It’s been a long time since the last major release of the most beloved saga of Criteria sets: Burnout. It was in 2008 when it was launched Heavena delivery critically acclaimedbut what failed to translate into very good sales. The same thing happened with its remaster in 2018.
The latest release from the studio was Need for speed rivals. Since then, EA decided to relieve Criterion for help develop other titles, keeping them away from continuing to create their own games. Also, Criterion is back as the main development studio thanks to the imminent Unlimited need for speed.
Kieran Criimminsstudio veteran and creative director of Unboundcommented through an interview granted to Eurogamer What they would be delighted to work at Burnout. Unfortunately, however, it seems no “immediate plans” yet to revive the saga.
It also says that if so, they should expand the team to be able to process both sagas at the same time. It’s something that this can happen if your versions are “working fine”but make sure of course Criterion’s next work will not be a Burnout.
By the way, don’t forget to follow the Xbox Zone and Unlimited need for speed launches December 2 on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC. You now have a 10 hour free trial if you are an EA Play subscriber (also with Game Pass Ultimate or Game Pass for PC).
I’ve been playing video games for as long as I can remember, so you can tell I like talking about it.
