Eager fans will remember Burnout Paradise with great fondness, as it offered a fantastic combination high-octane racing with blockbuster car crashes. Naturally, the rumblings of a remastered on modern platforms would be somewhat of an exciting prospect for those who enjoyed such a classic, and said prospect appears to be coming very true.
Rumors had been circling regarding a remaster, and it has now been confirmed to be hitting Xbox One and PS4 on March 16th, which was the date that had been previously leaked. It is also set to launch on PC later in 2018 via Origin. If you have EA Access, then you will have access to the game on March 9th, with a First Play Trial for 10 hours of unrestricted gameplay.
A statement from EA reads:
Burnout Paradise Remastered includes the original base game and the eight add-on game packs released during the Year of Paradise*, including the extension to the drivable world with Big Surf Island. Burnout Paradise Remastered also features a range of technical enhancements for greater visual fidelity, including high resolution textures for players to explore Paradise City in 4K with supporting 60FPS on the PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X.
Will you be hitting the disastrous streets of Paradise once again? You won’t have long to wait if you are on Xbox One and PS4.
