Need for Speed Heat Reviews
Need for Speed Heat manages to successfully mix the game’s modern formula with the glory days to deliver the best Need for Speed experience in years
Need for Speed's latest instalment is one of its better efforts in recent years.
Need For Speed Heat is a fun racing game that is still held back by a weak, multiplayer, story, and lack of event variety.
Need for Speed: Heat clearly shows why the series needs a serious stop to reorganise itself.

Need for Speed: Heat is a decent racing game but it has a serious balance problem in the police chasing part.

The adrenaline-inducing, high stakes nightlife of Need for Speed Heat is an exciting idea that pushes the franchise forward after years of stagnation.
Ultimately, the game hits home where it matters: Despite its flaws, it is a lot of fun.
After a series of bad games, the Need for Speed franchise is back on the right track. It offers gorgeous visuals, beautiful car customization and solid gameplay mechanics in an open world.
It’s Need for Speed through and through, for better or worse, but the execution is far better here than the last few attempts I’ve made to dive back in.
Need for Speed Heat is the best Need for Speed game in the 8th generation of video games. Heat offers great diversity in game modes and car customization is crafted perfectly in this game. of course, some bugs and lack of good stories are present, but still Heat is a very fun game to play.

Need for Speed Heat is certainly the best NFS in 8th generation but far from Best in the series. An exciting, stunning, entertaining and maybe addictive racing game that you can play and enjoy for hours.

Ghost Games has delivered a great new addition to the Need for Speed franchise, with Heat certainly bringing the 'heat' with its relentless cop pursuits that play out against a beautifully-looking Palm City.
Overall, when Need for Speed: Heat is producing its promised fantasy, it’s a wonderful game which I’m always happy to keep coming back to.
Need for Speed Heat is an average game that maintains some essential elements of the franchise, with some poor implementations that sabotaged the project itself.

Like comfort food for fans who've loved the Underground/Most Wanted games from back in the day. The day and night system is addictive, the cars feel great and distinct, the visuals are fantastic (especially at night) and the old-school customization is back and better than ever.
A fantastic sense of speed and exciting night-time racing help make Need for Speed Heat the best entry into the series in a while, even though the online component is mostly dead-on-arrival and progression can feel like a grind at times due to a stingy economy.
New NFS wants to be perfect, but it does not offer so much, it is only good driving game with dynamic weather and a lot of customisation.

In the end, Need for Speed Heat is a return to the series' old form, with an emphasis on "old."
Though it still can't match the scope of Forza Horizon 4, Need for Speed: Heat is a great racing game in its own right.
Need for Speed Heat is far from the revival of the series which fans have hoped for, and makes you wonder what happened to Criterion. Ghost games did a decent job steering back Need for Speed into safer waters, but it lacks the passion and the visceral fun which made Underground legendary. Need for Speed Heat is a decent game, but not a memorable one.
