Earlier today, EA Sports unveiled the trailer for its new hockey game “NHL”.

The three Hughes brothers will be featured on the “Deluxe” cover, while there will also be “standard” copies featuring either Jack or Quinn on the cover.

The cover featuring the three brothers is magnificent, by the way:

In the trailer, EA Sports unveils new features with artificial intelligence.

EA Sports talks about an “on-ice evolution” that offers new abilities, upgrades and a point skating mode… All created with the help of artificial intelligence.

But the unveiling of the new game isn’t making everyone happy, and that’s to be expected.

Why do I say that?

Because the new edition of NHL 25 will not be available on Xbox One or PS4.

Only those with “next-gen” consoles will be able to play it, i.e. PS5 or Xbox Series X/S users:

According to EA, the game was built for “New Gen” consoles because there are features that wouldn’t have been possible on the Xbox One or PS4.

At this level, I’m guessing that more details will emerge in the next few weeks, when the company releases a second, more in-depth trailer for the game.

That said… It’s really disappointing – and frustrating – for people who play on the “old” consoles.

It kind of forces players to buy a new one… Because otherwise, they won’t be able to play the new game of the year.

That’s pretty ordinary.

Finally, for those interested, the game will be released on October 4, a few days before the start of the NHL season.


In Overtime
