Pricey pond hockey is officially a thing of the past.
EA SPORTS NHL announced that the reveal trailer for the fully revamped Be A Pro mode in NHL 26 will be unveiled at 11am EST Aug. 19 on the EA SPORTS NHL YouTube channel.
From the initial gameplay trailer and deep dive trailer we have some idea of a few of the changes that will be coming to Be A Pro including new cutscenes, character, and ability to play in the AHL and World Juniors.
With the new X-Factor system it will give players the opportunity to define their playstyle and continue to progress through the three tiers as you move further along in your career.
Be A Pro is an extremely popular mode within the NHL franchise and has been several years since there has been a major change.
Check back in with us on Tuesday for a full breakdown of the Be A Pro reveal trailer.
