There has been a lot of talk about the Need for Speed movie recently, and you’ll hear the name even more now that “Need for Speed: Rivals” racing game has been announced through a short teaser trailer designed to impress with the excellent graphics backed up by the “All Footage From Game Engine” message, which basically means that this is how the final game will look like.
Set to be released on November 19, the game will be compatible with both current- and next-gen consoles, as well as PCs.
Furthemore, if the reveal trailer is anything to go by, then this should be a very pretty game. However, we wonder how publisher Electronic Arts will manage to keep the series fresh, because while the formula is a tried and tested one, it is a bit on the old side, having been recycled in basically the same form since the days of Need for Speed III from 1998…
Still, we’re looking forward to seeing some actual gameplay footage as well as developer commentary to better understand what they’re trying to achieve with it.
