'Need for Speed' update: EA bringing out new car collection

(Official "Need for Speed" Twitter account)New car selection for the 2015 "Need for Speed"

"Need for Speed" stays true to its name by delivering a new set of cars playable for its players. But Electronic Arts promises that the latest addition will not be the last.

The official "Need for Speed" Twitter account announced earlier this week 17 new cars which will be available for its speedster players when the game launches later this year. The image came with a teaser, "...and still many more to come."

As expected, players responded positively to the announcement. Most commented on how "NFS" was able to sneak in the Honda S2000 to the list, given the Japanese automobile company's usual aversion to be included in "reckless street racing" video games. Another popular comment is about the excitement over the inclusion of the classic Toyota Supra.

And with the teaser caption, some fans also started making some requests for future announcements. Some cars thrown into the wishlist were the previously teased BMW M3 E36, Dodge Viper, Honda Civic, and the 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R. The person behind the game's Twitter account was kept busy answering all fan queries and requests.

The 2015 "NFS" game is the 21st release for the open world racing game franchise. It reboots the whole series and will be the first title in the "NFS" franchise that is exclusive to the latest generation consoles.

The latest iteration of the popular racing title will, like any game in the franchise, have players building not just their dream cars but also their reputation to earn their rights as an ultimate icon in the racing world.

Aside from refueling the game to play smoothly and more beautifully on the new consoles, publisher, Electronic Arts and developer, Ghost Games, have incorporated more complex car and character customizations and a new narrative, too. Build, Crew, Style, Speed, and Outlaw are new gameplays introduced in the 2015 version.

"Need for Speed" speeds its way to the Sony PlayStation4, Microsoft Xbox One, and the PC this Nov. 3, 2015.
