NHL Live 99 is a continuation of the Electronic Arts sports series with the best hockey league in the world. The game has a better graphic design, more beautiful animations, more evocative sounds and music, and above all, it reflects the atmosphere and hockey games, which for years now places this sports series at the top of the popularity lists.

In the game you will find a set of 27 NHL teams and a dozen or so more important international teams.
