The surface looks truly great, with a ton of detail and neat reflections. The most immediately noticeable, and sadly only, next-gen improvement is the look of the ice. Similarly to FIFA 22, the next-gen jump is fairly underwhelming for this EA Sports series, but it hopefully lays the ground work for a more impressive future. The new engine does offer a few tweaks to how NHL 22 plays and looks, but it's not a groundbreaking new experience. The still-slow menus being the first possible hint, and the fact that the small development team would obviously need more than a year to switch to a new engine, so they had to go back further for their code base than NHL 21. It gives weight to a wild theory that NHL 22 is really a modified port of NHL 19/20 onto a new engine – a totally baseless claim to be taken with a huge truck of salt, to be sure, but with some of the issues and details that we've noted in this year's game, it's not completely outlandish. Even on PS5, with the extensive hardware power and an SSD, the menu speed continues to be a surprising snag. The menus have been revamped and now offer a cleaner UI and easier navigation – however, there is still plenty of pauses and lag. Players can still choose from a variety of offline and online modes, whether that's the Be a Pro revamp from last year, Franchise mode, Hockey Ultimate Team, World of Chel/EASHL, and more. If you fancy taking on the responsibilities of playing as your team’s netminder with any of the controller settings selected, you’ll need to get to grips with all of these NHL 22 Goalie controls.NHL 22 marks the switch to the Frostbite engine, and thankfully the game doesn't lose any modes or features in this big change.

For the NHL 94, Hybrid, and Skill Stick controller set-ups in NHL 22, the fighting controls are the same, which you can see below. Once you’ve initiated a fight, either by double-tapping Triangle/Y or committing a serious foul or unsportsmanlike conduct offense, you’ll then square-off against your opponent. It’s a bit more complicated with Hybrid and Skill Stick Controls as you need to use both analogues to set your grip and then direct your attack in the duel. In the NHL 94 Controls, all you have to do is time the pressing of the X/A button with the puck drop to contend for a win in the faceoff circle.
