NHL 98 features much faster and refined gameplay, now using four action keys instead of two, removing the need to double-tap to perform some actions. Other new features include "in-the-fly" tactics developed by Marc Crawford , then manager of the Colorado Avalanche, along with new commentary lines from Jim Hughson and Darryl Reaugh and a re-worked interface.
The game's graphics are improved from the previous version, with players appearing less angular. The use of 3Dfx support also reduces the number of pixels showing in textures. In-game presentation follows a TV-style script, zooming in on players while displaying stats during clock stoppages.
Game modes include Season (option to pick between 25 or 82 games), Playoff (best of 1, 3, 5 or 7 matches) and a Penalty Shootout mode. With 18 international teams to choose from, NHL 98 also introduces the first real international competition for its Olympic Tournament with professional players.
NHL 98 was released on 1997 .
