In my mind, I split the Need For Speed game series into eras, and depending on when you were introduced to the franchise makes you a different Need for Speed fan. Need for Speed can mean something different to someone depending on when they experienced the series. Ghost Games’ announcement of the next Need For Speed building upon the “foundation” of the current reboot raises the question of exactly which aspects of Need for Speed they are going to build off from? It would be easy to define the Need for Speed series as just an arcade racing game, but look at its history, and it is evident that the series has undergone several changes in identity- from tone, gameplay, to playstyle.
I am a fan of particular time in the Need For Speed series. The game has made me think about the series and re-examine the series as a whole. I’ve been playing Need for Speed, and recently finished all of the game’s story missions, but this is the first NFS game I have played to completion in over a decade. Ghost Games also announced that they are working on the next Need For Speed title to be released in 2017: “We are now building upon the foundations that have been laid with Need for Speed and delivering our next game in 2017.” The game came to the PC this March, and up to now Ghost Games has been offering free additional updates including new game modes, cars, and patches. Ghost Games, the developers behind the most recent Need For Speed (initially released on consoles November 2015), have announced that their latest SpeedList update will be their last free content update for the game.
