Confusion About EA Play Release Date

This EA Help page states that the Game will be coming out this Monday (October 10) with EA Play. The XF and Standard Edition Dates are incorrect on that page, but they did use to say the correct dates (10/11 and 10/14, respectively). When those dates were correct, it still said the 10th for EA Play.

What's confusing is that everywhere else it says October 11 for EA Play, including the website for NHL 23, but Madden 23 and FIFA 23 both came out on EA Play a day earlier than their listed EA Play Release Dates, meaning that NHL 23 coming out on October 10 would be following this trend.

Can we get some clarification on this? Will NHL 23 be coming out this Monday (October 10) or Tuesday (October 11) on EA Play?

    The process to download the trial on PS5 is not necessarily clear.  if you go to the NHL 23 page in the PSN store it will still show the expected download time as the 12th.  BUT, if you go to the EA Play section under Subscriptions and select NHL 23 under the trials section the page will have a separate button to download the trial.

    Hope this helps someone.
