About This Game

BUILD YOUR BASKETBALL CAREER.

Hoop Dynasty: Rise of a Legend is a single-player basketball management game and basketball career simulator focused on your own athlete. Create your player, develop their skills and earn a place in the starting lineup. Player development, match simulation and RPG choices shape your career on and off the court.

Choose where to begin: College, International or Pro. Each path brings a different setting, opportunities and pressure.

DEVELOP YOUR PLAYER

Choose your position, shape your attributes and mentality, then follow your player's development. Performances, consistency, form and injuries affect your minutes and your place in the team. Study your stats and work out where you can make a difference.

Distribute your starting points across technical and physical attributes and see your Overall change as you shape the build. Choose what to work on in training and balance development with recovery. Meet your career rival, compare your progress and stats, and revisit the games you have played against each other.

Your first practice introduces shooting, passing and defensive timing. Read the coach's assessment of each area and the session note in the recap.

FROM THE LOCKER ROOM TO THE FINAL BUZZER

Read the coach's message and make your pregame choices in the locker room. Then follow the action in the Live 2D Match Center, with court movement, play-by-play and game stats, or use quick simulation. After the final buzzer, review the game recap and your player's growth.

During key possessions, make offensive and defensive decisions that influence the action: create a shot, find a teammate or attack the gap. Your choice carries risks; it does not guarantee a basket. Hot & Cold states reflect temporary changes in form driven by performance, visible in the Match Center and quick simulation.

Choose simulation only, tactical choices, or choices with manual input. Story, Intermediate and Hard adjust timing windows for training and for Match Center choices with manual input. On free throws, time both the preparation and the release, then follow the ball to the result.

Fast Sim updates the score, your player's stats and the play-by-play as the game progresses. Its Hot & Cold panel identifies players currently showing those form states.

The Player Growth recap shows your game line alongside season averages, recorded attribute changes and Overall before and after the game. Followers and reputation are tracked separately from technical attributes. Use the suggested next focus to plan what to work on.

MAKE THE CALL OFF THE COURT

Relationships with teammates and coaches, contracts, agents, sponsors and media pressure are part of the career. Look for a bigger role, chase a championship or consider a new team. Your decisions help shape your reputation and where you go next.

Conversations with the coach can unlock the chance to suggest your starting five. Drag teammates into position, review your proposal and send it; the coach makes the final decision. Interactive training, recovery and choices in your life away from the court give you more to consider between games.

Explore the club relationship tree and private conversations with teammates. Away from the court, choose a weekly life plan and read and answer phone messages between career events.

FOLLOW THE BASKETBALL WORLD. LEAVE YOUR MARK.

Basketball carries on beyond your own games. Rosters change, new prospects emerge, veterans retire and the market shifts the balance. Follow teams, schedules, standings and playoffs to see how the season unfolds.

Championships, individual awards, national-team call-ups, records and honors track what you have achieved. Your career is also measured in the seasons you leave behind.

YOUR PLACE IN BASKETBALL

• A single-player career centered on your own athlete.
• An original basketball universe with fictional teams and players.
• Local saves, with no constant internet connection required.
