This Need For Speed was originally due to release last year, but wasdelayed while Criterion helped EA Dicefinish work onBattlefield 2042during the Covid-19 pandemic. The racing game is now apparently due for release before the end of 2022.

Although Criterion are known for some of the best games in the series, more recent Need For Speed games have had a bumpier reception. The previously released game, 2019’s Need For Speed: Heat, was considered an improvement on the recent past but still not a full return to form.
