Simone Bailly from the original 2005 version of Most Wanted claims that EA is working on a new remake, that will be released next year.
While other video game franchises are made to suffer for their failures, being put on ice or turned into something completely different, it doesn’t seem to matter how many times Need For Speed flops, EA keeps churning out new ones.
Although last year’s Unbound was a better game than most of the other recent ones, it was still the fourth flop in a row. And yet already there are rumours of a new game next year, with a claim that it’s a remake of 2005’s Most Wanted.
Most Wanted remains the most successful entry in the franchise’s history and it’s already been remade once, in 2012. However, actress Simone Bailly, who appeared in the game’s amusingly cheesy live action cut scenes, claims that a new remake will be released in 2024.
She announced this on both Twitter and Instagram, but then promptly deleted both posts, which is usually a good sign that what was said is true but wasn’t supposed to be made public yet.
