![]() ![]() The audio accompaniment is similarly structured, though there’s more EDM in the hip-hop soup this time around. There’s more than a little of Enter the Spider-Verse to the game’s visual styling. It’s an experience to see realistic reflecting blinking off the side of a car while cartoon smoke drifts up from your tyres but at least it all takes place at 60fps. We can’t say we’ve seen that anywhere else (so far). It combines cel-shaded characters and a range of special effects that wouldn’t disgrace an SSX game with photorealism when it comes to cars and settings. Need for Speed Unbound certainly features a unique look. It’s a slightly more serious Burnout Paradise with extra cops (and no destruction mode), really. Depending on how badly you offend, outrunning the bacon might be a sinecure or a massive chore. Like Need for Speed Heat, you’ll have to make it back to your safehouse before being busted or you’ll lose all your cash for that day/night.

Even the story, where players start off at the bottom and eventually make it to the top despite all the obstacles on the way, is familiar. The cops are intensely interested in both. This generic Chicago knockoff is populated with a ridiculous number of souped-up rides and street racers. There’s a semi-fictional open world called Lakeshore to play with. If you’ve played Need for Speedin the last decade, you should know your way around Need for Speed Unbound. ![]()
