NHL Hitz has been reinvented, without leaving behind the edginess that has made Midway Sports the leader and successful publisher of extreme-style league-licensed sports videogames. Officially licensed by the NHL and the NHLPA and featuring real NHL teams and athletes, NHL Hitz Pro retains the well-known Midway Sports "edge," but with a new emphasis on realistic NHL features, and will showcase 5-on-5 gameplay, game rules and penalties, and for the first time, live online head-to-head gameplay on Playstation 2. NHL Hitz Pro also includes NHL legitimate, 23-man player rosters that bring together pro players and authentic team lines with real offensive and defensive team formations.
