It might’ve been released too close to the holidays for most, but if you enjoyed older Need for Speed games, you need to grab this one. Even as the first current-generation only entry in the series, Need for Speed Unbound is a joy to play on Steam Deck. When you dash through first place, don’t forget to do winning poses beside your moneymaker (your car)!Īs someone who played a ton of Need for Speed II SE back in the day and loved Need for Speed Underground, I’m glad to finally have experienced a modern game in the series that has been a joy to play.

Will you face the cops head on? Will you hide from them, or will you outrun them? As cops turn up the pressure, you’ll need to make tactical decisions by employing escape schemes.


Equip your garage with fine-tuned, customized race cars, and demonstrate your speed as you set the streets ablaze! Clinch the first place in style! Outthink the cops and participate in the weekly qualifiers to make it in the ultimate street race, Lakeshore’s The Grand.
