At the 2019 NHL Awards in Las Vegas, Electronic Arts (EA) released the trailer for NHL19, the annual video game produced for multiple gaming platforms. EA has produced the game since 1991 and has been the main product for hockey fans since 2K stopped creating games for consoles with their final installment of NHL 2K11. 2K Sports has shifted their focus to mobile gaming for iOS and Android and have left EA as the only option for hockey gamers.
While NHL has improved their game since beginning their latest installments on high-powered consoles such as the Xbox One and PS4, there is still much to be desired for fans of the game.
