If I buy nhl 21 on the ps4, will I be able to have on ps5 or I will need to buy it twice?

No. You just need it once as it will play on both PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X. Unless you want it for both PlayStation and Xbox. In that case, you would need to buy it twice.
Community ManagerNext Gen Dual Entitlement applies to Madden and FIFA only, sorry.
Community ManagerNHL 21 will not have a specific PS5/Xbox Series X version but will be playable on the new systems.
@EA_AljoWill I need to buy it twice

If you buy the physical version on PS4, you'll need to buy the disc drive PS5. I don't believe you'll get any sort of digital code on thr ps5 store

The wording of this is a bit confusing because you listed four different versions of the game followed by the word "both."
When the guy re-asked the question he was obviously confused by your answer the first time, and yet instead of being kind and/or helpful, you were snarky about it and re-posted the same poor answer, unchanged.
What we're looking for here is some clarity.
Community ManagerThere was no snark intended at all. I was trying to be clear on this so I'm very sorry that's not how it was interpreted. NHL 21 is forward compatible with the new consoles. You only need to buy it once unless you want it for both PlayStation and Xbox. Then, you would need to buy it once for each console.
Thanks dude
