EA and Need for Speed studio Ghost Games have announced that the PC version of the next installment has been bumped to next year. The studio says that the move is a response to conversations with its PC community.

The developer says that it needs more time in order to achieve an unlocked frame rate for the game. “Part of the conversation includes hearing from our PC community that an unlocked frame rate in Need for Speed is a massive priority for you, and we fully agree,” the studio writes. “To deliver this, we’ve made the decision to move the PC release date to Spring 2016.”

The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions will hold on November 3. A closed beta is planned in the near future on those platforms in order to sure up online connectivity. For more, check out our preview from

Too bad, I'm already a PC hater for life and even though I have some games on it, it will never be my main platform. :P

Please stay on topic and don't turn this in another Console vs PC war. :angry-tappingfoot:
:back to topic:

Topic unlocked. Behave.

IMO EA should do a Beta for all platforms they want to release the game for. Maybe they are afraid of the mod community or just lazy. And do they still wonder why they have a bad rep ? :whistle:

I'll grab this game for 5€ in a bargain bin somewhere, 6 months after release :loll:

EDIT: EA postponed the PC release untill spring 2016. To beef up graphics and get rid of the fixed console framerates. So that might be the reason why there is a console only Beta for now. PC will kick in later.
I personally don't belief in parity between platforms. They should simply squeeze everything out of these machines they can. Maybe parity between consoles makes more sense. PC has much more to offer, both in graphics as hardware and controller support.
