For the first time, it appears that Need for Speed Unbound’s high-quality video leaks have started circulating on the web. The two videos have spread ablaze on YouTube, unveiling eye-catching NFS Unbound gameplay in all its glory.
While not the most immaculate quality available, you can enjoy the leaked gameplay in up to 1080p definition. Moreover, the leaked footage is enough to entertain everyone for almost 20 minutes with the raw Need for Speed Unbound experience. The surfaced footage is seemingly from a pre-release build.

- One of the videos is 15 minutes long and comes with a 720p definition, and the second is 4 minutes long, with pristine 1080p quality.
The first video is quite a fulfilling experience, revealing 15 extensive minutes of gameplay, albeit only in the 720p definition. The footage gives a deep insight into what to expect in terms of gameplay and graphics quality from Need for Speed Unbound.
The second video finishes as soon as you start getting mesmerized by the glamorous high-quality gameplay. The 4 long yet short minutes provide fantastic 1080p quality.
