From Press Release:
NHL Frenzy will feature all of the power-ups from Arcade and Arcade+ and will now add brand-new Stadium Events featuring UFOs with special beams for teams to avoid and use to their advantage. More details below:
- Abduction Beam: An overhead UFO will blast down a tractor beam onto the ice and any players caught in the beam will be pulled out
- Laser Attack – The UFO will send down laser beams that zap and split the ice leaving behind trails of fire that will take out any player passing through the area for a period of time
Bonus rewards up for grabs include 100 Martian Pucks, 2X Player XP and 2X Battle Pass XP.
As a refresher, NHL Arcade is a limited-time 3-on-3 WoC event that brings back Big Heads in a modernized version of the fast-paced all-action arcade classic. Teams scramble to be the first to five goals with no glass, rules or stoppages in the gameplay. All players have the same OVR rating and height/weight making power-ups and obstacles the true difference maker. Players can team up with friends or jump into the game as solo skaters or their team’s goalie. Complete details can be found in the NHL Arcade blog and trailer here.
The wacky no-holds-barred gameplay of NHL Frenzy will run until the event module ends on March 10. Players can expect more NHL Arcade events to run throughout the year.
