PS2 Preview Build
A later build, known as 'Alpha 124' dated September 20th, 2005. Clearly much closer to the final game than the PS2 demo, but it still has differences worth noting.

- The story intro used the cooldown music, probably as a placeholder.
- The sequence when a cop is seen is different, the world doesn't pause for a second like in the final version.

- Webster's Blacklist picture was different.
- You could originally encounter cops during drag races and during boss races.
- All of the event and place markers were different.

Since the Wanted racers are vanquished, their vehicles have been added to the participant’s list the moment that the participant wrecks them. It’s comparable to Burnout heaven and its starts and completed point players may choose their own path. A larger role of Most wanted gives more information to players. This game allowed players to earn Speed Points.
The driving version of this game was depicted as”deep, physical and enjoyable”, much less arcade-styled since the Burnout structure and Hot Pursuit, however a very long way from an evaluation system. NFS: Most Wanted game has a range of authentic vehicles, a combination of muscular autos, street racers and exotics, depicted as”the many from management selection of vehicles nonetheless”.
