ELECTRONIC ARTS PS4 NEED FOR SPEED PAYBACK

Need for Speed™, one of the world's best-selling video game franchises, opens a new chapter with the new action-racing game blockbuster Need for Speed Payback.

"Payback" is set in the underworld of Fortune Valley. After your crew has been torn apart, you find each other again to take revenge on "The House" – a ruthless cartel that controls the city's casinos, criminals, and police officers. In this corrupt player's paradise, the stakes are high and The House always wins. As Tyler (aka "Racer"), Mac (aka "Showman"), and Jess (aka "Wheelman"), you will face a large number of challenges and events. Each driver must complete races, missions, and challenges to earn the respect of the Valley's underground scene – only then can you participate in the ultimate race and eventually bring down The House.

Your car is central to everything you do. Use the most extensive performance and optical tuning ever to create unique cars and push them to their performance limits to escape the police in breathtaking chases. Compete against other racers and drive on and off the road through canyons, deserts, mountains, and the city. Raise the stakes by betting extra in-game currency in events, challenges, and missions to multiply your winnings... or lose everything. To prove all your skills, you can connect with your friends via Autolog recommendations – and for the first time, with potential rivals – and compete against them. Your scoreboard will fill up with other players of similar skill levels, so you can see how well you're doing in a global comparison.

Need for Speed™ Payback offers you a gripping action-racing game experience, from risky heist missions to spectacular vehicle combat and breathtaking highlights.
