New Need For Speed won't come out in the nearest future

EA's VP Vince Zampella provided an update on the Need for Speed franchise, addressing the lack of recent announcements. The silence stems from Criterion Games' current commitment to developing the next Battlefield installment. Zampella emphasized EA's dedication to this new Battlefield title, prioritizing player feedback and involving four studios in its creation. The focus is on rectifying the issues that plagued Battlefield 2042's launch.

This player-centric approach extends to future Need for Speed content. It's highly probable that EA will refocus on Need for Speed following the launch and initial post-release support of the new Battlefield game. This delay might prove beneficial, allowing time to address past fan dissatisfaction with recent NFS entries and potentially fostering renewed enthusiasm for a future reboot.

In short, no new Need for Speed announcements are anticipated in the foreseeable future.
