'NHL 23 Bonus Pre-Order' is Now Available: Here Are the Additional Content You Can Receive Inside

"NHL 23," the hottest and the most anticipated sports video game this October, is set to be released next week. Upon its launch, it will be available on consoles, including Sony's PS4 and PS5.

While waiting for this EA title, here's what you need to know about its Pre-Order Bonus Content and the difference between the X-Factor Edition and the Standard Edition.

'NHL 23' Deluxe Edition

According to the official EA website of "NHL 23," the Deluxe edition of the game will be available on Tuesday, Oct. 11.

For those who will pre-order the X-Factor Edition, you will receive 4600 NHL Points, not to mention a bonus 3-day early access so you can take a sneak peek of the ice hockey game. You are also set to receive a Dual Entitlement and more perks once the Bonus Content becomes available.

'NHL 23' Dual Entitlement

Speaking of Dual Entitlement, you will notice the vast difference in your gameplay thanks to cross-playability. Although the PS5 is only one generation away from PlayStation 4, your gaming experience will significantly boost by this feature, especially if you're playing on a next-gen console.

Additionally, if you have an older console, you can only access the particular game version that's only exclusive there. If you have a newer console, you can freely switch your game progress between the two devices, say, for example, if you have a PS4 and PS5.

Apart from that, another perk that you will receive is the availability of both downloadable versions of the game. This shows that only those who will purchase the Ultimate Edition can get this advantage.

If you want to play with your friends who have a previous console, the cross-play feature is a crucial bonus to consider. However, you need to make sure that both you and your friends are playing the same version of the game to make the most out of it.
