This is your chance to add to the unique gameplay and progression you’ll experience as both a cop and racer with one car that will embody the ultimate rivalry.

In Need for Speed Rivals, it’s all about the heat of competition in the legendary rivalry between cops and racers. Gamers play as either a cop or racer, where each side of the law has its own set of high stakes challenges, rewards and consequences. As a racer, the goal is to become infamous for taking risks behind the wheel and capturing your most intense escapes on video for the world to see. The more cops players evade, the more Speed Points they collect, enabling them to unlock new cars, personalisation options and evasion tech. Keep raising the stakes race after race to become an ever-more valuable target to the cops – but risk losing it all if busted. As a cop, players work together as part of a team in pursuit of racers, earning prominence and rising in the ranks of the Police Force with every bust, unlocking unique cop cars and more powerful pursuit tech.

Need for Speed Rivals will be available in Australia on November 21 and in New Zealand, November 22, 2013, on the Xbox 360^® videogame and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation^®3 computer entertainment system, and PC via Origin^TM. Need for Speed Rivals will also be available for the Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, and PlayStation 4 later this year.
