I still see most of them on Steam, minus Carbon and The Run which were never sold there in the first place, so you can still grab 'em if you've been meaning to. ![]() They're supposed to be gone from sale already but I still see 'em, so get in now if you hanker for momentum.ĮA announced yesterday, on May 31st, that starting May 31st they would remove NFS Carbon, NFS Undercover, NFS Shift, NFS Shift 2: Unleashed, and NFS The Run from sale on digital storefronts. These include NFS The Run and NFS Shift 2: Unleashed - games certainly more interesting than dross like 2017's NFS Payback. EA are pulling several older games in their racing series from sale, and plan to shut down online services and end multiplayer for them too. ![]() If you've got that need, that need for Need For Speed, you might be out of luck.
