Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010)

The Aston Martin DBS appears in Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010) as a Super Series racer vehicle, and as an SCPD Rapid Deployment unit.

The racer vehicle is unlocked as part of the SCPD Rebels Pack for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and EA Crew releases. The SCPD unit is unlocked upon the player earning a total of 90,000 cop bounty.

The DBS has a heavy steering response and average acceleration. It is not as competitive in races as a Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4 or Aston Martin V12 Vantage, but is still useful in police chases.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2012)

The DBS appears as a Grand Tourer class car in the Movie Legends Pack for the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 releases of Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2012).

Purchasing the Movie Legends Pack will immediately unlock the DBS within Singleplayer. It is unlocked in Multiplayer upon the player completing 6 SpeedList events in the Pontiac Firebird T/A.

Its statistics are comparable to the V12 Vantage although the DBS is lighter.
