EA has shown off some more information and gameplay footage for their reboot of Need For Speed at their E3 press conference.
The demo showed off a large scale city called “Ventura Bay”, new and extended car customization featuring real name-brand aftermarket parts, and a reputation system whereby players will compete to take down five racing icons in order to usurp them, reminiscent of Need For Speed: Most Wanted’s Blacklist feature. Aside from that, there seemed to be a lot more focus on story and a welcome return of the live-action on pre-rendered background cutscenes which first appeared in Need For Speed Underground.
This third reboot of Need For Speed is set to arrive November 3 on PS4, XB1 and PC, so more details will likely emerge over the coming months in its nitro-infused run-up to launch.
