Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 8.14/day in the week to Sep 14 → 8.4/day in the week after.

i don't know how to rate it, because it would be really decent game without enforcing "always online" ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ - I play mainly single player races.
Playable. Still some jibber jabber and quite a lot of unnecessary cutscenes and slightly convoluted UI and menus lol I was surprised to see other players in my game... Very few in game graphics settings, which is fine, but somehow graphics seems like loosing their sharpness near or far, and the game looks somewhat too darkish at night.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 24: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Lo único bueno de este juego horrible son sus gráficos y el modo foto
- Terrible UI - Countless loading screens - Unnecessary and repetitive cut scenes - Servers shut down every 10 mins - It’s a Need For Speed game so u know key binds on Keyboard and mouse r cancer and u can’t rebind them - It’s a Need For Speed game so u know NPCs r scripted to intentionally crash into u + Good graphics for a 2016 game
Not the best Need For Speed game that i've played before, but it's still pretty good, feels quite empty though.
Unplayable on Steam Deck. It's a good game, but the "playable" Deck compatibility rating is criminal. ProtonDB rating is out of date. The third party DRM ♥♥♥♥ EA pulls with this prevents it from ever getting past the EA app installer. There have been three completely different places in third party apps I've had to sign in to EA, and it still never worked. Even in desktop mode I have been struggling to get it past the third party app install process, let alone into the game. I'm sure it runs great on Windows, but that's not why I bought it.
It's a good game, but definitely not one of the best Need for Speed titles. The gameplay is really fun. The missions can become a bit repetitive after a while, but it's still engaging enough to keep you playing and wanting to progress. The car selection isn't very large. I really wish Bugatti had been included. One of the best parts of the game is the nighttime atmosphere—it looks absolutely amazing. There is also a bug that may or may not affect you. Some controllers don't work properly with the game. If you run into this issue, you can fix it by following this guide: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3040247021 Overall, I don't regret buying this game at all, especially with the 90% discount. It was definitely worth the price. That said, I don't think it's the kind of game I'll replay after finishing it.
画質もきれい。収録車種も個人的にはとても好き。でも、夜の景色しかないのが残念だ。
[h1] Beautiful but Okay-ish [/h1] After completing all the latest NFS (Unbound, Heat and Payback) this game doesn't seem to pack a punch at all. Reasons : 1. The world is beautiful with amazing car sounds and detailing along with amazing music. However, the game becomes boring real fast as you happen to drive same sections of world in numerous events which is really off-putting. 2. Buggy collisions and janky physics makes some races really annoying. 3. This game is [b] "ALWAYS ONLINE" [/b] which means "Automatic game exit multiple times per day tu server maintenance". ⚠️⚠️⚠️ All-in-all, the game is very okay-ish experience at best hencd, only recommended on massive sale and true racing fanatics. Servers are reported to die within 2026 or 2027 at the latest, so if you want to play it buy it ASAP !!! Game can be 100% completed in 25 hours so it is a short refresher in a different world. 6/10 from me and a very difficult recommendation. Easily skippable game as NFS HEAT and Most Wanted 2012 are miles better.
Requires internet to play!!! wtf
