Every player matters
Speed, passing, shooting, defending and goaltending translate into real gameplay. Attributes drive the action.
An original arcade hockey game
Old-school speed. Modern depth.
Introducing CENTER ICE HOCKEY. Pick up a stick and play real 6-on-6 hockey. Then stay for the season, the franchise, and the stories your league creates.
The game
Simple controls. Serious hockey.
Center Ice Hockey keeps the first five minutes easy to understand and gives the next five seasons somewhere to go. Skate, pass, shoot, check, change lines then see what your choices do to the league.
Every game leaves a mark
Standings, injuries, contracts, trades and player development make a season feel like a living competition.
Pure simulation
The action stays readable and responsive: players react to the play, rules stay consistent, and every shift can turn into something unexpected.
