Need For Speed: SHIFT

Need For Speed: SHIFT, the newest chapter in Electronic Arts' Need For Speed series, is shaping up to be a revolution for the franchise.

Moving away from its usual brand of arcade street race, Need For Speed: SHIFT has added a new feature called Car Battle.

Offering 15 specific match-ups, SHIFT's Car Battle mode allows gamers to see which car is the best out of the two, relying on their own ability to tackle some of the world's most sought-after cars.
