The game will feature international movie star, Maggie Q, as detective Chase Linh, one of the lead characters of the game. The live-action sequences from Carbon and Most Wanted will return in Undercover. Police chases from previous installments will also return, as well a new Highway Battle mode.

The game’s story mode sets the player in the story as a police officer going undercover into the criminal underground of Tri-city, a fictional city where the game is set. The player’s only contact to the police is Chase Linh, played by Maggie Q.

Little information has been released about Undercover’s police system, but it has been confirmed by EA that the police vehicles will incorporate Nissan GTRs and helicopters. As seen in the screenshots, Ford Mustang GTs, and from earlier titles (Most Wanted and Carbon), SUV “Rhino”s, Chevrolet Corvettes, and the Crown Victoria-based police car will also be included.
