With training camp and NHL hockey right around the corner, EA Sports’ annual release of the NHL Series is a perfect way to gear up for the upcoming season. Between the gameplay upgrades, game mode additions, and the brand new NHL Threes series, NHL 18 has plenty of depth to make both the grizzled veterans and newcomers happy.
While the last two iterations of the game have been looked at as “rebound years,” NHL 18 is finally the peak of the mountain as we start to reap the rewards of the rebuild. Longtime NHL fans will be excited to hear that popular modes like Franchise and Hockey Ultimate team have returned with much welcomed upgrades.
