Diablo IV: Purveyor of Curiosities explained.Now if you own the PS4 version of NHL 22 and end up buying a PlayStation 5, I assume you’ll still be able to play the game but just not enjoy any of the next-gen features until you buy or upgrade to the PS5 version. What remains unclear is if you’ll have to pay full price again for the PS5 version if you already own the PS4 version, or if you can pay the difference in price as a sort of upgrade fee. The Standard Edition does not include Dual Entitlement on any platform, meaning you don’t get to upgrade for free. Remember, you’re getting a few enhanced features with the next-gen version, which explains the $10 increase.īut here’s where things get a bit tricky when it comes to Dual Entitlement and free upgrades from PS4 to PS5 or Xbox One to Xbox Series X|S. The Standard Edition is available for purchase on PS4 ($59.99) and PS5 ($69.99). If you buy it for Xbox One, you can play it on Xbox Series X|S and vice versa. But it comes with all sorts of bonuses and the ability to play it across the console generations. The X-Factor Edition is the most expensive option at $99.99. We actually have a detailed breakdown for what’s included with each. With that in mind, there are obviously some questions about the upgrade process, should you purchase the game on an older console and eventually want to upgrade.Īs we’ve previously pointed out, there are two versions of NHL 22 available for pre-order: the Standard Edition and X-Factor Edition. NHL 22 is truly being built as a true next-gen experience with exclusive features available only on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. While NHL 21 was playable on the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, it was still just the original current-gen experience.

NHL 22 is launching on October 15 and for the first time it will be available across next-gen (PS5 and Xbox Series X|S) and current-gen (PS4 and Xbox One) consoles.
