Need for Speed (NFS) is a racing game franchise published by Electronic Arts and currently developed by Criterion Games, the developers of Burnout.[1] The series generally centers around illegal street racing and tasks players to complete various types of races while evading the local law enforcement in police pursuits. The series is one of EA's oldest franchises not published under their EA Sports brand. The series released its first title, The Need for Speed, in 1994. The most recent game, Need for Speed Unbound, was released on December 2, 2022. Additionally, a free-to-play mobile installment released in 2015, Need for Speed: No Limits, is actively developed by Firemonkeys Studios, the developers of Real Racing 3.
💫 Bethesda's highly awaited game, Starfield, is set to launch in the first half of 2023. Anticipation is through the roof for good reason: picture a gaming realm where you can traverse an incredible 1,000 planets (procedurally generated!)
Nate Purkeypile, a former Bethesda Game Studios artist who dedicated 14 years to classics like Fallout 3 and Starfield, shared insights into the enormity of Starfield's creation.
✨ Nate emphasized that Starfield's sheer scale makes it unprecedented. Unlike past hits such as Fallout 3 and Skyrim, which relied on a single team, Starfield boasts around 500 minds collaborating. Even compared to Fallout 76, a significant project with about 200 team members at its peak, Starfield's development is on another level.
Nate also revealed the challenges of crafting a new fictional universe from scratch – from the design of metal panels to color palettes. Creating 1,000 planets through procedural generation brought its own complexities. Nate's glimpse into Bethesda's dedication and innovation offers insight into the making of this ambitious gaming universe. 🚀🎮
