Comments

ESPN Videogames has announced that ESPN NHL 2K5 has gone gold. Developed by Kush Games, published by Sega, and codistributed by Take-Two, the hockey sim will ship on September 1. Like the recently released ESPN NFL 2K5, the E-rated game will be available for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox--and will only cost $19.99.

As is common with sports franchises, ESPN NHL 2K5 offers a similar experience to its predecessor, but it will sport enhanced gameplay and new features. Among these features are: Intense Contact Controls, which enhance in-game bodily contact and allow for physical intimidation; Dream Team Mode, which features all-star teams picked by NHL athletes and ESPN commentators; an expanded Skybox, with more than 50 unlockables, including retro jerseys and "create-a-team" logos; and a Party Mode, with 15 different hockey-themed minigames.
