Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the improved gameplay, ease of use, realism, and price of NHL 19, with many praising the enhanced controls and new features. However, customers are negative about the changes made to the poke check mechanic, finding it overly restrictive and prone to penalties, and expressing some disappointment with the lack of significant updates to career mode.

    Fun game, but I miss hockey games that were a little more simple. I do appreciate they tried to make a simpler control scheme for beginners, but I would prefer an advance level of play with simple controls. It just sometimes becomes cumbersome.

    New RPM makes skating feel very realistic. Nice changes to online play with additional features. Other offline modes not changes much if that is what you prefer

    I’ve been playing EA sports games since the begining. This game has always been the best. It is not a surprise that it wins best sports game consistently.

    Only 1 rink to play 6's on but no announcers is a plus. poke checking will get you penalized 99% of the time if you aren't positioned right. Matchmaking is awful. have had 2 full 6's games out of 40.

    With the updated skating and collision physics this game has been transformed into a great game. the NHL 3's and out door modes are fun too.

    NHL 19 is so life like people will walk in the room and say "WHO'S PLAYING"? Thinking they are watching a live game on tv.

    Another strong effort by the EA Sports team, this game has a similar feel to that of NHL 2019 with more options.
