The latest EA game to be remastered was Burnout Paradise and it was received quite warmly by longtime Burnout fans as well as newcomers. Now, there are reports that EA is also working on a new remaster from the Need for Speed series. Rumors state that the game in the works is Hot Pursuit.
The report came from VentureBeat, which referred to the same source that has previously leaked release dates for other Need for Speed titles. The source suggests that EA's Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remaster will be coming to PS4, Xbox One, PC and also on the Switch sometime later this year.
If you're thinking about what to expect from Hot Pursuit Remaster, you might want to give Burnout Paradise Remastered a shot. The original Burnout Paradise was released in 2008 and, two years later, Hot Pursuit joined the Need for Speed series.
We expect the remaster to improve upon the graphical fidelity of the game and implement high resolution textures and shaders. The remastered version of Hot Pursuit may also introduce some post-processing filters to make the game look visually appealing.
Additionally, if you're thinking about what other EA games could be coming to the Switch, for now, we know that Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit is one of them, Plants vs. Zombies: Battle of Neighborville is another, Apex Legends is making the jump this fall, and also, a new EA Originals game from the guys at Velan Studios is expected.
The game developed by Velan Studios is said to be comprised of online competitive aspects and innovative gameplay mechanics. If that turns out to be true, the game could end up being a frontrunner for the EA Originals label.
Well, if you're already excited about Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remaster, you'll want to acknowledge that none of this information has come straight from EA. Thereby, it's always better to take such unofficial information, rumors, and leaks with a grain of salt.
With that being said, we'll make sure to keep you posted as soon as we learn more about Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remaster.
