During Electronic Art’s quarterly earnings call last year, CEO Andrew Wilson revealed that the company would release six new next-gen titles during the 2022 fiscal year, including a brand-new Need for Speed game<\/a> for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.<\/p>\n

Wilson said that the game would feature “astounding visual leaps” and be developed by Criterion Games; however, there have not been any further details communicated ever since.<\/p>\n

This is particularly concerning given that Need for Speed games are traditionally released during the fourth quarter. More recently, however, industry insider and notable leaker Tom Henderson provided some less-than-reassuring updates regarding the game.<\/p>\n
