VOL 3 UPDATE

Work together to crush intense stunt-based challenges against the clock as Need for Speed™ Unbound Vol 3 brings new ways to own the streets

Need for Speed™ Unbound: Under the Hood

F1 2021 Header

NFS Fam, the time has arrived. The second Need for Speed™ Unbound post-launch update is here ready for you to tear up the streets all over again. Let’s get into it.

Vol 3 brings new ways for you to own the streets, from Linkups, drift playlists, dodging the cops in online races to the new Speed Pass with 75 free ranks offering some of the dopest items for you to express yourself. You might want to check out all fixes and QoL improvements coming alongside Vol 3 on June 20th.

Rank up in Lakeshore with the new Speed Pass, featuring 75 free ranks. Each time you rank up you’ll grab the goods you need to light up the streets in style, including the Legendary Custom Dodge SRT Viper 2014. Earn XP whenever you race, complete Daily or Weekly Challenges, and complete objectives in Linkups.

Heard you were looking for new ways to play in multiplayer in Lakeshore? Let us introduce you to the brand-new Linkups, a new stunt-based free-roam feature open to any daring driver willing to accept. Get yourself to one of 7 locations from the Seba Ski Resort to the Quarry. You need to work together with the Lakeshore community to crush collective goals that escalate difficulty, but keep an eye on the clock as it will be racing against you over 4 rounds.

On top of earning some sweet XP and Bank, if you crush 12 Linkups challenges you will get a sweet reward to show off in Lakeshore… and not any reward: the iconic DMC DeLorean (1981) . So be ready to smash the objectives, get your name on the scoreboard as Top Player, and show the Lakeshore community who’s in charge!

Bag yourself some sweet XP for the Speed Pass and Bank to earn yourself dope new cosmetics and customizations - when the Linkup ends, you’ll still have to shake off the cops to hold on to all your hard-earned cash.

There’s no point owning the streets if you aren’t doing it in style. Show everyone you’re the boss with epic new rims, clothes and legendary poses. As you progress through the Speed Pass you will unlock new ways to elevate your look and put your own stamp on Lakeshore.

It’s time to get sideways, tune your car to show that you can tame a drifting monster and dominate the competition in the new Drift playlists found in Lakeshore. Don't worry about your position, just keep your eye on the multiplier as you dance around the corners to earn big points and bragging rights on the streets.

Cops on your tail and you need a little assistance to take some heat off you? Want to show you rule the streets and challenge those that get too big for their boots or do you want to show some love to your homies in Linkups? The Chat Wheel gives you another way to express yourself and talk to the Lakeshore community.

EA Play Reward

Nobody can hold a torch to your style, so push the limits of your self-expression even further and own the streets. Being an EA Play member you’ll find a hot new Nissan Skyline GTR V-Spec (1993) waiting for you in the Garage as your reward.

 

Robojets Swag Pack*

For the ultimate self-expression that is guaranteed to turn heads, channel your inner mecha with the new Robojets Swag Pack. This premium pack contains an incredible range of uniquely designed items including a clothing pack with helmet, a driving effect, and an exclusive Horn, plus a one-off Legendary Custom, the Mazda RX-7 Spirit R (2002).

Ford Mustang GT Legendary Custom Pack**

This pack gets you the Legendary Custom Ford Mustang GT (2015) (custom bodykit and livery) AND a 10 level Speed Pass boost, which will reward you with 10 exciting new cosmetic or customization items! Use it wisely, as the boost kicks in as soon as the pack is purchased!

Vol.3 Customs Pack*

Pack your Garage with 3 new whips; Volkswagen Golf GTI Clubsport (2016), Volvo 242 DL (1975) & the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X (2008).

There’s more coming to Need for Speed Unbound in the upcoming months, keep your eyes peeled and make sure you’re ready to rule the streets of Lakeshore.
