Squad Battles pulls player-created HUT teams and allows you to play against other AI-controlled squads for cool rewards and the like. Hockey Ultimate Team (HUT) is refreshed and expanded with a new mode, Squad battles, along with daily and weekly challenges, making it deeper than ever. This doesn’t make the average NHL goalie a superman by any stretch, but it’s nice to see a modicum of realism applied to the netminders this year. Goalies also get some love with new animations, moves, and split-second decision making. I feel like I have more control on what’s happening on the ice and I’m not ashamed to admit that I even pump my fist in the air when I score a goal. My heart actually races when I play an EA NHL game, and NHL 20 amps things up even higher. The same can’t be said for previous seasons.īecause of this new RPM Tech, the game plays much faster - and that’s a very good thing.
An Ovechkin slap shot just feels different than one taken by a defenseman on, say, the Arizona Coyotes - as it should. Heck, they even have signature animations. Superstar players - like Connor McDavid or Alexander Ovechkin - skate, shoot, hit, and score based on their real stats and abilities. The gameplay and the amount of control given to gamers are still magnificent, and the new overhaul to the individual players on the ice is wonderful - Real Player Motion Tech lets them behave like their human counterparts. NHL 20 doesn’t try to break what has worked for the last few seasons, nor is this the major overhaul year that an annual sorts game undergoes every few seasons. This year’s edition has some new features, a new broadcast package, some much-needed tweaks to players, and a major expansion to the World of CHEL game mode, but at its core, it’s still classic EA hockey, and that’s a good thing. That also means that a new season of hockey is right around the corner, and EA Sports is prepared with the newest edition of its popular sports sim, NHL 20. The days are finally getting shorter, and that means that fall will be upon us shortly.
