While the original date for the Need for Speed PC early access via Origin Access wasn’t set until tomorrow, 3.10.2016. It looks like EA has decided to start a day early and has allowed anyone who signed up for Origin Access to download and play the title as of today. I’m currently downloading as I type and will stream this bad boy later on today.
So if you have Origin Access and are curious about the improvements to Need for Speed PC, definitely get your download and check it out for your self. For those without Origin Access, Need for Speed PC releases on March 15, 2016.
