| Officially licensed by the NHL and the NHLPA, this year's version of the Midway Sports hit franchise caters to hockey and action game fans by delivering a total hockey experience that combines even more realistic NHL hockey attributes without leaving behind Hitz signature hard-checking adrenaline-style highlight reel action.
As the only dedicated adrenaline-style hockey videogame franchise for next-generation platforms, NHL Hitz 20-03 showcases over-the-top three-on-three (plus goalies) gameplay with players who leap, glide, check, pass, and score on would-be defenders. This newest version of Hitz runs up the score on the hockey videogame category with new features such as an in-depth New Season mode that enables detailed statistic tracking, player trades using trade logic, a playoff tree, and official NHL awards. NHL Hitz 20-03 also suits up with bigger, stronger, and faster players, as well as improved goalie logic, behavior, animations, and control, which make it tougher to score.
Going for the gold, Midway signed an exclusive deal with Canadian 2002 Olympic Gold Medalist Chris Pronger. Known for his powerful skating and intimidating defense, the St. Louis Blues defenseman and former league MVP (1999-2000 season) appears on the package cover and in the NHL Hitz 20-03 advertising materials. |
