The NHL series will finally offer real jerseys of the -apkrig national teams
EA Vancouver developers in charge of the NHL hockey series have announced a very gratifying news. Electronic Arts has managed to enter into a partnership with the International Ice Hockey Federation – IIHF – ending the era of ugly national team jerseys that players have been complaining about for years. Although World Cup exceptions came in several parts of the series, for the vast majority of years, the jerseys of the national teams of colors seem to resemble the real ones, but instead of the appropriate logo, only the flag shines on their chests. However, this inconvenience is probably resolved and it is definitely not the only news that the current NHL 22 update brings. Juniors and, as in the case of the FIFA series, women finally joined the game.
“NHL 22 is becoming a global issue. The IIHF license comes into play, which includes playable men’s, junior and women’s teams, “reads the basis of the announcement directly from the developers, who describe in more detail in a short article what the update has already released. First and foremost, these are World of Chel and HUT themed items, which will be awarded to anyone who enters the game between December 9 and January 10. These are the mentioned jerseys that can be put on their players in this distracted mode, and for HUT it is a card with Auston Matthews in the USA national team and – again – those jerseys.
Perhaps an even more interesting addition, however, is the addition of a full-fledged World Cup regime, which was lacking in the NHL. Although the community took over falsely The championship play-off mode, in which national teams can be mixed, the group stage has always been missing, as well as other elements that increase the quality of the overall presentation. The players will see the championship in January and it does not only apply to men, but also to women. EA Vancouver promises authentic processing of the entire format and the opportunity to finally reach the top with its national team. To give fans an idea of how everything will work, a third surprise is coming, the NHL World Championship 22, which is the traditional New Year’s Eve term available now.
It is important to note, however, that team formations – especially junior ones – are unlikely to fully reflect reality, as they will not feature university players. Here, EA encounters a collision in negotiations with the NCAA, which does not want to entrust its players to developers for free. Nevertheless, EA undertakes to negotiate with the IIHF on the most accurate sets possible, which will also come into play in the form of updates when the rosters are closed before the upcoming championships. And finally, one more message that can solve this problem – NHL 22 finally offers sharing its own rosters, as the developers presented before the game’s release. This can finally lead to small ones modifications, or just more accurate championships, regardless of licenses and other problems that EA must officially face.
