Need for Speed

Ghost Games has announced that the PC version of its upcoming Need for Speed has been delayed to Spring 2016. The Xbox One and PS4 versions will still launch on November 5th worldwide (November 3rd in North America).

The developer explained that it would be taking more time to “increase the visuals that we can deliver on PC. We will also include content updates that will have been released on console up to that time, making them available to all PC players from day one,” it explained in a statement.

One of the benefits of the delay will be an unlocked frame rate on the PC version. “At Ghost, we’re united by one common passion… to deliver the best Need for Speed experience possible. And at every step of the development process we’re guided by our community.

“Part of the conversation includes hearing from our PC community that an unlocked frame rate in Need for Speed is a massive priority for you, and we fully agree. To deliver this, we’ve made the decision to move the PC release date to Spring 2016.”

Sign-ups for a closed beta on the Xbox One and PS4 are currently live. What are your thoughts on the delay of Need for Speed’s PC version? Let us know below.
