Nej, det bidde inget Underground 3, trots att mycket (inklusive EA:s egna retsticke-poster på bland annat Facebook) tydde på det. Istället är en påkostad, ambitiös re-boot av hela spelserien som står på tapeten när svenska studion Ghost Games nu utannonserar årets Need for Speed-titel. Nya spelet heter bara Need for Speed på samma sätt som Crystal Dynamics re-boot av Tomb Raider endast hette Tomb Raider, utan krystad undertitel. I pressreleasen uttalar sig bland annat spelets producent Marcus Nilsson, Ghost Games:
"Need for Speed is one of the most iconic names in gaming, and we're returning it to greatness in this reboot."
Pressreleasen lyder sen:
Fuelled by EA:s own car culture community, Speedhunters, Need for Speed will deliver an experience that's grounded in authentic car culture by diving into the rich world of past, present and emergent trends of the urban car scene. This collaboration with Speedhunters in the research and development of the game means the level of detail and real-world authenticity will envelop gamers in an exciting world to discover and enjoy in a way that only Need for Speed can deliver.
