new Need for Speed Unbound Leaked screenshots have surfaced on the internet thanks to retailer Neowing listing the product early. The reveal of the new NFS game is certainly imminent, but EA has been beaten by the Japanese retailer.

On the game’s listing, Neowing provided a stylized image of the game’s logo, complete with cartoon cars. Along with that were four screenshots of him showing anime-style characters and environments. This is definitely a big change for a franchise that has focused heavily on realistic visuals.
Cel-shaded visuals have proven to be polarizing in the gaming community, and it will be interesting to see how fans and newcomers rate the new aesthetic. It should be easy to do!
It’s also interesting that the game is only listed for PS5. This confirms reports that the game will only come to current generation consoles.
CDJapan spoiled the surprise a bit, but fans will still want to be on the lookout for the game’s official announcement. I hope there’s a gameplay trailer showcasing how these anime visuals are in action.
