Aug 10, 2023The game's graphics and gameplay were slightly improved at the cost of removing literally all content present in NHL 14 besides HUT (the mode with loot boxes.) I don't know or care if the game has improved since its release, its release state was nothing short of a scam.

Jun 21, 2023It is fun for some hours and always a couch multiplayer banger. But it lacks content and gets boring pretty fast. Overall rating: 6.6.

Jan 23, 2017Another year another disappointment. The gameplay mechanics has significantly worsen, and the way the be a pro works is just awful. Also, you will not get the full game, as several modes will be locked.

Feb 3, 2016DO NOT BUY THIS GAME NO MATTER HOW CHEAP IT IS IT IS NOT WORTH IT. mechanics of this game suck so bad. I have never been so infuriated at a game in my life. I literally tore this game in half it was so bad. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME

Jan 1, 2016Anybody who purchased this game should be given NHL 16 for free - that's the game we actually paid for.
I quite literally played it for 2 hours, and I couldn't any more.
I still feel heart broken 18 months later, after having written this review. -
Nov 11, 2015This is one of the games which is pretty much only playable while having a beer or ten with your friends, which brings us straight to the main point: you can't do it. Yep, no co-op at all, thanks EA. I've played this maybe twice. I wanted to play this with my friends maybe hundred times.

May 5, 2015I will not recommend it, keep your hold version, the graphics and the new arenas and commentating are good. But this is stop there. Coop play do not really existed. Missing the shootout action.

Mar 26, 2015Half finished game. HUT is really frustrating because players are using boosting cards too damn mutch. Graphics is amazing though, but is sad that national teams does not have real jerseys. Hope next year will be better.

Mar 16, 2015A very bare bones iteration of a great sports title. I can't in good conscience recommend spending more than $20 on this game. Go for the last gen version if you absolutely need a hockey fix.

Feb 14, 2015Ive been wanting to get a NHL game for quite a while and and am glad I did, I don't see why people complain about some missing game modes, there are plenty for hours of fun especially with the awesome gameplay and visuals, highly recomended.

Jan 28, 2015This is what happens without any real competition. EA sports re-gifts a **** updated present, with better graphics and actually takes away some of the games most popular game modes. EA sports can S my D tbh. That being said, I love hockey and I love online team play and have buddies that I play with so of course if that feature is on NHL 16 I will probably hate-buy the game

Playstation Official Magazine AustraliaNov 28, 2014Gameplay-wise, marginally better and prettier than the last. Content-wise, the worst example in recent memory of the tight-fisted annual sports game model. [Christmas 2014, p79]
