With over 20 years of history in its rear view mirror, Need for Speed returns with a reboot that delivers on what Need for Speed stands for - rich customization, authentic urban car culture, a nocturnal open world, and an immersive narrative that drives your NFS game. In the fictional coastal city of Ventura Bay, a young street racer and a small crew of friends chase recognition from a handful of legendary underground driving figures. Working through the city's nighttime racing scene, the player builds a reputation across different styles of driving while navigating the ambitions and rivalries within the group. The goal is to rise from an unknown to a respected name among the icons who define the local car culture.
