Thanks to the improved computing and processing power of the PlayStation 4 and X-Box One, physics can now be applied to every player on the ice. The 12 Player NHL Collision Physics now allows for multi-player collisions. Real puck physics will now find the puck able to hop over sticks, squeeze through openings (including under the arm of the goalie, ricocheting off/through jersey), and deflect in numerous, unpredictable ways.
With the improved collision and puck physics, the EA SPORTS NHL team hopes to replicate the unpredictability and physicality of the sport. Continue on to see the trailer and share your thoughts with the community.
In addition to the improved physics system, player models now have three levels of detail: the body, the equipment, and the jersey to help improve the visuals and realism of the game. For more on the improved 'next-generation hockey player,' visit this thread.
