Game news Need for Speed: The next game is it about him, the PS5 and the Xbox series in the spotlight?

PS4 and Xbox One versions cancelled?

Electronic Arts still hasn’t revealed anything official about the new installment of the Need For Speed ​​saga, but we know it’s in development at Criterion Games, it is a fact. Journalist Jeff Grub, known for his many firsts and particularly comfortable with EA game leaks (and not that, to say the least) has just to some interesting statements.

The first, is that this new opus would be released exclusively on PC, PS5 and Xbox series. PS4 and Xbox One versions were well in the works, but they were reportedly canceled as the game was delayed until this year.

Grubb also claims Miami game setting would crash or at least a city that would look like this. A context reminiscent of that of the last episode, Need for speed Heat† Finally, he states that the release of the game would be in November 2022the publication is well maintained for this year.

This time it’s the right one

To say that everything is based on this episode is a mild understatement: Need For Speed, developed by Ghost Games, has lost momentum for quite some time and failed to convince the press and public, forcing Electronic Arts was revising his plans. It’s finally the very talented studio Criterion Games (the authors of the burnout) who restored the saga, with the arduous task of returning to success.

Originally this new Need for Speed ​​was supposed to come out in 2021, but fate decreed otherwise: Battlefield 2042 laborious, EA eventually sent Criterion Games to join the FPS alongside DICE. Race results: the suspension of development of this new NFS and a postponement until 2022. If there’s a reveal, we can imagine it shouldn’t be too long.

Besides, remember that a port of Need for speed underground just coming to be official… on mobile†
