And if you’re wondering if pedestrians can be run over, the answer is no. We now have a good number of pedestrians roaming around the locations which in turn makes it feel more like a real city. Criterion Games are once again at the helm and even though it’s not a much-wanted new Burnout release, NFSU Lakeshore feels like an upgraded Paradise City. You have open fields, rural winding roads and a beautifully designed city landscape that actually feels alive. Need for Speed Unbound (NFSU) is a large open world racing game similar to the 2019 NFS Heat However, unlike Heat this location called Lakeshore feels more flushed out with a good variety of different driving terrain. Is this a full NFS game or some sort of arcade-ish digital-only release? And the main concerning question being Why virtually “Stealth launch” a major NFS release? Well gamers, I hope my review answers some if not all of your questions but I’ll start by saying this is, in fact, a full NFS gaming experience and it’s definitely steering the franchise in the right direction while hitting a few speed bumps along the way.

This short window raised a lot of eyebrows and even more questions. NFS unbound was announced in OCT 2022 and released on Dec 2nd, 2022. While reviewing Need for Speed Unbound, the first question I asked was simply What is Need for Speed Unbound? Unlike previous NFS releases, there was little fan fair or marketing build-up toward the release.
