Story

In the city of Fortune Valley, skilled driver Tyler Morgan and his crewmates - off-roader Sean MacAllister, skilled spy Jessica Miller, and trusty mechanic Ravindra Chaudhry - live it up in the underground scene of street racing. However, after a job set by race fixer Lina Navarro ends in a shocking betrayal, Ty and his crew, partnered with "the Gambler" Marcus Weir, plot their revenge against the House, a nasty cartel running Fortune Valley's underground, by entering the Outlaw's Rush, a high-stakes street race where the elites race against each other. Action-packed chases, tight-knit street crews, and high-octane showdowns await in Fortune Valley.

It's time...for PAYBACK!
