NHL 24 crossplay: Will the upcoming PS5 game have crossplay functionality?
NHL fans have been eagerly waiting for updates regarding potential crossplay in NHL 24. The good news is that Hockey Ultimate Team and World of Chel modes will include crossplay. This feature was first presented in NHL 23 and was confirmed by EA Sports in the NHL 24 recent reveal trailer.
NHL 24 crossplay technology includes the PlayStation and Xbox platforms, meaning it will be available to users of the PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. Gamers on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, as well as those on PS4 and Xbox One, can challenge one another.
This all-encompassing feature fosters dynamic interactions beyond console borders and enhances the renowned Hockey Ultimate Team as well as all online World of Chel modes. While the HUT leaderboards will continue to be console-specific, more information about the Auction House will soon be made public.
By dramatically reducing matchmaking wait times, this innovation is expected to increase player engagement and foster an ideal gaming experience. The continued crossplay and interaction across platforms from NHL 23 to 24 underline its widely acclaimed reputation.
Although crossplay has advanced by allowing PS5 and Xbox Series X|S interactions, some NHL fans had hoped for more thorough integration.
Updates on NHL 24 release date and EA’s hockey installment
The official release date of the game is October 6, which is good news for both Xbox and PlayStation users. For those anxious to grab their piece of the action early, the option to pre-order the game is available, along with special goodies that promise to enhance the gaming adventure.
