Need For Speed
The acclaimed Need For Speed title from the past is coming back as we have the reveal of Need For Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered
Some rivalries never seem to die, as it seems, and it looks like this is the reason we are seeing Need For Speed come back here for the PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Switch. Not in the way of a full new title, mind you, but in the way of a remaster from one from a while ago. Just in case you had any big rivalries you could not get over and drive you mad late into the night decades later. Get ready to be able to put them to bed with the announcement for Need For Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered. This would be the one we are talking about that is coming and will be playable with all of the DLC yet again. With all of the usual bells and whistles that go into a decade's old game.
For some reason if you are still holding grudges from back when the first Need For Speed Hot Pursuit came out, and are not still playing it in the first place, it looks like you can spark things back up on November 13th for the Switch gamers but a bit earlier on November 6th for the rest of the platforms out there. Given the proximity to the PS5 and Xbox Series X launch, it would be easy to assume it will be "backward compatible" for those too, but there is no word on that as of yet. Even if it feels like it would have been a better idea to drop a wholly new Need For Speed title here instead of an old one again.
Need For Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered — Reveal
Reignite the pursuit in Need For Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered, coming Nov. 6 on PS4, Xbox, and PC, and Nov. 13 on Switch.
Ten years ago, Criterion Games released their critically acclaimed franchise debut Need For Speed Hot Pursuit. It introduced NFS and racing fans to the winding, open roads of Seacrest County, Criterion’s renowned feel for breakneck speed and gameplay, and the innovative Autolog system, empowering true social competition between friends.
Ever since, we’ve heard so many stories about the triumphant moments and heated rivalries Autolog fostered. Some of which run very, very deep. Like the one between Michael and Joseph.
Now, it’s your turn to feel the thrill of the chase and the rush of escape in NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered, arriving to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on November 6, and to Nintendo Switch on November 13!
Unleash a savage sense of speed both as an outlaw and a cop in this timeless racing experience updated for today’s platforms.
