NHL 25
It’s that time of the year again — Stevivor’s Game of the Year (GOTY) Awards 2024 start today and will run straight through to the end of this year. Thanks for joining us on the journey.
As per usual, our first category is for Best Sports (or Racing, or Fighting) title of 2024. For the first time in a long while, EA’s NHL franchise has taken top spot. Congratulations, NHL 25!
“The EA NHL franchise has seen of lot of change in the last few years, both positive and negative,” Steve wrote in his review. “Despite EA throwing terms like ICE-Q at us, it finally seems like big gameplay changes from the last few years are starting to gel with one another. X-Factors plus pressure systems plus smart AI? It’s a literal gamechanger. I’ve had a blast.”
Runners-up in this category include 2K’s TopSpin 2K25 and fellow Electronic Arts title EA Sports FC 25.
NHL 25 is available on Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PS5. We’ll see you back here tomorrow for best RPG of 2024.
