Need for Speed: The Run Demo Available October 18, Trailer Out Already

Racing fans from all around the world will be able to take the upcoming Need for Speed: The Run for a test drive on October 18, when Electronic Arts, its publisher, and Black Box, its developer, will deploy a demo for it onto consoles like the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Need for Speed: The Run has gotten a lot of people excited, largely because it marks a return to story-based titles for the racing franchise, and because it's running on the all-new Frostbite 2 engine, courtesy of Battlefield 3 developer DICE.

We've seen quite a lot of details about The Run appear, including the large array of cars available for its protagonist, Jack, and how his adventures will also include on-foot sequences dominated by quick time events.

Now, EA and Black Box have confirmed that a demo will be released ahead of the game's November launch, but only on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms, leaving the PC, Nintendo Wii or 3DS out of the equation.

"Electronic Arts today announced that gamers will get a chance to test their mettle in an action-packed demo for Need for Speed The Run beginning October 18. Using the Need for Speed franchise’s signature Autolog feature*, gamers will compete to see who will come out on top and who will be left in the dust as they race through the Desert Hills of California and Independence Pass of Colorado."

Two cars are available for The Run demo, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni, and the 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S, which is unlocked after players refer to a friend to download the demo.

NFS: The Run demo will be out on the North American PlayStation Network and worldwide Xbox Live Marketplace on October 18, and last until November 1, while European PSN members get to download it between October 19 and November 1.

A special trailer depicting gameplay from the two tracks with the two cars mentioned above has been released, so enjoy it below until The Run demo hits later this month. The full game is set to be released on November 15, in North America, and November 18, in Europe.
