According to the press release, players will find themselves in an underground world of illicit, high-stakes racing while being pursued by the police and by others, as well. Powered with DICE's Frostbite 2 engine, Need for Speed: The Run will feature a storyline that carries players from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Empire State Building.
“This is the year that Need for Speed goes to the next level,” said Jason DeLong, Executive Producer at EA. “We think that Need for Speed The Run is going to surprise people with its intense, thrilling story and big action feel. But the game would be nothing without hot cars and crazy-fast chases. So that is what we’re delivering — explosive racing that will have players flirting with disaster at 200-miles an hour.”
Developed by Black Box, an Electronic Arts studio, Need for Speed: The Run will be available November 15, 2011 on the PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, Nintendo 3DS and PC.
