NHL 19 is the latest ice hockey simulator from EA. One of the title’s most touted features is RPM (Real Player Motion) technology that promises better animations and more responsiveness in acceleration, high-speed skating, and pin-point turns. Other additions include outdoor rinks, new NHL ONES and NHL Alumni Pro-Am modes, as well as over 200 playable legends of NHL. The game also brings over 900 new customization items.

The standard edition of NHL 19 features defenceman P.K. Subban on its cover and comes with a number of pre-order bonuses – more on these after the jump.
