NBA 2K20: How to scan your face

Do you want to see yourself right in the middle of the NBA 2K20 court as a player? You can do this with the companion app where you can scan your face and upload it to the game. Here is the best way to do it and to make sure you capture the best scan of your face to send to the game.

How to scan your face for NBA 2K20

The first step is to download the appropriate application. You're going to want to want to look at the MyNBA2K20 app, and you can get it for an iOS or an Android smart phone. Downloading takes a little while. Once this is done, you want to sign in to the account you are playing on, for example PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, or PC. This configuration allows you to synchronize the application with your game. You can thus connect the two to be able to send the photos in a transparent way.

Once you have logged in your account, you will see the “Face Scan” option. If this is your first time using the app, you will need to go through the key elements of how to read the app, which you will go through quickly. You don't need to worry about it too much.

After that, and you click on “Face Scan” option, the app will walk you through several steps to take photos of your face. You will adjust your face left and right, indicated by several on-screen prompts. We recommend that you stay outside rather than indoors.

When you have completed the plans, you will have the opportunity to review them. You can retake any of the photos you take if you want to make adjustments. Make sure they represent your face as much as possible, given the constraints of your smartphone. Confirm the photos and upload them.

The next step is the MyCareer section, where you will process these images. It will take a while, and if it takes a very long time, if the download process 100% indicates nothing is happening, restart it. Several others have noted that this happens to them and that by resetting the app, the face scan is downloaded immediately afterwards.

Once the download is complete, the scanned face you just displayed will be the first option on the MyPlayer head selection screen. You change your scanned face from here, changing facial hair, skin tone, and additional edits to better suit your appearance in the game.
