“NBA 2K16” sold more than 4 million units in less than a week, setting a franchise record, 2K announced.

Additionally, the game’s digital sales were doubled from last year’s, and nearly three times as many online matches were played.

“Each year we set out to deliver not only the best on-court basketball video game, but a full off-court entertainment experience that transcends basketball,” Jason Argent, senior vice president of basketball operations at 2K, said in a press release. “‘NBA 2K’ fans around the world are buying this title faster and in greater numbers than ever before.”

“2K16” introduced a new game mode, MyCAREER, where gamers can follow a player’s journey from high school star to college player to professional baller. Acclaimed filmmaker Spike Lee wrote and directed MyCAREER’s story.

Developed by Visual Concepts, “NBA 2K16” launched Sept. 29 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC.
