The majority of us will check out EA Black Box’s free-to-playNeed for Speed Worldwhen it goes live for PC on July 27. The remaining audience — as in, those who cough up $20 for the game’s Starter Pack — can begin playing immediately.

What does that up-front money get you, other than early access? A “credit for $20 worth of SpeedBoost (the in-game currency), full access up to level 50, and a bundled assortment of power-ups.” Take note: non-paying players are unable to progress past level 10.
