Oct 14, 2022The worst NHL game to date. That’s right, NHLPA 93 on the SEGA, NHL 04 on the GameCube, even NHL 07 on the PSP are all more enjoyable hockey games than NHL23 on todays modern consoles. There’s nothing good added this year whatsoever, just more recycled trash. Devs 20 years ago had way more passion and creativity, hockey games are just dead now.

Jan 6, 2023Game is such garbage. Game hasn't been good since 2014. As sales figures indicate a lack of care about their product by the company.
-
Oct 15, 2022Blatant false advertising. They made a whole trailer advertising updated intros but forgot to mention they only exist for six teams and only occur once every eight games for the teams they included. Removed the the broadcast experience and only give you a quick play option. This is no longer a simulation experience, missing the 2k games now more than ever.

Nov 11, 2022Unplayable buggy mess, don’t bother. Did I mention that it’s also a fraud, you can’t advertise a game a pull out the featured content.

Oct 23, 2022I've said it before, and I'll say it again Frostbite engine is a cross platform FPS engine. Not a fast paced sport engine. A passionate game developer would take a year off to improve the game in all aspects (like 2k with it's WWE games), but this is EA. They release unfinished games for full price, but we keep falling for it because it's the only mainstream hockey game in town.

Jan 7, 2023Honestly, HUT is garbage. The matchmaking is way unfair. My 84 ovr team got matched with a 95 ovr team in division 5…. World of CHEL is kinda fun, but very raging at times. They haven’t done anything new to the Pro Career. Still feels like NHL 22 and 21 tbh, it’s fun in the pro career, but everything else is garbage.

Jan 6, 2023This game is pathetic. Charging anything more then $20 is robbery. Feels worse in almost every way then NHL 22. Removing presentation features is just plain stupidity. First time buying a game and feeling like I've been robbed, and I bought this for 50% off. Selling it instantly and never buying another EA sports game.

Jan 1, 2023Another uninspired "update" with no real changes from previous years.......
-
Jan 3, 2023It’s a very good Hockeygame but all this EA Hater don’t understand it. Don’t buy the X - Factor Edition if you don’t play online modes like Hut or something but for £70 it’s a good game.

Oct 25, 2022Just a few innovation, but still good hockey! And EA, trust us, nobody cares about women hockey…
-
Oct 15, 2022While I still don't like that the Superstar X-Factors are returning and found the Frostbite engine to be a bad fit, the improvements on the gameplay and other features make NHL 23 a very good ice hockey game.

Feb 10, 2023The addition of cross-platform gameplay is a very welcome addition to the franchise, but that is essentially the extent of meaningful changes made from NHL 22. While gameplay can sometimes be smooth and satisfying, there are still way too many bugs needing a fix. This game is the epitome of a yearly sports game being a glorified roster update.

Apr 23, 2023I enjoyed this game 15 years ago. Terrible AI, terrible mechanics, and almost zero content make this game hard to play. All cosmetics are the exact same as they were in 2008. The graphics are quite well done, the game is beautiful.

May 13, 2023The worst NHL game so far. It look same as 5 previous editions. Game has many glitches and bugs that completely destroy a game feeling and take away any pleasure of playing this game. Don't waste your money and time on that trashy game.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jan 25, 2024It's getting harder and harder to find revolutionary elements without expanding the NHL itself. But despite these challenges, this year's edition of virtual hockey has something going for it and offers surprisingly great gameplay. [Issue#323]
-
Nov 29, 2022NHL 23 is a good if not revolutionary entry into an already commendable simulation sports game. It might not bring anything new to the ice, but it builds on the already pretty precise gameplay and its additions to the current modes make it a very solid entry to the series.
-
Nov 28, 2022The NHL series really needs some competition. Once again, we get improvements in just one game mode while the others gather dust. This year, however, the amount of joy that has been added feels greater than usual.
