Our take on the Need for Speed Unbound

Need for Speed Unbound is an arcade street racing game from Criterion Games. It mixes high-speed races, police chases, and a cel-shaded art style with graffiti effects. The single-player campaign spans four weeks of racing to qualify for The Grand, and a separate multiplayer mode lets you compete online. Compared with rivals like Forza Horizon, it leans more on illegal street racing and a stylized look. Reviewers praise the driving and visual flair but note the story and progression can feel repetitive.
