When does NHL 25 Come Out?
The new entry in the NHL franchise has been announced, with NHL 25 aiming to deliver the most authentic and immersive hockey game ever.
EA Sports announced new features are coming to the game, which left fans eager to try the new title and to know when NHL 25 will be released.
So let’s find out when the most anticipated hockey game of 2024 will launch!
When does NHL 25 Come Out?
NHL 25 will be released on Friday, 4 October, so the next title in the NHL franchise is still quite far off.
Users who buy the NHL 25 Deluxe Edition will have seven days early access to the game, being able to start playing on Friday, 27 September.
Players can already pre-order the game, which is only available for the Xbox Series X/S and the PlayStation 5 this year. This means the NHL becomes the second EA Sports franchise, after College Football 25, to leave the last-generation platforms.
The decision left the NHL community divided, but many fans are hoping that the developers only having to focus on current-generation platforms will help them deliver a better game.
Players want an NHL game that feels fresh and unique, and perhaps this decision can help that come to fruition. However, only time will tell if that is indeed the case.
NHL 25 Cover Star
For the first time, the NHL cover star features three brothers, Quinn, Jack, and Luke Hughes.
This is a perfect way to symbolize the start of a new era for the NHL franchise. With last-generation platforms being abandoned, and the game promising some massive improvements, having such an historic cover makes total sense.
Fans are hoping that the game, just like the cover, can also be a historic one, for good reasons of course, and bring back the golden days of the NHL.
The features announced in the NHL 25 reveal trailer are promising, but the majority of the NHL community is still apprehensive.
Fans want to see if the feature will actually have the significant impact that is being advertised, or will just be slightly improvements. So users are waiting to get their hands on the game and not be carried away with the hype surrounding the new features.
