Fast & Furious Crossroads revs up for launch today

Bandai Namco’s Fast & Furious title is officially at the starting line, pulling onto consoles and pulling heists on the PC as of today.

Do it fast

Seemingly screaming for a new video game is the Fast & Furious movie series. It kind of is a living video game after all, with it’s insane stunts and ludicrous story arcs. So it’s kind of a given that it’d make for some great gaming fare.

Whether it actually does or not is something that we don’t quite know, since we don’t have a review posting, but we do know that the game is officially available right now. Fast & Furious Crossroads is looking pretty sharp from this new launch trailer, and promises much of what makes the films such crowd-pleasers.

Have a look:

The Fast & Furious Crossroads story mode expands the Fast & Furious universe—with Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez and Tyrese Gibson reprising their roles as Dom Toretto, Letty Ortiz, and Roman Pearce in an action-packed adventure set across stunning global locations, including Athens, Barcelona, Morocco and New Orleans. Joining the cast are Sonequa Martin-Green (Star Trek: Discovery, The Walking Dead), Asia Kate Dillon (Billions, John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum) and Peter Stormare (Fargo, Prison Break).

Crossroads press release

The game is out now on the Xbox One, PS4, and PC, and stocks a special bonus for those buying during the launch window. According to Bandai Namco, those purchasing the game before September 7th will get access to the “Launch Pack”. What’s in that?

Well…

Players who purchase the game before September 7, 2020 will receive the Launch Pack*, which includes the inimitable Mitsubishi Eclipse, along with three unique wraps. This content will add to the novel 3 vs 3 vs 3 multiplayer mode that features three-faction, team-based, vehicular action in a variety of high-stakes missions.
