Rumors about the future of the Need for Speed brand have returned. Last year, it was mentioned not only about the possible appearance of a remake of NFS Most Wanted, but also about a new part of the racing game.
In July there was talk about Criterion Games, which was looking for specialists to join the team – the game was supposed to break conventions and “take the series to a new level.”
Perhaps work on the new Need for Speed has already begun. The developers have allegedly invited a large group of content creators and influencers associated with the series to the studio's headquarters in Guildford, UK, in what is seen as a significant move. Criterion Games' main goal is to collect as much feedback as possible from early adopters.
Information provided by the editors of the Xfire site may indicate that the team is preparing for a big announcement of a new game. Such events are usually not held in connection with updating existing games. But for now we should wait for confirmation from the studio and EA.
