A new NHL 24 gameplay tuner is scheduled to arrive tomorrow, May 23 at 1:00 PM ET. The tuner will eliminate the accelerated clock during the final minute of the third period and overtime and replace it with 60 real-time seconds to generate more excitement at the end of the game. They also adjusted some of the underutilized X-Factors to allow players to create new strategies. Check out the details below.
