Need for Speed Rivals moved up to be LAUNCH title now

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/...-november-15th

The wait for a next-gen games is getting unbearable! And our team at Ghost Games has been pushing themselves to be a part of PlayStation’s big launch day. We’re excited to announce today that Need for Speed Rivals will be a launch title for PS4 in North America on November 15th.

We’re stoked to be the first racing game on PS4, and believe we’re setting a new bar for driving gameplay and visuals. PS4, coupled with the Frostbite 3 engine, will give players unparalleled next-gen gaming — epic locations and vistas, stunning time of day and weather changes, and super high fidelity cars. But we’re not just about looks — what’s under the hood counts, too! With Rivals, we’re introducing AllDrive, a new feature which allows players to choose seamlessly between single player, co-op, or multiplayer, and a completely new way for you to play Need for Speed.

So they bumped up the release date a week, or so?

Ya it's officially a launch title

Elandyll · 11-04-2013, 05:38 PM

Nice... it was supposed to be delayed by a week, so it's back to launch day

Hayabusa85 · 11-04-2013, 06:03 PM

Good I can get a week in with it before Forza 5 takes my racing attention away

EA posting on the PS Blog, pushing up a game to not wait for the Xbone, better resolution and stuff in BF4 (And one would assume this since it uses Frostbite)............ guess the Microsoft honeymoon is over.

Lots of date changes according to my Amazon orders.

Game & Accessories

Problem is it's creating bugs with PS4 orders on Amazon. Ala Game orders do not show up as "You have already purchased this item" under game details.

BF4 & Call of duty

Others bumped up NFS on the 12th & another title I can't think of.

AC4 is shipping now..

Hope those shooters get straightened out.

As for accessories, Nyko may not make it for PS4 launch.

PS4 system looks to be shipped on 12th.

Either or, the PS4 is just around the corner & I already made a hole.

Oh Boy, I get to stare at the game packages of NFS & BF4, for a whopping 3 days before the console is available...

Are you picking this up on launch day? Do you consider this a day 1 purchase or wait? Do you think this game sells well for PS4? How are the previews coming in for this game?

I'm waiting a bit... these games seem to drop in price quickly and it doesn't seem to vary much from the last.

Why did this need its own thread when it could have gone into the NFS thread?

RaijinUT · 11-09-2013, 08:20 PM

Very little is being said about this game.

From the released videos, it is safe to say that the Rival's map is a mixture of Hot Pursuit's and Most Wanted's maps with added features for next-gen.

Derb · 11-09-2013, 08:30 PM

Every Single EA Game on Launch must be avoided.

Yeah no need for 10 threads on same game title per day.

Anyway, I'm getting this game with 0 expectations it will be any good.

i007spectre · 11-09-2013, 09:44 PM

Can't have a console launch without a racing game, so thats why I am getting Rivals.

Why didn't you just price. match at a target or best buy.?

Jamfan · 11-16-2013, 06:10 PM

Gotta say this game is fun! glad i pulled trigger on it, the weather & terrain is a blast!

CoMaToast · 11-16-2013, 06:28 PM

For those who have this as well as hot persuit. Is/was it worth the upgrade? Looks like the same concept, but a little polished.

I have about 20 hours into hot persuit and Dont wanna drop $60 on a game that is just marginally better..
