Medal Of Honor And Need For Speed Games For 2012 Confirmed

Medal of Honor will be EA's big shooter for the fourth quarter of 2012, while a new Need for Speed game will also debut this year, according to a now deleted tweet by UK retailer Game.

"EA presentation was great, had mentions of a new Medal of Honour and Need for Speed 13! EA have an exciting year ahead."

Last year, Medal of Honor dev Danger Close was hiring for a Frostbite 2-powered shooter with a 'multiplayer focus'.

The news maked a 2012 appearance for Respawn Entertainment's as-yet-unannounced first game extremely unlikely.

Meanwhile, recent racer Need For Speed: The Run, developed by Black Box, received mixed reviews, with many hoping the franchise will return to Criterion, who made 2010's excellent NFS: Hot Pursuit.

Expect official confirmation from EA as and when.
