5 Crews of up to 3 players are pitted against each other, the Lakeshore Police Department and the relentlessly expanding Lockdown Zone, in an all-new PvPvE multiplayer mode!
Work together with your crew to complete Contracts and break into Lockups to loot Hot Rides which you can keep IF you can extract them by chasing down and owning the Extraction truck. All this madness has been kindly laid on by your not-so-friendly neighborhood Racer X. He is looking out for talent, acting as puppet master, putting on events with Pursuit tech active, controlling when the Lockups open and Extraction trucks roll in. Oh, and not to mention disclosing where you can find for the first time in NFS, a motorbike, that will give you and your crew the edge in this new way to play NFS. You need to get in, take what's yours, and get out before the whole of Lakeshore is on Lockdown!
Break into Lockups to escape with Hot Rides, which include Racer X’s Custom BMW M3 GTR ‘05, and 15 rides inspired by Most Wanted's Blacklist and some of the hardest to acquire rides from NFS Unbound. Escape the Lockdown Zone with these vehicles by extracting to keep them and use across Free Roam, PVP and Lockdown. Vehicles in the Lockups will change up each week!
Claim the Extraction Truck with your crew before your rivals to safely escape the Lockdown Zone with your loot and Hot Rides! Fail to claim it before it leaves, and you risk being wrecked by its deadly EMP blast.
For the first time in NFS, drive the BMW S 1000 RR 2019 in Lockdown mode and some special PVP/Free Roam motorbike playlists! Bikes will get you into the Lockups without the need to pay and are impervious to the Zone, so make good use of them.
Two new cars are set to bring a modern classic JDM flavor to Lakeshore. The Honda Integra TYPE R and the SUBARU Impreza WRX STI have pedigree both on track and on the streets. The Integra, a favorite for anyone seeking a pure driving experience with its high-revving VTEC power, will be nimble enough to get out of any situation during Lockdown, whilst the SUBARU with its rally pedigree and four wheel drive is more than equipped to take on whatever is thrown in its path from Lockdown rivals to Lakeshore’s finest!
The Lakeshore PD is locking down the city with a new EMP wall tech that damages cars when they are inside it. Sections of the map will be locked down over the round, but these areas will have the highest loot rewards. Stepping inside will not only make you take damage over time but take you straight to Heat level 5, so watch out!
There are 4 sets of Contracts for players to work through in Lockdown sessions, including the Blacklist contracts! For these, grab the Blacklist inspired vehicles from the Lockups and extract to keep them and tick them off the list. Collect every Blacklist contract and unlock the original Most Wanted BMW M3 GTR!
