Game Overview

In Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, you're dropped into the open world of Seacrest County, where you can choose to play as either a law-abiding cop or a rebellious street racer. As either side, you'll experience the thrill of high-speed chases, takedowns, and getaways in some of the world's most beautiful and powerful cars. From Criterion Games, the studio behind the Burnout series, Hot Pursuit combines stunning speeds with social competition through its innovative Autolog system. Your friends' gameplay experiences will drive yours, delivering a constant stream of new challenges and opportunities to outdo one another. As you level up and unlock new cars, weapons, and equipment, you'll find yourself immersed in an action-packed world that's as much about the thrill of the chase as it is about the camaraderie of competition.

Gameplay revolves around intense police pursuits and high-stakes racing, with Autolog generating challenges based on your friends' progress. As a cop, you'll use spike strips, roadblocks, and other tools to take down speeding suspects, while as a racer, you'll employ jammers and other evasion tactics to outsmart the law. With a wide range of cars to choose from, each with its unique handling and performance characteristics, you'll need to adapt your driving style to succeed.

What sets Hot Pursuit apart is its seamless blend of single-player excitement and multiplayer competition. Whether playing alone or with friends online, this game offers a consistently thrilling experience that will keep you coming back for more.
