With the new Most Wanted, Need for Speed franchise is taking a break from racing and drifting and all that sort of stuff, and wants to give the players a chance to have some fun. The gameplay of NFS MW is totally different than all the other games, providing you with all the cars right off the bat, and allowing you to explore every corner of a large fictional town called Fairhaven City.

There is still lots of chasing and racing, but you are free to jump into any car you want and just roam everywhere you want. It’s kind of like Driver San Fransisco in that aspect.

Need for Speed Most Wanted Single Player Details:

With all cars being available at the start, if you can find it, you can drive it. Examine firsthand how the Easy Drive system allows for truly seamless driving experience with no pausing necessary. Drive or go directly to a race’s starting line, and swap cars and performance mods to suit any condition or driving style, all without ever having to leave gameplay or leaving the open-world behind. Beat the competition using all new features of Autolog 2, pull off monstrous drifts to earn Speed Points which contribute to unlocking performance modifications and secure your rank on The Most Wanted List amongst your friends and rivals.
