The best-selling racing franchise of all time is back — and the stakes have never been higher. Get ready to race for your life in a heart-pounding cross-country race from the Golden Gate to the Empire State as Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: ERTS) today announced that Need for Speed™ The Run is now available at retail stores in India for PC. The game will be available on November 18, 2011 in India for the Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and on November 23, 2011 on Wii™. Need for Speed The Run has already earned a perfect 5/5 from Stuff Magazine. Men’s Health heralds the game’s “killer racing action,” Univision highlights the “spectacular cars and intense racing” and GameTrailers declares the game “a blast to drive.”
Featuring an all-star cast including Mad Men star Christina Hendricks, Never Back Down’s Sean Faris, 2011 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover Model Irina Shayk and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model Chrissy Teigen, Need for Speed The Run takes players on a thrilling cross-country race known simply as “The Run.” With $25 million on the line, players take the wheel as Jack Rourke navigating thousands of miles of treacherous terrain from San Francisco to New York squaring off against 200 other racers all while evading the cops and the mob, who are hot on his trail.
“This is the biggest, fastest and most dangerous Need for Speed game yet,” said Jason DeLong, Executive Producer, Need for Speed The Run. “Need for Speed The Run delivers the series’ trademark thrilling racing and ups the ante with incredible action sequences and stunning performances from our all-star cast.”
We just hope the game does not wrap up in 2 hours as we reported yesterday.
