Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2012)

 

Need for Speed: Most Wanted was developed by British games developer Criterion Games, and released on October 30, 2012. The game picked up on the Most Wanted IP, as opposed to the Hot Pursuit extension.[27] This was the first game made subsequent to Criterion Games taking over the NFS series from Black Box.

It features open world racing, and most of the cars in the game are available from the start, hidden in different locations.[28] It also features a blacklist of 10 instead of 15, and there is no story for the game. It is powered by Autolog 2.0. Performance upgrades are available for all the cars in the game, such as chassis, tires, nitrous, and bodywork.[29] Milestones and achievements are unlocked through a variety of ways, e.g. completion of races and breaking through billboards.
