Prologue

The Prologue of Need for Speed (2015) introduces the player to Ventura Bay, and the crew of drivers looking to impress their Driving Icons, through a series of missions.

The opening sees the player racing through the streets of Ventura Bay in a Ford Mustang Foxbody (1990) against a BMW M3 Evolution II E30 (1988), but the race is quickly disbanded as a VCPD cruiser attempts to engage the racers in a pursuit.

The player hides under the cover of Interstate 5 to evade the police, but is quickly noticed by Spike for their impressive driving and is invited to a party at the club.

	bl@h #1	Prelude Meet Spike at the Club

Arriving at the club, the player moves through the crowd slowly spotting the various driving icons hanging out with their associates at the club. They meet up with Spike and Robyn before being taken to the garage to meet Amy, and eventually getting face to face with Travis.

Travis offers the player a choice of three starter cars; a Honda Civic Type-R (2000), a Ford Mustang Foxbody (1990), or a Subaru BRZ Premium (2014), in exchange for a small amount of cash. After choosing their starter car, the player is invited by Spike to meet the rest of the crew.

As the player leaves the diner, they are called by Amy and asked to meet up with her at the garage in Burnwood.
