If you're wondering what the NHL 23 PS5 version of the game will look like, we can promise you that next gen graphics will be the main focus.
We've got what you need to know in terms of release date, pre order rewards, the EA Play Trial, and a few trailers as well.
Let's get ready to take the ice on PlayStation in October.
NHL 23 PS5 Release Date
Before we start looking at all of the NHL 23 PS5 trailers, we're going to go over the release date for the game, which is approaching quickly.
The official release date is October 14, 2022. However, the X-Factor Edition of the game will allow you to start playing on October 11, three days earlier.
You'll also be able to play early if the EA Play Trial is released again this year, which it likely will be. This usually allows players ten hours worth of play.
We actually had a chance to play the game during the Closed Beta Tech test, to check out our thought's on those, head here.

Next Gen Presentation & Trailers
Something that several players are talking about is the presentation that we've seen for the NHL 23 PS5 version.
In fact, the new presentation and interactive Stanley Cup is something that we should all be excited to see on next gen systems.
As you can see, the graphics received a significant upgrade for the NHL 23 PS5 and other next gen systems. We've also received a new game modes trailer.
With a ton of new additions to NHL 23, we're hoping that we'll receive an exclusive PlayStation trailer before the launch of the EA Play Trial.
Game Modes available on NHL 23
Franchise Mode will be a big draw this year and the recent trailer dove right in on what we can expect once the game releases.
It would seem that most of the game modes on the NHL 23 PS5 version will expand to Xbox Series X|S and the other current gen platforms.
With the latest deep-dive, we know that there will be a few returning game modes as well but everyone is talking about Cross-Platform Matchmaking.
These are the NHL 23 game modes that you can expect:
- Franchise Mode
- World Of Chel
- Hockey Ultimate Team
- EA Sports Hockey League (EASHL)
- Be A Pro
- Cross-Platform Matchmaking
