New Criterion Need For Speed Game Revealed

by Matt Miller on Jun 04, 2012 at 11:02 AM

Like the Most Wanted games that have come before, the new Need For Speed Most Wanted will pit criminals against cops.

The makers of Burnout and the recent Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit reboot are hard at work on a new iteration of the Need For Speed Most Wanted series. 

The gameplay on display during the EA conference looks insanely fast, with a boosted yellow sports car on the run through a debris-strewn cityscape as cops close in from all sides. The gameplay is highly reminiscent of Criterion's previous efforts in Burnout Paradise, which is just fine, because that racing game was a lot of fun. 

We'll offer more details on Need For Speed Most Wanted as they become available in the coming days. Most Wanted is targeting a release on October 30th.
