No Immediate Plans For A New Burnout, Despite Studio Hopes
After several years of inactivity, the Need For Speed series is set to return very soon with a new game called Unbound. However, there’s one high-profile racing franchise that apparently won’t be roaring back to life anytime soon: Burnout.
In a recent interview with Eurogamer, Unbound developer Criterion Games confirmed that it’s not currently working on a Burnout reboot, and that it’s unlikely to in the near future. Creative director Kieran Crimmins told Eurogamer that Burnout and Need For Speed are the two franchises that the studio has the “most passion” for. He also said that working on such a project would be “really fun.”
