Need for Speed: Most Wanted Remake (Leak)

One of the most iconic installments of the racing game series from Electronics Arts, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, is expected to receive a remake.

The source of these rumors is actress Simone Bailly, who lent her voice to the main character's partner in the 2005 game. She probably prematurely posted a message on Twitter, according to which the remake of Most Wanted is in production and will debut in 2024..

Interestingly, the actress in a now-deleted post tagged studio Need for Speed: Most Wanted - but the one from 2012, which was a kind of reboot of the original.

However, it should be ed that Criterion also developed the latest installment of the NFS series, Unbound - which gives hope that Bailly's entry, however, was about the fan-awaited remake of the 2005 game, and not its "spiritual heir."

Let me remind you that the iconic Most Wanted was developed by EA Canada and the now-defunct EA Black Box. The game was released in November 2005 on PS2, Xbox, GameCube, Nintendo DS, PC, Game Boy Advance and Xbox 360, while a spin-off came to PSP, titled Need for Speed: Most Wanted 5-1-0.

Of course, the above information is just rumors, which must be approached with caution.. However, if they were confirmed, then Criterion Games would face quite a challenge - to match the legendary game from almost 18 years ago - especially considering that the studio not so long ago was abandoned by a group of veteran developers.
