The publisher released a few screenshots (below) of the upcoming title, but did not announce a name (it may very well just be called Need for Speed) or any further details. It is being labelled a reboot and will return to the series' roots, perhaps something more akin to the beloved Need for Speed Underground titles. The game will release in Fall 2015 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

"While we've been busy making the game we've also been reading, watching, and listening to you, our NFS Community," EA Content and Community Manager Ben Walke said. "The feedback you've provided across every medium possible has urged us forward, and directed us towards our goals. To know that there's such a passionate set of gamers out there is one of the best feelings you can have as a developer, so thank you for that."

"Every day someone proudly proclaims that we simply must have customization in the next Need for Speed game, so that's exactly what you'll have. When Need for Speed launches later this year you'll be able to fully customize a car, in the process turning it into a truly unique resident of your garage."

Walke also mentions that the game will "grounded in authentic car culture by diving into the world of past, present, and emergent trends of the urban car scene", which is what sounds more like the Underground titles. A "nocturnal open world" is also a priority, but we'll have to wait for more at E3 next month.
