E3: Puck Off NHL 23 Trailer Debuts New Gameplay Confirms Crossplay
Ice to see you.
The debut trailer for NHL 23 comes out swinging, with some of that classic E3 "stage demo cringe" that's been hard to come by these past years. Cover stars Trevor Zegras and Sarah Nurse group up to guide you through some of the new features, and things are much as you'd expect. That said, it looks like NHL 23 is set to feature some pretty noteworthy additions, alongside the usual smaller scale "marketing bullet points".
The biggest new feature is by far crossplay. Xbox and PlayStation gamers will be able to matchmake with one another now, though according to the NHL 23 website, it won't available at launch. More interesting --and disappointing — is the fact that cross-play won't be multi-generational. Xbox One users will be able to play with PS4 players, and PS5 will be with Xbox Series X|S, but those two groups don't appear to be able to intersect. This is likely due to gameplay differences between generations, so at least matchmaking should take less time when playing HUT or World of CHEL.
