Players to Ultimate Team and Makes Players Greater Together, Now
Available Worldwide (Photo: Business Wire)
“The NHL franchise has always prided itself on being one of the
best team-based sports game experiences you can enjoy with friends,
whether that friend is across the couch or the globe,” said Mike
Inglehart, Creative Director, EA Vancouver. “This year, NHL 23
continues to bring fans closer together with cross-platform
matchmaking and the expanded feature set highlighting women’s
hockey.”
For the first time ever, IIHF Women’s National Team members can
now play alongside men in the same HUT squad, meaning players can
line up Team Canada’s Sarah Nurse alongside Ducks phenom Trevor
Zegras to make their very own dream team of the sport’s best
players. Beyond the ability to play together, both men’s and
women’s national teams will continue to play an important role in
the mode, as national team players will have both base and master
items incorporated into HUT events. Players can now also compete in
a variety of new rotating game themes in HUT Rivals, and NHL 23 has
introduced three new tiers of HUT Rivals Rewards based on wins or
win streaks.
NHL 23 is back on the Frostbite™ engine for the second year,
continuing to push the franchise forward as the most authentic and
immersive hockey experience yet. This latest iteration of the
franchise introduces a fully interactive Stanley Cup Celebration
where players will be able to choose who receives the Cup next as
the crowd celebrates with sparklers and confetti and the commentary
justifies your choice based on 65 complex stories accurate to your
team. Additionally, a post-game sequence will also feature your
customized player’s name etched into the Stanley Cup. NHL 23 has
also revamped key moments like hat trick celebrations, giving them
unprecedented levels of player customization and control, as well
as overhauled levels of Crowd Awareness and Moment to Moment
Reactions that will immerse players in the action like never
before. NHL 23 represents a massive leap in terms of visual
richness with enhanced character details, with a new skin shading
model and crucial details like the accumulation of sweat that
changes how light reflects throughout the game.
The addition of Last Chance Puck Movement gameplay animations
injects excitement into important in-game moments, with more than
500 new Stumble Action animations, loose puck plays and enhanced
goalie AI. Whereas contact in previous NHL installments often
resulted in a loss of offensive player control, Last Chance Puck
Movement brings EA SPORTS NHL closer to the reality of on-ice
hockey plays by allowing players to authentically react to contact
and still create dynamic plays in the moment.
Coming in November 2022, the introduction of cross-platform
matchmaking will further strengthen NHL 23’s position as a
best-in-class social experience. Cross-platform matchmaking will
allow players to square off against opponents on the same console
generation for World of Chel and HUT modes, creating larger player
pools and shortening queue times to ensure players have more
options to face off and spend less time waiting to take the ice.
More information can be found here.
The fan-favorite Franchise Mode returns to NHL 23, now with
deeper levels of customization than ever before for the most
dedicated players to design a bespoke Chel experience. New
customization options include adjustments to the numbers of teams,
games played, divisions, conferences, playoff rounds, league salary
cap and more.
EA SPORTS NHL continues to offer HUT content migration to ensure
a smooth experience for players across console generations.
Following a November update, players who start playing NHL 23 on
PlayStation®4 or Xbox One will be able to transfer their HUT Team
value and progress to the next generation of their respective
platforms in PlayStation®5 or Xbox Series X|S.
Developed by EA Vancouver and EA Bucharest, EA SPORTS™ NHL® 23
is rated E10+, and now available on PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series
X|S, as well as PlayStation®4 and Xbox One. Also available now, the
EA SPORTS NHL 23 X-Factor Edition includes the PlayStation 4 and
PlayStation 5 or Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S versions of the game,
4600 NHL Points, five World of Chel X-Factor Zone Ability Unlocks,
two Be A Pro X-Factor slot unlocks and XP Boost and Bonus Trait
points. For more details, please visit
