“NHL® 19 is the first time we’ve been able to build and deliver
an experience that spans beyond the pros and lets fans enjoy all
forms of hockey - from frozen parking lot ponds, to big outdoor
festivals, all the way up to the arenas of the pros,” said Sean
Ramjagsingh, Senior Producer, NHL® 19. “We’re also incredibly
excited about the level of innovation that RPM Tech adds to
gameplay, which we were able to gather incredible feedback around
during our Open Beta to ensure that NHL® 19 is the best-playing EA
SPORTS NHL game we’ve ever built.”
In NHL® 19, players can compete on outdoor ponds under a unified
progression hub called World of CHEL that unites EA SPORTS Hockey
League, NHL® THREES Drop-In and two new game modes, NHL® ONES and
Pro-Am. NHL® ONES pits three players against each other in a
festival-like king of the hill tournament featuring fast-paced,
1v1v1, free-for-all fun, with no rules and no stoppages. Players
win games to rank up to new outdoor locations and defend their
position on daily leaderboards. Progression and rewards earned in
World of CHEL can be applied to each player’s Create-A-Character,
allowing them to personalize their gameplay with new player traits
and abilities, as well as express their individuality with over 900
new customization items.
At the core of NHL® 19 is cutting-edge Real Player Motion (RPM)
Technology in gameplay, which redefines the way movement and
animations are showcased. Influenced by speed and creativity in
today’s game, RPM Tech enables explosive-edge skating, giving
players more control, faster acceleration and more responsiveness
as they move up and down the ice, creating the most responsive
gameplay in franchise history. RPM Tech is paired with a new
collision physics system that introduces more contextual
body-checking, bringing bigger, badder, jaw-dropping hits that are
dynamic based on speed, size and point of impact.
Fans can pay homage to the hockey stars of the past with the
inclusion of Legends, featuring over 200 of the greatest players
from all eras, including Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Patrick Roy,
Teemu Selanne, Peter Forsberg, Jean Beliveau and more. Players can
compete as Hero Teams that combine squads of superstars from the
past and present for an ultimate fantasy matchup. Play with the
best of the best from all eras in both single-player and
multiplayer modes.
Hockey culture shines in NHL® 19 as players can create unique
looks with lifestyle gear and apparel for the first time. Hoodies,
jackets, parkas, winter knits, and more are available to wear on
the ponds, including authentic apparel from brands like Adidas.
