Nba Live 13 was the new installment in the NBA Live series for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, developed and published by Electronic Arts. According to Andrew Wilson, EA Sports executive vice president, the game was meant to be a revival of the NBA Live franchise, after the disappointing NBA Elite 11, delayed indefinetely and then released only for iOS, with the console version definetely cancelled.
Wilson said on IGN:
Making great games is not easy and we’re just not there yet on NBA Live 13. Having continued to look at the game over the past few days, it’s clear that we won’t be ready in October. And rather than launch midway through the season, we’re going to sit out the full year and stay focused on making next year’s game great..
A game developer confirmed on Twitter that the game was planned as a downloadable game.
