Game Summary:
Need for Speed SHIFT is an all-new simulation racing IP that combines the true driver's experience with real-world physics, pixel-perfect car models, and a wide range of authentic race tracks. Need for Speed SHIFT takes players in a different direction to create a simulation experience that replicates the true feeling of driving high-end performance cars.
Players are thrust into the loud, visceral, intense, athletic experience of racing a car on the edge of control from the driver's perspective through the combination of perception based G-forces, the hyper reality of the cockpit view, and the brutal experience of a first person crash dynamic. Need for Speed SHIFT features an accurate, accessible physics-based driving model that allows you to feel every bump in the road, the strain in the corners and the shocking speed of braking and accelerating in a race car.
The all-new driver profile is the ultimate extension of the true driver's experience. This system gives each player a unique persona based on a player's driving skill and style - aggressive or precise. Driver profile impacts how a player unlocks cars, overall career progression and online matchmaking. In Need for Speed SHIFT, how you drive is who you are behind the wheel.
The game features 72 fully-licensed cars, ranging from classic cars to modern sport cars. Cars in the game include the Bugatti Veyron, Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, Koenigsegg CCX, Pagani Zonda, Corvette Z06, Ford GT, Honda S2000, Mazda RX-7 FD, Nissan Skyline GT-R 34, Toyota AE86, and the 2009 BMW M3 GT2.
With 18 tracks in total including real world circuits and fictitious tracks like the Brands Hatch and a London circuit, combined with all the amazing cars, awesome high-def graphics, and the realistic speed and handling, Need for Speed SHIFT has to be the best release in the series to date!
