  • Sharebar

Electronic Arts is working on a new Need For Speed game, a game that promises to come with many new things for hardcore fans. We are talking about the Need For Speed: The Run game.

In this brief review we are going to talk a bit about this new NFS game, a game that comes with the possibility of getting out of the car, compete under extreme snow conditions, to run from the cops or to stick with the classic NFS Porsche style.

In  NFS: The Run you can also drive on snow.

Storyline Review

The story of the new Need For Speed: The Run is relatively simple and it puts you in the role of Jack, a pilot that enters a giant race that takes place from San Francisco to New York, and the stake is a 25 million dollars prize. The gaming possibilities seem endless and you will have to do on your own, without allies!

Get Out of The Car

Thanks to the new Frostbite 2 graphics engine, NFS The Run offers the possibility of exploring the game on foot because you can get out of the car. Don’t think that you can simply go out for a walk because most of the times you will have a precise purpose: to run from the police, steal another car, or to fight with the police. The idea sounds a lot like GTA, however it remains to be seen how will it be implemented in the new Need For Speed game.

Racing on Snow

The new NFS: The Run also comes with diversity regarding the environment during a race. So, based on your location, you will be able to race on the snow and cars will be difficult to handle.

Classic races from the legendary NFS: Porsche

EA also thought about users who do not want to quit the beautiful races from older games reason for which the new features above will alternate with classic NFS Porsche races. And here we must say that things look awesome as per the trailer below
