Developer Criterion Games also plans to support the title post-launch with free updates.Other than street races, Need For Speed also brings back cop chases to the mix, with players required to use their driving skills to make the most out of Lakeshore city, or its underground streets. The title's PC version is compatible with HDR10, features double the simulation rate of its predecessor, and will launch with support for both variable refresh rate and Nvidia DLSS. The title is confirmed to also feature a freeroam component, which is perfect when you feel like learning the best routes to get around Lakeshore.


Need for Speed: Unbound's Meetups allow you to show off your style to other players, which you can also challenge to races online. You'll get to choose between a plethora of different effects but can also turn them off, with the exception of your car's basic tail smoke and trail lights. "Tags come to life when you deploy your boosting powers which are earned through actions like drifting, jumps and near misses, and appear as dramatic, customizable effects that paint the surrounding world, including illustrative lines that etch around the curves of your car," the developer explains. You'll get to choose from "hundreds of cosmetic items," including new driving effects that highlight the game's rather unique art style, which blends realistic renditions of cars with stylized driving effects inspired by graffiti art. Its car list boasts no less than 143 vehicles. NFS: Unbound promises separate campaigns for single-player and multiplayer alongside new escape mechanics that should refresh the series' cop chase sequences. The path to winning The Grand in Need for Speed: Unbound sees you tackling various race types, customizing vehicles while constantly growing your collection, and attempting to outsmart and outrun the Police who, as usual, aren't too fond of street racers.
