Eurogamer is reporting that there are not one but four new Need for Speed titles under development by Black Box. Need for Speed: Shift will be coming to PC, Xbox 360, PS3 and PSP, while Need for Speed: Nitro will be on Wii and DS. Both will be arriving this fall. Finally, there's Need for Speed: World Online, which is coming to the Asian online PC market this summer before hitting the west at a later date. The last looks to be in line with the free-to-play games that are popular with Asian PC gamers.
So what about the last one? According EA marketing vice president Keith Munro, it's a secret.
Since the other three NFS games cover simulation, casual and online angles, Eurogamer is speculating that the fourth title will be more in the vein of classic NFS titles and Burnout, and we're inclined to agree. But still, that's a lot of Need for Speed.
"This isn't about quantity, this is about crafting different games for different audiences and their unique tastes in the driving category," said Munro. "We took a consumer-first approach and spoke with the fans about what they would like from their Need for Speed. Player feedback was consistent - create custom simulation and arcade experiences but maintain the franchises' core values of street culture, attitude and beautiful licensed cars."
