Developed by Criterion Games · Published by Electronic Arts
In Redview County, take the role of a street racer or a police officer in separate campaigns. The rivalry unfolds across an open road network, with brief story scenes framing each side’s perspective.
Drive through races, time trials, and pursuit events, or encounter other racers and police while exploring the county. As a racer, evade police and compete in events; as a cop, pursue and arrest racers.
Complete campaign objectives to advance and unlock cars and equipment. Racers earn Speed Points while driving, which can be lost if they are caught or wrecked before banking them; both sides can equip pursuit technology for chases. Online servers are no longer available, so play is limited to single-player.
Players who enjoy the game often highlight its tense cop-versus-racer chases, fast arcade driving, and the option to play both sides of the rivalry. Reviews also praise the pursuit gadgets and the look and variety of the open-road setting. Some still enjoy the solo campaigns, while others say the loss of online play takes away a key part of the experience.
