Creating Need for Speed: Unbound's Signature Style

The Frostbite team had the pleasure of interviewing Adonis Stevenson, the VFX Director at Criterion Games. Adonis explained to us how the team created the signature visual effects style used in Need for Speed: Unbound.

Frostbite’s new VFX system gave the team at Criterion what they needed to design, implement, and experiment with their style while finding the fun in their latest Need for Speed title. 

This is just a small glimpse of the incredible effort that went into making this standout visual style. You can learn more in Adonis’ GDC 2023 talk, “Developing the Stylized VFX of ‘Need for Speed Unbound,’” which is now available in the GDC Vault.
