NHL® Hitz™ 20-02 — Launch Title for Xbox™ Ships
NHL® Hitz 20-02 Provides Realistic Hockey Action Combined with Big Hits, Big Checks and Lightning-fast Gameplay
Description
NHL® Hitz 20-02 is the only videogame with larger-than-life, adrenaline hockey, big hits, rocket goals and exciting gameplay. Officially licensed by the NHL® and the NHLPA with real NHL® teams and athletes, NHL® Hitz 20-02 features 3-on-3 (plus goalies), lightning-fast gameplay, play-by-play commentary and a never-before-seen interactive 3D crowd. The crowd will do the wave, react to the action and increase and decrease in size between periods depending on the importance of the game and the score. Gamers will definitely feel the burn of a 125MPH slap shot as the frenzied fans heckle them from the bleachers. Mini games with skills competitions help players hone their skills before games, while multiplayer hockey allows one to four gamers to face off against one another. Gamers can also create the ultimate ice warrior with the Create-A-Player feature.
