NHL 24 Review

  • NHL 24 reviewed by Nick Ransbottom on PlayStation 5. Also available on Xbox Series X/S. Narration by Mark Medina.
    What’s new in NHL 24 shows a lot of promise. The Exhaust Engine introduces satisfying mechanics that make games feel more intense, though refinement to its balance is needed to keep the defensive team competitive. The improved checking system and inclusion of HUT Moments are significant features as well. However, most of the returning game modes remain nearly untouched from the last couple of years and the introduction of a battle pass, along with some annoyingly long wait times to get into games, make it harder to cheer for.

      As someone who owns and plays this game, a 7 is pretty fair. It's fine. So while you may not like the way a 7 rating was articulated, it's still a pretty accurate review.

    Icon passing is not a multitasking nightmare it is something I've wished and hoped and prayed for many years to come back it is nothing new they used to have it in playstation 2 or 3 It is to make sure your pass is going where you want it instead of the computer dictating the wrong pass. What is still missing is icon selection on defense To make sure you pick the correct player against incoming rushes.

    Haven't played since NHL 17 and got this one for $22. It's worth $22 every 7 years.
