We are very proud of how good Need for Speed looks. We know many share our feelings, and we want to show you the game at a high frame rate. As they say, seeing is believing! We hope that when you play Need for Speed yourself with an unlocked frame rate and in 4K resolution, our enthusiasm will rub off on you.

The extra development time allowed us to make the best possible NFS game on PC. One of the hot topics discussed by the gaming community was the inclusion of a manual transmission in the game. We can now confirm that with the release of Need for Speed on PC, this feature will be implemented.

Also, with the game's release on PC, we are adding steering wheel support for some models from Logitech, Thrustmaster, and Fanatec. As for the manual transmission, this is a decision made solely based on feedback from the gaming community. We very much want to do everything we can to make playing Need for Speed enjoyable for you, and your feedback helps us a lot with that.

Need for Speed on PC will also include all the improvements and changes we have implemented to date, including all updates Icons and Legends. The Showcase update should arrive on PC shortly after the game's release.

The PC version of Need for Speed will be released on March 15. If you are an Origin Access member, you can get short-term early access to the game starting March 10. Not a member? Join today!

For console players, we can also confirm that a manual gearbox will be implemented in both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of the game. Keep an eye on our official channels to stay up to date with the news.

We very much look forward to welcoming fans of the series to PC in Ventura Bay. See you on the streets!.
