Sign Up For the NHL 23 Closed Technical Test Now

Hey SportsGamers,

EA have just announced that once again we will have the opportunity to play an early build of the game in the run up to the release of NHL 23 - to sign up please click here!

Typically these technical tests are fairly bare bones and feature a stripped back version of the game that will release down the line, that said however they offer a great insight into how the game is shaping up, as well as the opportunity to provide EA with our own feedback and suggestions regarding the state of play of the game. 

In terms of modes and features to expect, we are fairly confident that EASHL will be the main attraction as this always offers up a lot of feedback due to the sheer number of players that are involved in a single game. As for features, this is the first news of any kind for NHL 23, so we really have no inkling as to what EA has focussed on for the next iteration of the series - should be noted as well that it was recently announced that FIFA will make use of crossplay so that players are not segregated based on their console of choice, perhaps EA has extended this ability to the NHL developers?

As always, spots in the technical test are limited and offered on a first come first serve basis, of course providing that you sign up for the test you will undoubtedly receive a code once it is available, which EA is scheduling for late August. The code to gain access to the game will be provided in the inbox for the email of the EA account that you signed up with - we encourage all players to quickly check their EA account settings and see if it is paired with the PSN account that you think it is to avoid confusion and possible aggravation on the day. Furthermore, let it be known for our European members that our upcoming ECL season will be moving to PS5 and so we encourage all players that are signing up to try to make as much use of the technical test as possible by choosing the PS5 version. 

What are you most looking forward to see? More offensive weapons? Easier ways to defend? Improved goaltending? No matter what, please feel free to share below!
