NHL 12 announced
EA SPORTS Unveils New Features for annual hockey game
EA SPORTS has officially announced NHL 12, shipping on September 9th in Europe and September 13th in North America.
In the revamped Be a Pro mode, players can experience the pursuit of greatness and legendary moments in your playing career, shatter historic records and cement yourself in NHL history. Additionally, the better you play, the more ice time you’ll get where you can simulate to your next shift with the Action Tracker so you’re always on the ice as you play out your entire career in pursuit of the Stanley Cup.
The NHL 12 Full Contact Physics Engine puts you in the rink with everything now live on the ice, from players to the environment - everything is interactive and in play. Experience the skill and aggression of hockey from shattered glass to flying helmets to knocking players over the boards and into the bench; crash the crease too hard and you’ll knock the net off and send the goalie flying. Size and physicality will be emphasized as bigger players will be able to throw their weight around as they screen the goalie and battle in front of the net.
This year marks the first time players will face dynamic goalies in the game. Players can knock the net off and make contact with goalies, knocking them down or out of position, as they crash the crease. Additionally, the fighting engine will get all-new goalie battles. When the action gets heated, send a message by leaving the net, dropping the gloves, and trading punches with rivals during fights.
For the first time ever lace up outdoors under the lights in one of the biggest hockey events of the season, the 2011 NHL Winter Classic at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. Inspired by the NHL GameCenter Ice Tracker, the EA SPORTS Action Tracker presents game highlights and key moments.
NHL 12 is in development at EA Canada in Vancouver. The game is expected to arrive on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
