Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2012) is a racing game developed by Criterion Games and published by Electronic Arts. As the nineteenth entry in the Need for Speed series, it serves as a spiritual successor to the 2005 title of the same name. Released globally in 2012 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PlayStation Vita, iOS, and Android, it also saw a Wii U version titled Need for Speed: Most Wanted U in 2013. Unlike the 2005 version, the 2012 release focuses on open-world racing and police chases rather than a narrative-driven storyline.
Set in the fictional city of Fairhaven, Need for Speed: Most Wanted Gameplay emphasizes an open-world environment where players can explore, switch cars, and participate in various racing events. These include Sprint races, Circuit races, Speed runs, and Ambush races, where players start surrounded by police and must evade capture. The game features a “Most Wanted List” of ten top racers, akin to the Blacklist from the original game. Defeating these rivals adds their cars to the player’s collection. Fairhaven features diverse cityscapes including a beach and industrial areas and is noted for its destructible environments and checkpoint-based races, drawing comparisons to the Burnout series.
Need for Speed: Most Wanted Torrent PC received positive reviews for its open-world map and social features, though its single-player mode received some criticism. The driving model was praised as deep and engaging, and the game offers a wide selection of real-world vehicles. Customization focuses on performance upgrades rather than extensive visual modifications. The Autolog system tracks player achievements and integrates recommendations directly into the game, enhancing the competitive experience. The new social feature, Cloudcompete, allows cross-platform progress tracking.
The Wii U version of Need for Speed: Most Wanted SteamUnlocked includes unique features such as Off-TV Play and a co-op mode called Co-Driver, where one player drives and another assists with navigation using the GamePad.
