EA-owned car culture site Speedhunters, known for its association with Need for Speed, might have been shut down as it hasn't published new content since April 3 and its online store is inaccessible.
Reports suggest Speedhunters' hiatus coincides with EA's focus on developing the next Battlefield game, leading to speculation about the future of the car culture platform.
Founded in 2008 and backed by EA since its inception, Speedhunters has been a prominent source of car-related articles alongside coverage and promotions for the NFS series.
Amid uncertain circumstances, former contributors express disappointment over the potential closure of Speedhunters, attributing its struggles to limited attention and resources within the expansive EA portfolio.
