While the PlayStation 3 saw a couple of Burnout games from Criterion Games, don’t expect a new one anytime soon, or even a remaster of the last Burnout game made by the developer, Burnout Paradise.
This little nugget of info was revealed by the official Criterion Twitter account when asked by a fan if Burnout Paradise would be brought over to the PS4 by the studio.
No plans for anything along those lines at the moment, Cliff. https://t.co/omt85drExt

In addition to that, Criterion answered why cars in Burnout Paradise don’t explode when they crash, and it’s not really a design decision, as more of an aesthetic one.
At the time we couldn’t make explosions of a high enough standard that didn’t also hurt the other systems in the game (and network play). https://t.co/msy0V2s48w

Will we see Burnout again anytime soon? Your guess is as good as mine. Criterion is helping DICE develop Star Wars Battlefront II, which is scheduled to be released later this year.
