EA Reveals PC Requirements for Need for Speed Unbound
The entirely next-gen Need for Speed experience, Need for Speed Unbound, is less than a week away only, and the hype for the game is building up to new highs mostly due to the recently leaked gameplay footage of Need for Speed Unbound days before its release.
The leaked footage got promising reviews; some fans loved the new aesthetic, while others appreciated EA’s decision to bring back the old-school street racing to the franchise. Although the pre-load for the game will start tomorrow, today, the PC requirements for Need for Speed Unbound were revealed.

The PC requirements are not that hardware hungry considering the fact that the game is next-gen only and will be released for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC only. The gamers on the last-gen consoles will miss the adrenaline rush of drifting off the streets of Lakeshore city. Still, the overall PC requirements are not that wild if we look at the current-gen of GPUs and the game is playable on a decent rig.
