Electronic Arts and Criterion Games have revealed the content for Need For Speed Unbound – Volume 4, set to be released on August 16th. A lot is going into this new entry for the game, including a celebration of Porsche's 75th Anniversary, a new free Speed Pass, a revamp of the store, a new gift for players, a new Gauntlet Playlist, and more. We got the full details from the developers below, along with the latest trailer, as it will come to the game this Wednesday.

• Celebrate 75 Years of Porsche: Need for Speed Unbound – Volume 4 celebrates 75 years of Porsche with exciting, new themed events, cosmetics, and customizations. Players can head to the Kennedy Test Track to tear it up in a unique Porsche 75th anniversary Playlist and smash stunt-based challenges in Linkups. Plus, finish the Porsche Playlist three times to earn a fully electric Porsche Taycan Turbo S (2022).
• Gauntlet Playlists: In new Gauntlet Playlists, players will need to flex their best skills to outrace the most determined cops in Lakeshore. Get busted by the cops, and players will lose their shot at rewards, but if they can smash the field and make it to the end of the route, they'll earn big Bank and XP prizes.
• New FREE Speed Pass: Volume 4 features a refreshed 75-level Speed Pass, offering free items for players to stir up the streets. Race through Speed Pass rank 50 to earn the wildest Legendary Custom Porsche 911 Carrera S (1997) that Lakeshore has seen.
• Even More Ways to Play: Players can now access "Boosted" events in Lakeshore Online. Playlists and Linkups will unexpectedly, and for a limited time, become Boosted, giving players additional rewards when competing. Players can also experience seven new Linkup locations, including the Kennedy Test Track and Griffith Construction, and are now able to quick-route to Linkups. Volume 4 also introduces a whole new set of 20 Daily Challenges, plus 15 new One Shot Challenges, as well as a refreshed set of 39 Weekly Challenges to earn XP and Bank.
