2K Sports has reported that its basketball title, NBA 2K10, has sold over 2 million units worldwide, marking a 60 percent increase in sales on last year's title.

"We're proud of what we've accomplished this year with NBA 2K10, and this milestone is another fantastic reason to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the NBA 2K franchise," said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K.

"We would like to thank all of our loyal fans for their dedicated support and look forward to the continued success of this title."
