Criterion Software

We’re Criterion Games and we make video games. You’ll know us from the Burnout series, Black and two recent Need For Speed games: Hot Pursuit and Most Wanted.

We love games. Innovation drives us and we have a rich history of embracing cutting edge tech to bring you original gaming experiences, from Mugshots to Freeburn Challenges, Easydrive to Autolog.

After years dominating the driving scene with Burnout and Need For Speed, we’re ready to go Beyond Cars. We’re working on something new and unexpected. It will also be familiar with everything that you expect from a Criterion Game. That will, of course, make the most sense when we show it. Can’t say much more for now, hit the Follow tab to find us on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube or keep checking back here to make sure you don’t miss the action.

Our philosophy is to make games that are Fun, Exhilarating, Accessible and Highly Connected to you and your friends, whatever the subject matter. Our studio environment is one of fun and energetic creative collaboration
