The next-generation hockey player Authentic player and equipment models The next-generation hockey player has been rebuilt from the ice up. Now player models have three distinct layers – the body, equipment, and jersey. Each layer interacts independently, making every contact with the puck or other players even more realistic. Dynamic cloth technology adds an extra layer of realism as it reacts to the player's movement as they explode up the ice, helping bring the speed of the game to life. Unprecedented player likeness Powered by the same technology that brought the most realistic representation of the athlete to EA Sports UFC, NHL 15 delivers groundbreaking player likeness, emotion, and animation. From the strides a player takes to get across the ice to the emotion on their face after scoring a game-winning goal, the players are as real as they've ever been.

NBC Sports game day presentation The most realistic broadcast package in a video game to-date is possible because of a new partnership with NBC Sports. Set the scene with the NHL on NBC crew welcoming you to the city during the game intros and immerse yourself in an experience that matches what you see on television with NHL on NBC graphics and branding.

Take a look through the glass and you'll see fans hold up signs with your name on them, costume wearing superfans, or even sections full of team rivals rooting against you. Living crowds The crowd is alive. Feel the crowd behaviour change after dropping the gloves, landing a big hit, or scoring a clutch goal. Individual behaviours are mapped to each person in the crowd, as they anticipate the play, taunt players, clap to music from the dynamic Jumbotron or even take a quick break from the action to snap a selfie and immortalise their experience.
