Renault has announced the new Mégane RS will appear in the 'Need for Speed: Shift' video game.
According to Renault, "Need for Speed's development team were won over by the looks and performance credentials of New Mégane RS, and have featured it in the game's line-up of 70 cars which are considered to be the most legendary models of the past three-and-a-half decades."
To properly incorporate the Mégane into NFS: Shift, Electronic Arts spent nearly a year programming the RS to be as lifelike as possible. The end result promises to deliver a driving experience on a par with the real thing.
Unlike some video games (Gran Turismo 5), NFS: Shift is currently on sale.

Following the successful incorporation of New Mégane Coupé in Need for Speed Undercover which was released last November, Renault and Electronic Arts have continued their association with the inclusion of New Mégane R.S. in Need for Speed Shift, the latest addition to the NFS series which went on sale on September 17.
Need for Speed's development team were won over by the looks and performance credentials of New Mégane R.S., and have featured it in the game's line-up of 70 cars which are considered to be the most legendary models of the past three-and-a-half decades.
Renault's experts and Electronic Arts developers worked hand-in-hand for almost a year to make New Mégane R.S.'s role in the game as lifelike as possible.
Need for Speed Shift delivers driving sensations on a par with those felt behind the wheel of the cars themselves, and its unique gameplay features provide players with an unparalleled experience as they embark on a world tour of the planet's most legendary circuits.
Created 15 years ago, Need for Speed evolves from year to year, enabling players to enjoy the thrills of motor racing with increasing realism. More than 100 million copies of Need for Speed have been sold, making it the biggest motor racing video game franchise ever thanks to its combination of prestigious cars and incomparable technical qualities and graphics. The game is developed and published by Electronic Arts, the world's leading video game publisher, whose products constantly seek to push out the envelope when it comes to innovation, player immersion and intensity.
