The Need for Speed franchise puts the pedal to the metal and returns to its arcade roots with Need for Speed: Carbon. Picking up from where Need for Speed Most Wanted left off, you find yourself searching for redemption. To succeed, you're going to need more than good driving skills, you're going to need one of the 30 available fast cars and a crew to support you. Recruit drivers to act as wingmen during your races. Blockers will run interference while drafters will provide a slipstream for you to slingshot around your competition, and scouts will find alternate routes and shortcuts. And, when you're done racing, drive throughout the expansive, open world.
Customize your car with the new Autosculpt feature to modify the bumper, hood, roof scoop, and spoiler to improve the handling of your ride. Race at night in lap, circuit and point-to-point events through the city streets of Palmont or drift through closed courses and winding canyon roads. New, Japanese "Touge"-style canyon races have you playing follow-the-leader along curving, cliff-side roads. Win races to take over control of territory – and to defend those zones from the crews who want it back. Play online against others in "Be the cop" where the fastest driver must evade the other drivers until he is caught – whereupon the new fastest driver must now stay ahead. Post screenshots on to the Need for Speed website along with your stats and modifications. Do you feel the need? The need for speed?
