBA 2KTV to pocket small VC drops that add up over time.
Complete Quests in MyCAREER and The City
Check the Quest tab for daily, weekly, and storyline objectives. Many quests reward VC on completion, so make a habit of clearing the quick ones whenever you log in.
Play Basketball
Game checks and teammate grades pay VC in most modes. Quick games in Play Now Online or Rec are efficient for steady earnings. MyTEAM uses MT Points instead of VC, so do not expect VC payouts there.
Redeem Locker Codes
Keep an eye on official channels for time-limited codes. Redeem them to claim free VC, cosmetic items, packs, and more. Codes often appear during events, broadcasts, or social promos.
Tip: Mix a few 2KTV questions, a couple of quick quests, and a Rec game or two. That routine builds a reliable VC flow without spending cash.
That covers NBA 2K26 VC, from bundle prices to legit ways to earn it free. Compare value before you buy, then stack VC through 2KTV, MyCareer quests, gameplay, and timed locker codes.
