Full description
EA SPORTS™ NHL® 27 brings the identity of every NHL team to life on the ice, in the arena, and through the broadcast.
Experience Authentic Atmospheres across all 32 NHL arenas, each designed to capture the sound, spectacle, and identity of its home team. Real-world goal songs, new pregame introductions, and a fully overhauled crowd bring every building closer to its real-world counterpart.
A fully refreshed broadcast package featuring John Buccigross and Darren Pang brings new voices, modern broadcast graphics, updated visuals, and more contextual storytelling to every matchup, giving games a cleaner, more authentic NHL feel from puck drop to final horn.
Connected Franchise lets you create your league, build your team, manage your roster, and spark new and old rivalries with friends across a full online season. With up to 32 human-controlled teams, league customization, flexible scheduling, roster management, and commissioner tools, your group has the foundation to run the league your way.
On the ice, gameplay is driven by true team identity through 32 unique NHL Team Playbooks powered by NHL EDGE data. Teams now play with more recognizable structure, from how they break out of their zone to how they pressure on special teams and adjust late in close games. The result is more authentic matchups where each team feels different and strategy matters every shift.
This game includes optional in-game purchases of virtual currency that can be used to acquire virtual in-game items, including a random selection of virtual in-game items.
