NHL 22 - PS5
Frostbite engine added to NHL 22 PS5
The legendary Frostbite engine is coming to EA Sports NHL 22 for the first time ever. NHL 22 PS5 offers huge visual improvements to both current and next-generation console games, representing one of the biggest steps forward in graphics for the franchise. Whether it's redesigned player likenesses or fabric animations that bring characters to life, or dynamic lighting that creates a truly immersive game environment, you'll see improvements everywhere.
Improved hockey stick physics in NHL 22 PS5
New realistic stick interactions enhance the physicality of the game and make puck battles more believable, fair and skill-based. A better system of contact between the stick and the opponent's body results in a more accurate assessment of illegal interventions, for example when the puck is poked out. You'll also experience more realistic movement along the fence without the stick going through textures.
Enjoy new animations and X-Factor of famous players
Experience the power of superstar X-Factors in NHL 22 PS5, a groundbreaking game system that lets you take full advantage of the exceptional abilities of star players - their presence on the ice is now more impactful than ever. Reserved only for the league's elite players, the Superstar X-Factor abilities separate the best from the rest and make the superstars look just as real as their live counterparts.
Make the most of your hockey players' abilities
Players are assigned one ability for the zone that dominates their game, which allows them to outperform their opponents. Zone capabilities are always on and are automatically activated under the appropriate conditions. For example, the zone ability that improves the long pass is activated when attempting a long pass (but has no effect on a short pass). Specific zone abilities are only available to a limited number of players and in some cases are even exclusive. This means that certain players have unique abilities in NHL 22 PS5.
