Need for Speed XI (NFS XI [2]) (unofficial title) is expected to be the latest installment of Electronic Arts' popular racing game series Need for Speed. It is expected to be officially announced sometime this spring.[3] A recently published teaser trailer on the official Need for Speed website suggest that more information will officially be revealed on May 31.[4]

Information

Currently, little is known about Need for Speed XI, and nothing is for sure. According to early rumours, it will include some of the things not included in Need for Speed: Carbon, such as drag racing. It is also said that it will feature advanced graphics, with special attention given to the next-generation graphical capabilities of the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360.[5] The game engine will be built from scratch as opposed to refining an older engine, and suitable for today's fast systems. NFS XI will also transition from the arcade-like racing of previous titles in the NFS series to more realistic racing, making a hybrid of the two. The rumours also suggest that Autosculpt from NFS: Carbon will be back and improved.[3][6]

Title

Soft Club, the Russian publisher, said that the game will be titled Need for Speed: Pro Street and will be released in November 2007.[7][6] However, this information was later removed, and EA has not officially confirmed a title.

Teaser trailer

On May 21, 2007, EA released a trailer for Need for Speed XI.[4] The trailer shows a realistic damage model and the return of the Mazda RX-7. The trailer also mentions a date of May 31, 2007. [1]
