New Need For Speed Trailer Reveals “Five Ways To Play”

As you know by now, Electronic Arts, owner of the Need For Speed IP, and developer Ghost Games have been working on a reboot of the Need For Speed franchise with a self-titled release due out later this fall. With cooler weather nipping at the heels, fall’s never been closer, and EA has released a new trailer to stoke up hype again.

This new trailer is called “Five Ways To Play” and demonstrates the multiple gameplay methods that the player can utilize to get through the game, demonstrating the reboot’s versatility and the way it adapts to many different gamer tastes at once. That’s the theory, anyway. We will see if it’s possible to aim that broad.

For those taking notes, here are EA’s Five Ways To Play, straight from the marketing team’s mouths:

• Speed – Pedal to the metal, high speeds, maximum adrenaline rush. Keep your nerve and never lift off the gas, the fearless always push the limits.
• Style – Expression through driving, sliding the car into a corner sideways with ultimate precision. For some, style is all that matters.
• Build – Take your car to the extreme through visual and performance modification. The constant need to improve and personalize. Craftsmen build, searching for perfection.
• Crew – Ride together with your Crew and never hit the streets alone. Put your faith in others and the skill of close proximity chaos.
• Outlaw – Messing with and escaping from the cops. Push the limits and live life on the edge as you crave the thrill of the chase.

Need For Speed launches November 3 for next-gen platforms. You can check out all five ways to play below.
