5.9
Need for Speed Payback is a big, competent, and confident arcade racer but it's really let down by its linear cop chases, its overwrought and insidious upgrade system, its dreadful dialogue, and its superficial action sequences. It feels fine and it looks flashy, but Payback really went all-in on its direct-to-DVD revenge tale and it was a bust for me.

Need for Speed returns in this, a grossly unremarkable open world racer that marks another step back for the series.

Enjoyable arcade handling packaged within a game that gets monotonous long before it rewards your time investment.

This open world has plenty of racing content, but bad progression, technical problems, and throwaway storytelling make it hard to get invested

Dull and uninspired, with a relentless emphasis on grinding, Need for Speed Payback is neither fast nor furious.
