EA Sports has made the decision to change the cover art for NHL 16 following rape allegations made towards Chicago Blackhawks’ Patrick Kane. EA Sports issued the following statement on Twitter:
“In light of the ongoing investigation involving Patrick Kane, he will no longer be a spokesperson for the launch of EA SPORTS NHL 16. He will not appear on the EA SPORTS NHL 16 cover nor participate in other EA SPORTS NHL 16 promotional activities.”
The new cover features Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews, as opposed to the old cover which featured Kane as well.
