Tess is an antagonist in the 2022 racing video game Need for Speed: Unbound. She is a street racer from Lakeshore who seemingly befriends Rydell and the player, nicknamed "Speedie", after their friend Yaz betrayed them and stole their car and several others from Rydell's garage until she was revealed to be responsible for the raid and was making money off of Speedie.

She was voiced by Jennifer Sun Bell.

Biography[]

The player (Speedie) meets Tess at a street racing meet-up, where she briefly works at Rydell's Rides with them. Picking people up and recovering abandoned cars, she humiliates Yaz (Jasmine) when she insults her behind Rydell's back. She becomes Speedie's guide for the game, orchestrating all the delivery missions.

However, at the third week, she reveals her true nature that she orchestrated the raid with Alec that almost drove Rydell out of business, and she was only using Speedie for her own benefit. She tells Speedie and Yaz that Alec will reward them handsomely if they both forfeited from The Lakeshore Grand.

Speedie and Yaz, both having reconciled, turn on Tess and win The Grand shortly after this once it comes. Before parting ways with the pair, Tess reveals she was never working for Alec and was making money on whatever bets and races at her disposal. With Alec financially ruined, Tess thanks the player for the money and leaves.

Personality[]

Tess seems happy and bubbly until she reveals she orchestrated the heist on Rydell's Rides and was profiting off of Speedie's winnings. She turns on them eventually, and has no trouble taking very big risks.

She is also cunning since she was able to make off with some money even after Alec's defeat, which proves that she is only motivated by profits and has no loyalty to anyone she works with. However, she doesn't hold any animosity towards Speedie and Yaz when the former wins The Grand, suggesting she has some respect for them, and parts way peacefully once her goals are met.

Trivia[]

  • She is the first street racing antagonist in the Need for Speed franchise to not race directly against the player.
