EA Sports unveiled NBA Live 18 at the 2017 Electronic Entertainment Expo on Saturday and confirmed a new mode and demo release date.

According to IGN's Andrew Goldfarb, EA Sports formally introduced a new mode called The One, which will allow players to track their journey in one of two settings. The first is The Streets, which is for players who want to play in competitive five-on-fives in prestigious pickup-game locales.

There's also The League, which allows players to track their journey through the NBA.

According to the game's explanatory trailer released Saturday, The One is being billed as "an all-new way to pursue your legacy."

It also notes that "the respect you earn on the streets matters just as much as the rings you earn in the league."

In The Streets, players will be able to prove their worth at famous courts such as Venice Beach and Rucker Park, while also participating in the Drew League to bolster their skills and acquire new gear.

In January, EA Sports announced the NBA Live franchise wouldn't produce a game for the 2016-17 season and would push the release for its newest game to fall 2017.

"We have been on a journey with NBA Live and want to deliver something that's truly innovative and disruptive in the marketplace," EA Sports CEO Andrew Wilson said at the time, per Polygon's Samit Sarkar.

A demo is expected to be made available to the public in August.
