EA Sports NHL 24 set to arrive PlayStation 4 & 5 in October

EA SPORTS NHL 24 has a release date for PlayStation users!

NHL 24 brings the rush and fatigue of high-pressure hockey to life with a suite of new gameplay features. 

The Exhaust Engine powered by Frostbite combines the Sustained Pressure and Goalie Fatigue systems to form concentrated pockets of opportunity that allow even more in-game situations. 

The new game will also see a couple of new features installed such as the Sustained Pressure System  which triggers for offensive players who maintain offensive pressure long enough, lowering opponent’s attributes for a limited time to open up creative opportunities.

 There will also be a Goalie Fatigue System that uses the same offensive pressure to grow goalie fatigue that affects how they react to shots.

Interestingly, 75 new goalie animations have now been introduced to bring this to life on the ice in EA SPORTS NHL 24.

Another exciting feature fans can expect in NHL 24 is the Physics-Based Contact.

Physical contact is more realistic and dynamic than ever, making body checks look and feel just like they do on the ice. 

There will also be New rag-doll and animation-based reactions that make more types of plays possible, opening up space and creating turnover opportunities through massive body checks. Body checks timed just right can even break the glass and send players tumbling onto the bench.

EA Sports NHL 24 is more connected than ever with enhanced cross-play in Hockey Ultimate Team and World of Chel to enable players compete with and against players across same-generation consoles.
