NFS: Payback coming on STEAM?

Does anyone have any kind of information on this? So far I see no confirmation, that I will be able to buy this game on STEAM and I do not wish to use Origin just to play 1 game.

  • There is absolutely no way EA are going to push their game through Steam when they are trying to encourage people to use their Origin platform which Steam directly competes with.

    Yes this is dumb, yes it is annoying but them's the apples.

    Only 3 games on steam that are from NFS series,

    Need For Speed Underground

    Need For Speed Hot Pursuit

    Need For Speed Shift

    Need For Speed Payback will most likely not be on steam now, if you are lucky it might end up there some time.

    Need For Speed 2015 is not on steam even after 2 years after release

    Maybe you know the reasoning behind this? Because I see no reasonable explanation to this, why EA or STEAM doesn't want this to happen. I'd like every NFS game to be available in STEAM, that is the only place I buy games from.

    i do not disagree on you on that, its the same thing with Uplay,

    but its a market thingy i guess, Ubisoft have their games mainly on Uplay for own benefit same with EA and Orgins, ofc some of their games is on steam aswell but i think all in all its just about profitt benefits, but i think @EA_Andy or someone from EA can answer that part.

    BUT! i think we can add the game to steam libary if u like 🙂 i did that with Ghost Recon Wildlands becouse i bought it on Uplay but play it trough Steam

    I do know, that not steam related games can also be added, but that's not the same. Personal opinion and preferences there. Well, maybe someone from EA could answer this and maybe even rise a question at the HQ about launching the game in STEAM as well?

    Niether is the run (2011)

    Most Wanted (2012)

    Rivals (2013)

    NFS 2015

    so the latest game on steam is over 7 years old

    so if EA does add it, it will have to be well after they think the customers lost interest

    Origin is from EA that's why not steam ... The freaking game is from EA . If you sell games on steam u need you pay steam for it. How do ya think gaming stores that only sell games survive , the pay less. So why not steam makes less money... Deluxe only digital why do ya think
