“Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit was ahead of its time when it
released in 2010 as we built an automatic comparison and friend
recommendation system in the game before that type of thing became
a norm in today’s world. Now, we’re delighted to be bringing that
spirit of timeless racing competition back to new platforms and
players where they can connect, compare and compete no matter what
platform they’re on, even on the go this time with the Nintendo
Switch,” said Matt Webster, VP of Criterion Games. “Fueled by
Autolog and some of the world’s most desirable and classic
supercars, this will create the most heart-pumping socially
competitive racing experience.”
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered features the graphical
enhancements of the world of Seacrest County, where the winding
roads and exotic supercars offer an adrenaline-filled sense of
speed. A deep single-player career delivers the action of both
sides of the law, where supercharged cop interceptors with tactical
weaponry can bust their suspects, and elite racers can level the
playing field with counterattacks and defensive maneuvers. Through
a seamlessly linked multiplayer experience across all race modes,
players can play their career solo or take on friends to earn
Bounty and unlock new cars, weapons, and equipment. The game will
also include all the additional post-launch content, like
fan-favorite modes Armed and Dangerous and Lamborghini Untamed,
seamlessly woven into the experience like never before. Brand new
achievements, car colors, reduced hard stops, an updated photo mode
and multiple quality of life updates make this the best time to
reignite the pursuit on either side of the law. After launch, Need
for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered will also see the addition of car
wraps, which will give players even more customization options.
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered’s groundbreaking Autolog
technology returns to connect players with friends in head-to-head
asynchronous competition, instinctively delivering and recommending
challenges based on their results. The Autolog feature also enables
players to compare and share all their experiences, pictures and
challenges with cross-platform multiplayer, giving players the
opportunity to compete with each other across any platform.
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered is rated E10+ by the
ESRB. For more information about the game, please visit the
