Need for Speed Carbon

Need for Speed Carbon throws players into a furious street race gripping a heart-pounding chase from the neon-lit canyons to the drifting waves of Palmont City’s crew wars and endlessly hot challenges, where the underground gang fights and drift duels decide who will dominate. The game introduces a new Crew system, which makes it possible for players to gather a team of racers with special qualities—Blockers who interfere with the opponents, Drafters who get fuel from slipstreaming, and Scouts who uncover the secret passages—and thus a tactical layer is added to the high-speed chases. The Career Battles of the game throw players into the very edge of danger as they fight against rivals going at full speed on the narrow road along the cliff, where a single mistake is enough to lose them in the abyss.

Drift mechanics are enhanced for accuracy, requiring full control of weight transfer and throttle to achieve the longest and most point-rich slides through narrow urban turns. The Autosculpt feature of the game allows players to customize every visual detail of their cars, from hot body kits to fully customized spoilers. Meanwhile, performance tuning changes the handling to the players’ choice, whether it’s aggressive drifting or smooth grip racing.

In the daytime, Palmont’s districts are alive with police heat levels and rival crew taunts; at night, however, the city is a shadowy place for lots of glowing headlights and major engines breathing down your neck, where races are happening in alleys and industrial zones without any invitation. Carbon’s blend of electronic rock and hip-hop pumps you full of adrenaline and gets you into the need for speed, the power of loyalty, and the fight for the streets game.
