After skipping over 2014 the Need for Speed franchise returns in 2015 with Need for Speed - just that's right no subtitles. Persistent rumours said we were getting Underground 3 and while that's not the case the description makes it sounds as if we may be getting a modern take on the Underground theme.
Producer Marcus Nilsson from Ghost Games (Need for Speed: Rivals), had this to say about the new game: "Need for Speed is one of the most iconic names in gaming, and we're returning it to greatness in this reboot."
Via the press release:
"Fuelled by EA:s own car culture community, Speedhunters, Need for Speed will deliver an experience that's grounded in authentic car culture by diving into the rich world of past, present and emergent trends of the urban car scene. This collaboration with Speedhunters in the research and development of the game means the level of detail and real-world authenticity will envelop gamers in an exciting world to discover and enjoy in a way that only Need for Speed can deliver."
