How do we know? A trailer told us so!

Below we have for you, fresh from the press, EA's latest promotional video for Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit entitled “Uncovered”. Aside from packing a truck load smashes, crashes and high-speed chases into two fast and furious minutes, the trailer concludes by revealing a release date for a public demo.

If you’re anything like me you will have been keeping a close eye on Criterion Games’ Twitter page since Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit was officially revealed at this year’s E3 Expo. The British developer, world-renowned for the highly-successful Burnout series, is on track to restore the Need for Speed franchise to its former, pre-Underground glory, and naturally fans are desparate to find out all they can prior to the game’s November release. Over the last few days, the company’s Tweets have let some, um, 'most wanted' details slip (see what I did there?).

Believe it or not, the title of this article is entirely true. EA’s Marketing Vice President Keith Munro explained during an interview printed in the latest issue of EDGE Magazine that the upcoming addition to the Need for Speed series was, in part, inspired by the Bad Company and Call of Duty franchises.

Criterion Games has recently unveiled the official trailer for Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit following the games announcement at E3, and you can watch it right here with just a click of your mouse.
