Electronic Arts acaba de confirmar el nuevo título de Burnout 5, el cual estará disponible para la Xbox 360 y PS3t. El juego en cuestión se llamará Burnout Paradise, y la fecha estimada para salir es a finales de 2007.

De los nuevos detalles que han revelado es que en vez de seguir la tradicional línea de carreras predefinidas, el juego ahora adoptará un mundo abierto, donde podrás ir a donde quieras, cuando quieras, como quieras.

Al menos sé de una persona que le van a gustar estas noticias, y lo del open-world, suena bastante interesante. El comunicado de prensa y unas cuantas imágnes, después del salto.

Guildford, UK – April 30, 2007 – Electronic Arts Inc., (NASDAQ: ERTS) today announced the title for the revolutionary new Burnout™ videogame currently in development for the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360™ videogame system. Players will be able to take their dangerous driving experience to a whole new level when Burnout™ Paradise is unleashed this winter.

Burnout Paradise proves that crashing is awesome! Next generation technology has enabled an unprecedented level of crash deformation allowing you to experience the most explosive pile-ups in the series’ history. Now the development team can realise their original vision for the Burnout franchise: an open world environment where you can do anything, anywhere, anytime!

“We have been working towards Burnout Paradise for quite some time. Next generation consoles have opened up a raft of new gameplay opportunities and the Criterion team has leapt at the chance to innovate and raise the bar to an all-new high,” said Pete Hawley, Executive Producer, Burnout Paradise. “There are going to be some big surprises and a lot of new features but the core of the game is still pure Burnout. Instant accessibility will be reinforced by innovative on-line capabilities which will see Burnout Paradise smash racing conventions.’’

Feel the adrenaline course through your veins as you take to the road for the first time in Paradise City, where the action is all around you. Explore the city, discover events, and look for the best opportunities to crash, jump and pull signature takedowns. In Burnout Paradise you’re given the keys to the city, but it’s up to you to earn the keys to the meanest and most dangerous cars on the street, and earn your Burnout licence.
