Electronic Arts (EA) Incorporated is scheduled to release another game from its portfolio. Avid fans of hockey are looking forward for the release of National Hockey League 17 or NHL 17. EA’s Canadian Team were said to be the major developer. The game will feature the World Cup of Hockey and the entire 27 East Coast Hockey League (ECHL) of North America. EA Sports is scheduled to release three editions, Standard, Deluxe and Super Deluxe. All three editions will be available on PlayStation Store ad XBox Live.

Fans were given the chance to participate in one of the stages of the product development. EA Sports launched a systematized voting system. The player who will grace the cover have to win its match up against another player. The winning player was Vladimir Taranseko, who defeated Victor Hedman of Tampa Bay Lightning, Jamie Benn of Dallas Stars, and Joe Pavelski of San Jose Sharks.

As of date, sales of the NHL17 is not yet available. EA’s main website only accommodates pre-orders for only eight countries which include Canada, United Kingdom, Czechoslovakia, Russia, Germany, Switzerland, Finland, and Sweden. Official release will still be on September 16, 2016.

Trailers about the NHL 17 has been released last June 22. In the trailer, EA Sports emphasized the fact that no two NHL seasons are the same. Hence, the need for improvements in the gaming system intensifies. All these innovations are summarized in The Vision of NHL 17.

While the trailer looks so promising, the improvements being looked forward by the fans are covered in the Menu System, Presentation and Interface, Appearance of the Player, and other new features.

For the Menu System, a smoother and faster interface is expected. This was a result of the common complaint that the previous version’s menu tends to get slow and eventually malfunction.

NHL 16’s in arena presentation was not well appreciated. The arena appeared too dull, quiet and boring, especially on those instances of winning. It appears too unrealistic, as most fans would claim. This weakness was said to be addressed or improved in NHL 17. The real atmosphere in a live game has been replicated, making the game feel like a real broadcast. Hence, better gaming experience.

NHL 17 is most anticipated because of the presence of the highest number of lifelike players. Current reports related that more than 50 players were scanned for the game. Although the figure is still not extensive, the increase in the number of scanned players is surely a much welcomed addition.

While everyone is expecting improvements, a few items that were not addressed by NHL 17 include negotiation during mid-season among players, absence of coach challenges, no stat boosts or equipment playing for EASHL and the absence of version for PCs.

NHL 17 promises to deliver accelerated gaming experience. As mentioned on its vision, EA Games believes that no two NHL games are the same. Everything will get better. All fans have to do is to wait and enjoy the elevated experience soon. Click here to see the cheap price of NHL 17 Coins!
