New Need for Speed and Medal of Honor Games Leaked By Retailer




UK retailer GAME has made a pretty big mistake yesterday, when one of its social media representatives posted on Twitter details about two unannounced games from Electronic Arts, in the form of a new Need for Speed racing game and a new Medal of Honor shooter.

EA is always working on new games, most of them sequels to franchises it has owned for quite some time, but also on all-new titles in order to keep things fresh.

Its plans were foiled yesterday, however, as a representative of store chain GAME posted on Twitter that he'd just seen a presentation from EA, in which footage from new games in the Need for Speed or Medal of Honor franchises was shown.

While the confirmation isn't that big of a surprise, as EA hinted on multiple occasions at such sequels, it's good to hear it from an official source.

The Medal of Honor franchise saw a reboot back in 2010, in the form of a grittier shooter called simply Medal of Honor. A sequel was all but confirmed at the end of last year, when inserts found in Battlefield 3's retail package urged gamers to visit the Medal of Honor website soon.

The new Need for Speed game didn't receive such strong hints up until now, but it's good to hear that last year's NFS: The Run, a lackluster installment compared to other recent ones, hasn't tarnished the franchise's reputation.

The only major mystery about the new racing game is what studio is handling its development. Considering that over a year has passed since the stellar NFS: Hot Pursuit, Criterion Games might return with a new game, unless it’s working on its own Burnout series.

Fans of both franchises should expect more details in the following months and a release of both of these games towards the end of 2012, right before the winter holiday season.
