NHL 94 Rewind is a retro game with today’s NHL teams and rosters, offered as an NHL 21 pre-order bonus but to be made available after the game’s launch.
Those who pre-order NHL 21 — and if you’re on the fence, we previewed it here, going into full detail of its new, narrative Be a Pro mode — will gain access to NHL 94 Rewind in all its pixelated glory from 30 October. NHL 21 comes out before that on 16 October.
You can get a very small taste of what to expect from the retro game via a tweet, below.
