EA recently announced its upcoming Need for Speed title, which is going to be called, "The Run." The game is set to be released for the 3DS, PC, PlayStation 3, Wii and Xbox 360 in North America on November 15th, in Europe on the 17th of November, and in the UK on 18th of November.
The most exciting news about this game is its focus: underground racing. It's said to be set as a high speed race series across the U.S. from San Fransisco to New York. Black Box are the developers of this game as well. EA stated, "EA Black Box will spend more than two years of development time on The Run to make sure this is the most action packed and finest cinematic racing experience in NFS history." Also, The Run is using DICE's new frostbite 2.0 engine, which is the same engine BF3 is going to be run on.
EA's first trailer is sure to tease and tickle the minds of all the fans who can't wait for this game to be released. After all, I'm sure every NFS series fan wants a newly developed, underground based, NFS game. The environments of this game are stunning and according to the trailer, they seem to range from thick urban traffic, dry desert plains to icy mountain passes. This game is looking like a Hollywood style, explosive filled and action packed product. We however won't know much more details until a later time.
Check out the first teaser trailer that EA has released:
According to EA, this game will be equipped with intense storytelling, and "cutting edge performances" portraying "a world with no speed limits, rules or allies". It's about time EA got back into the underground based NFS series.

Obviously, this is a take on the old movie from the late 70's early 80's, Cannonball Run. where a bunch of famous stars like; Burt Reynolds and Dom Deluise race an Ambulance and others use a Firebird Trans Am and an assortment of other hot cars of the time to race from one side of the U's. to the other, all while being pursued by the police. See the trailer of the movie here :
