The release date for when NHL 23 early access will come out is just over a week away, and fans will be able to sample an EA Play 10-hour trial before committing to a purchase.
EA has launched two of their biggest annual sports properties with FIFA and Madden, and now their yearly ice hockey release is on the cusp, too. Player ratings have been revealed, and Conor McDavid is the fastest centre for men, meanwhile Mari-Phillip Poulin has the highest overall of any woman in the game.
The game looks fantastic as always, and soon all of us will be able to hit the ice ring in both demo and full format.
