The new Need for Speed title due to be released before March 2022 has now been delayed by a year. In an interview with Polygon, EA revealed this is because developer Criterion will now be supporting EA DICE as they create Battlefield 6, due to be released on PlayStation 5 later this year.
The decision was made due to the recent acquisition of Codemasters. As this studio will already be producing a racing title for EA that will also be released later this year, the publisher decided to move the Need for Speed game away from a release window where it could potentially compete with Codemasters? title. While Criterion will be working on Battlefield 6 for now, they will eventually return to their Need for Speed project, which will now be released on PS4 and PS5 before March 2023. As EA?s chief studios officer Laura Miele stated, ?anything that?s happening within the Need for Speed brand, they are responsible for, or things come through them to ensure that they?re on board with it.?
