You’re free to invite racers you meet to free-roam through the map or to events, keep them NPC-only, or form a party with friends and tackle activities together. The multiplayer gameplay supports servers for up to 16 players. To cash in you have to make it to a safe house to cash in the multiplier, before the cops on your tail catch you, as they will not stop at the finish line and will continue their pursuit even after you finish your illegal race.Ĭops will follow the player with the most Heat, so if you get close to another player with more Heat during multiplayer, they will shift the attention onto them. The higher the Heat, the more aggressive the cops get. It increases the more illegal stunts you perform, but there’s a catch. Now, there is also the Heat factor, which is a score multiplier tied to Rep, active at night only. You can switch from day to night at any time, but you can’t leave the latter until you’ve made it back to one of the safe houses dotted around the map. And you can only earn Bank completing daytime events. But you have to buy the parts first that’s where Bank, the in-game currency, comes in. Doing so unlocks more car parts, which will upgrade your ride.

You can only increase Rep through night time events.

To be the best means to mix both and gain on Rep, your player level. Sanctioned events are organized and run during the hours of sunlight, letting you perfect those racing lines and rank up in the leaderboard, driving in closed courses. Need for Speed Heat focuses on giving you the opportunity to drive around during the day and the night. Race thru Palm City, an open world inspired by iconic landmarks along the US eastern seaboard: the sweeping Georgia mountains, the sun-kissed streets of Miami. Need for Speed Heat is the first entry in the racing franchise since Need for Speed Payback in 2017.
