Badge history · Rankings
Easiest & Hardest Hall of Fame Badges
For each game, badges ranked by the attribute rating needed to reach the Hall of Fame tier. For 2K26 and 2K27, a badge that needs several attributes is ranked by the highest of them (you need all of them) and a badge that accepts any one attribute by the lowest. For 2K21 to 2K25 the data does not say which applies, so those rankings use the lowest rating among a badge's attributes. Lower means easier to reach. These ratings are the unlock requirement only, not how strong the badge is.
