NHL 24
NHL 24 is an upcoming ice hockey video game made by EA Sports. It's the 33rd game in the NHL series and will come out on October 6, 2023, for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
This game has some big changes from NHL 23. There are new skill moves called total control, which let players do fancy tricks with just one button. The passing system is different too, now using the four buttons on the controller to pass the puck. Plus, there's a new body checking system that works a lot like Bruise Control from NHL 2004. You can also expect players to get checked into benches and break glass, just like before.
One cool thing about NHL 24 is that it will allow players to play together no matter what kind of console they have. This feature will be available for Hockey Ultimate Team and World Of Chel, which is different from NHL 23 where only the matchmaking was available for crossplay.

NHL 24 Hybrid Controls
In the upcoming NHL 24 game, there have been changes to the controls. Gamers want Electronic Arts (EA) to bring back the NHL 94 Controls, as it's crucial for them to play the game. These controls were known for being accessible to players with limited mobility. Another control scheme called Hybrid Controls was also removed, but EA has promised to bring it back in a later update.
Currently, there's no confirmation if NHL 94 Controls will be included in NHL 24, but the development team is aware of the requests from disabled players. Players who are affected by this change can give feedback to EA on official platforms like the NHL 24 forums.
NHL 24 Release date
The release date for NHL 24 is set for October 6, as confirmed by EA. Players who opt for the X-Factor Edition will get an early start, with three days of access before the 6th. Additionally, EA Play Members can dive in with a 10-hour trial starting from October 3. This aligns with EA's previous release schedules for the NHL franchise. A closed beta for NHL 24 was also available for a week in late August.
