Press Release
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.
Yesterday EA Games announced the name of the 7th Burnout game in the series, previously dubbed "Burnout 5", as "Burnout Paradise". The press release has pretty much confirmed the rumours of being able to free roam. Online gameplay has also been mentioned along with the hint of a returning crash mode, something which I'm sure a lot of fans missed in Dominator.
The announcement of the name of the game came with the first official screenshots. There are 4 all together, click on a thumbnail below to enlarge it.
A short video has also been published. I have taken some screen caps of the video and you can view some below and the rest on the Burnout Paradise Video Cap page. I'm sure you'd love to see the video yourself too so I have uploaded it for you to download or you can view it at YouTube, just check out the links below.

EA have also opened the official Burnout Paradise teaser site. You can visit it at the link below. Official Burnout Paradise Teaser Site
