Need for Speed: Most Wanted is the next installment in EA's biggest racing franchise, if an invite to TwitchTV's E3 2012 booth is on the level.

A new Most Wanted game will be the next installment in EA's Need for Speed racing franchise, if an invite to TwitchTV's E3 2012 booth is on the level.

EA confirmed that it was developing a new Need for Speed title during its latest quarterly investor's call. A listing from South African games retailer BTGames pinned that game as Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2 in April, though no further confirmation about the return of the Cops & Robbers series surfaced since then. That is, until today, when a press release invitation to Twitch.TV's E3 booth revealed that EA's showcase includes Need for Speed: Most Wanted.

Now, this could of course mean that Twitch.TV is showcasing the 2005 racer of the same name. However, considering how every other game on the streaming site's schedule is an upcoming release, we find that difficult to believe.
