Ea is putting the breaks on the next Need for Speed game by postponing information technology for a class, and instead moving developer Touchstone Games onto a support role happening Field 6 with Cube.

The news comes from Ea Chief Studios Officer Lauara Miele WHO was speaking to Polygon and mentioned that the motion actually gives the Criterion team up time to respire, which has been made possible thanks to Ea's recent acqusition of Codemasters who will themselves be putting out at least one racing game this class, widely believed to be this year's licensed Recipe Cardinal game.

Speechmaking on moving Criterion to Battlefield 6, Miele aforementioned: "[Field of battle] is shaping up zealous, the team has been working incredibly hard, they pushed hard hold out year, and yes, we make been functioning from home. And it's hard; it's hard to make games from home, and the [EA DICE] team is dog-tired a minute."

"We have a great game and whatsoever incredible potential with this brave. We're playing to win; we're playing to put a great Battlefield game call at the grocery."

Information technology does appear that Criterion will be returning to Call for for Race after information technology finishes up on Field 6, however, with Miele adding "They own the Want for Speed franchise; that's wherefore they managed the remaster. Anything that's on within the Need for Speed brand, they are responsible for, or things bring home the bacon them to ensure that they're on board with it."
