ATTRIBUTES The NHL EDGE data that powers ICE-Q 2.0 is used to inform player attributes like skating acceleration, top speed, slap shot power, and wrist shot power. This provides authentic differentiation for in-game superstars and offers players exciting strategic advantages.
TENDENCIES What makes a superstar stand out is their individual tendencies on the ice. Highlighting their signature moves — like Draisaitl’s low shooting spot on the goal line and Trouba’s proclivity for laying the body — brings their on-ice character to life. It’s those unique ingredients that make superstars great, and those behaviours are complemented by dynamic new X-Factors for increased impact.
GOALIE CREASE CONTROL SYSTEM The Goalie Crease Control System brings fresh fire to the netminder with an upgraded awareness between the posts, thanks to new close-range saves, poke checks, as well as upgraded AI positioning that gives goalies increased control over the blue paint. These real-time reactions allow goalies to respond fluidly to changes in puck direction with split-second authenticity.
ICE-Q 2.0 PRESENTATION When you pick up the sticks, you can feel the difference that ICE-Q 2.0 brings, but now with all-new presentation elements, you get detailed, visualized breakdowns of that impact. Expanded replay insights highlight everything from skating speed, shot speed, and shooting percentage, to save zones, threat analyses on goal, and team stat comparisons. Enhanced broadcast graphics showcase player stats at faceoffs to amp up the in-game storytelling, along with new multi-story visual and audio replay packages that highlight important, sequential game narratives, like when a D-Man of Makar’s ilk orchestrates a steal that leads to a late game-changing goal.
X-FACTORS X-Factors enhances an arsenal of 28 abilities over five different categories with unique animations, tactical gameplay outcomes, and tiers of impact. This makes X-Factors a formidable on-ice weapon, while also helping superstars truly feel like superstars, including with bold new presentation elements. So when Auston Matthews fires off his Quick Release X-Factor, its speed and power may catch the opponent’s goalie by surprise, just like he does on the regular IRL. In World of Chel, players can now also utilize the all-new X-Factor build system to endlessly create, tweak, and experiment with their player builds.
