by Fernando Diaz / Articles, Need for Speed / 08 Apr 2022

You’ve unleashed the beast!! Need for Speed Rivals: Complete Edition is ALIVE! Feel the POWER! The Ferraris hum sweet whoppers, the Lambos roar defiance, the Koenigsegg… uh, it probably teleports: you’re an asphalt god. a chaos maestro! Or… you might have tried to drift effortlessly around a turn and in the process created a shockwave that sent three civilian cars and a decidedly unlucky mailbox on a low-orbit joyride of merry destruction. Whoops. Turns out, orchestrating high-speed chases and piloting advanced military hardware means knowing which button doesn’t launch you into the closest Denny’s parking lot.

This humble scroll contains the revered keybindings for PC & Xbox. Memorize it, or your next chase will result in you trying to jam police radar by flashing your lights on and off.
