Is NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered good?

Need for Speed (NFS) Hot Pursuit Remastered brings you back to one of the most successful modernNeed for Speedformulas to date. However, the remastered elements in the game somehow fall short. The gameplay is as good as ever because it still gives off thesame grand NFS experiencethat you have experienced in its original game. You are free to choose your character in every event—araceror part of theSeacrest County police department. Each side works hard to gain weapons that each of them could use to be on the upper hand. Whether you’re a racer or a cop, you will haveEMP blaststhat could injure opponents and destroy communications, and you will also sharespike strips.

You will roam around a diverse map that could make you feel nostalgic for the original NFS tracks. Just like in its previous NFS HP version, you will experience some coastal love, deserts, deeply wooded areas, and snow that is typical to see in a fictional area of Seacrest County. Moreover, they also brought back the autolog feature here wherein you can track your friends’ every step and fuel competition. But, frankly, the only thing that was significantly added here is the cross-platform play support as you can compete now with anyone and not just friends who share a copy of the PC, Xbox, or PlayStation version.

Theambient lightit added looks splendid, and thetextures are more refinedas compared to the past, mainly because it now provides a4K supportand60 frames per second. However, it is still not enough to be considered as a remastered game as it did not change much from its predecessor, specifically gameplay-wise. It is quite a disappointment as the developers left a lot on the table. Honestly, if you have experienced Seacrest County in the past, you will notmiss muchwith this remastered version.

Too lacking to be considered as remastered

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered successfully maintained the same feels of exciting thrill and stimulating rush. It also offers the exact grand NFS experience that you loved in its previous version. However, for it to be considered a great remastered version, this lacks more enhanced and improved elements.
