One thing Need for Speed needs in every game is an online free roam mode. Non-negotiable in my opinion. Luckily, it looks like Ghost Games is working on releasing just that! Starting soon, there will be an online free roam mode and it will be free to all players and will include lobbies to get people to play together, this is exciting news!
The news was announced on New Year’s day via the official Twitter for Need for Speed!

I can’t say I’ve enjoyed my time with Payback, feeling it takes many steps back after the excellent Need for Speed released in 2015, it’s a shame that EA and Ghost Games didn’t live up to the wonderful game the preceded Payback, but with time, there may enough to make me come back to this one.
