    It’s ok. It’s like the last 5/6 years, so if you played those you know what to expect. No presentation still, and faceoffs need to be completely redone.

    It's the same game as last year and here I am again. Waited until Black Friday to get the game half off. No way is this a $70 game, but at $35 or less I think it makes sense for sports game fans. Best of luck.

    I have been waiting years for the Be a Pro to be overhauled, and this was the year! I am an offline player so this update was big for me. I also like the stats driven attributes the players have which makes it much more realistic than just an arbitrary/subjective human interpertation of the players.

    Yes, I agree with the philosophy of EA sports team just being a roster update, but there is something slightly different about the game this year whether it’s quicker or a little more sharp bottom of mine I like hockey and I’m enjoying it

    I mean you only get these games if you like hockey and it's basically the only show in town. It's fun and flawed but overall a solid game this year

    Not as much fun as NHL 25 still playable, but I can’t figure out how to check and get people who have cheat codes

    Same game essentially as the previous few. Some minor improvements,bit actual gameplay feels almost identical to previous years. Not worth full price. If I didn't get money off wouldn't have purchased. It's fine, if you have played any NHL game the last 5-7 years you know what to expect with some cosmetic changes. Recommend if it's been a while since you bought the game or you never purchased one. If you need updated rosters wait for a sale.

    I mean, if you play Chel, you know this game is very mid. But then again, I will still buy every year and still enjoy playing threes with the homies. I wish they would make a change, but it doesn't look like that's happening anytime soon.

    A lot of fun. Very realistic. As long as you put it on pro it’s the most realistic and most hardest level obviously.
