Pricing
Would be nice to see a time sensitive game like sports games get a price breakdown near the end of the season. My disk got wrecked and refuse to pay another 100$ for a digital download when the seaso...
NHL goes on sale for more than half off a month after launch and goes as low as 1/3 quite regularly
Also, (although not confirmed) - NHL 24 will likely hit Game Pass for Xbox in April.
Would've like the NHL to hit the monthly free games for PSN Plus, which has never been on it. Only the other EA sports title have. Would have been good for increasing visibility and population.
NBA 2k was very popular and Soccer is.. well, soccer so it would make sense to put those on PS+ (Golf was added at some point too if I'm not mistaken?); NHL is quite niche all things considered and I doubt EA would want to waste any resources on adding that to even essential tier (though I could see them implementing a free weekend or somethingnif they made a standalone HUT game).
NHL is usually added to the EA Play vault around april/may.
Visibility and population isn't the issue as they already have a decent market waiting - the problem is none of their core base wants to play because they do nothing to fix the series
Thank you so much for the information.
