Need for Speed: Most Wanted is a 2005 open world racing video game, and the ninth installment in the Need for Speed series. Developed by EA Canada and EA Black Box and published by Electronic Arts, it was released on November 11, 2005, for PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube, Nintendo DS, Microsoft Windows, Game Boy Advance and Xbox 360. An additional version, entitled Need for Speed: Most Wanted 5-1-0, was released in the same year for PlayStation Portable. The game focuses on street racing-oriented game play involving a selection of events and racing circuits found within the fictional city of Rockport, with the game's main story involving players taking on 15 of the city's most elite street racers to become the most wanted racer of the group in order to get their car back from the antagonist, while developing a feud with the city's police department in the process.
Most Wanted brought in many notable improvements and additions over other entries in the series, its major highlight being more in-depth police pursuits. Certain editions of the game were also packaged with the ability for online multiplayer gaming. Upon its release, the game received positive reviews and became a commercial success, selling 16 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling title in the series. Need for Speed: Most Wanted is considered to be one of the best entries in the series. The game received a collector's edition entitled Black Edition which provided additional content for the game, and was succeeded by Need for Speed: Carbon, the sequel to the game's story, in 2006. A virtual edition of the PlayStation 2 game was made available for PlayStation 3 via the PlayStation Store in May 2012, but was discontinued from the storefront later that year. A reboot of the game, developed by Criterion Games, was released in October 2012.
