"Jay-Z will act as an executive producer for upcoming sports simulation NBA 2K13, it has been revealed. The rapper&amp;#039;s role as executive producer was confirmed during a trailer. His contribution to the title remains unclear, however.  The debut NBA 2K13 video features the likes of Michael Jordan, Blake Griffin, Kevin Durant and Derrick Rose. The brief teaser trailer hints at big changes to the franchise, saying that while a champion doesn&amp;#039;t &amp;#039;rest, stop or settle&amp;#039;, neither does 2K Games. The game releases for the Xbox 360, PS3, PlayStation Vita, Wii and PC on October 2 in North America. A European launch date is yet to be finalised. It will also release for the Wii U. Listed for a &amp;quot;holiday&amp;quot; launch, it will likely be available within the first few months of the console&amp;#039;s release. Previous NBA 2K games have been well received, earning near-unanimous praise for their presentation, depth and polish. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
