Building on fan suggestions like never before, NHL 16 introduces new ways to compete as a team, new features for popular single modes, and other innovations in every aspect of the game, all in the series' signature atmosphere. Features: NEW WAYS TO COMPETE AS A TEAM - Ice hockey is by definition a competitive team game. By focusing on speed, skill or physical performance, each player can contribute to the team's success regardless of their role or position on the pitch. Gather your friends and play online 6v6 team matches or online co-op, then join a team and dispute the new EA SPORTS Hockey League with specialization classes for players to deliver a more complete and balanced competitive experience. Suitable for every hockey fan – Whether you want to focus on the managerial aspect of the team, take to the field as a pro or form the team of your dreams, NHL 16 offers single modes for all needs. The "Player Morale" feature adds a new element to the "Be a GM" mode and involves managing the various personalities of the players, with direct consequences on their performance. In "Be a Pro", your actions on the ice determine the type of player you will become thanks to a new progression system. Finally, the "queen" mode of the NHL series further improves with the addition of "Hockey Ultimate Team: Single Player Seasons". Total control from every position - Whether in attack, defense or goal, NHL 16 delivers a balanced gaming experience that makes every role essential to team success. With improved offensive and defensive mechanics, players have new means to score and defend their goal. The Precision Skating feature allows players to move with unprecedented precision, both in attack and defense, while with "Seamless Pick Pickups" you can manage passes or take possession of the disc with more control and more time to set the next move. Unmatched Realism - NHL 16 faithfully reproduces the world of ice hockey with Distinct Team Arena Atmospheres, ultra-realistic players thanks to "Playoff Beards" and a "Story Driven Commentary" pack that makes games even more thrilling.
