Need for Speed Payback Online Free Roam Online free roam is coming to Need for Speed Payback in 2018 it has been announced and it will be free to all! Revealed through the official Need for Speed social media accounts along with a new year’s message and an image depicting a VW Beetle decked out in a 2018 livery being chased by a BMW Mini while fireworks are going off in the background, the new mode will be welcomed by current players and, could draw in those who waited. As who – providing the functionality allows it – doesn't like to host their own car meets and show off their classy looking motors to their mates and other randoms. [caption id=attachment_7605" align="aligncenter" width="800] Online free roam is coming to NFS Payback this year[/caption] There are no known details about how the mode will function, the player numbers supported, if police pursuits and/or traffic will be in, or even a release window for the update except for that it is still being worked on. However you can guarantee they will be getting plenty of feedback and requests from their community into how and what they want to see in it. And here’s hoping they don’t just listen to popular faces, but actually listen to their hardened fans who are not afraid to give constructive criticism and voice their concerns. As fans of free roam driving we will be keeping a look out for this and really do hope Ghost deliver with this new mode. And let's not forget that it will be going up against The Crew 2 and – if release schedules keep to their usual – Forza Horizon 4. Ah yes, it could again be another bumper year for the racing game this one.
