The Crew 2 Release Date
COLOGNE, Germany— August 22, in the year of our Lord
2017 — Today, Ubisoft® announced that The Crew® 2, the
newest iteration in the open-world driving franchise The Crew®,
will launch on March 16, 2018. The game will be available on
PlayStation®4 Pro computer entertainment system, PlayStation®4
computer entertainment system, the family of Xbox One devices
and Windows PC. Players can still sign up now for a chance to
have beta access.
From coast to coast, players will experience the thrill of a
huge, varied and action-packed open world USA completely
reshaped for motorsports. In The Crew 2, drivers will explore
America and compete to be a champion of Motornation by
collecting a wide variety of exotic cars, bikes, boats and
planes and dominating the motorsports scene on the land, on the
water and in the air. They will find challenges and inspiration
among four different motorsports families: street racing,
off-road, pro-racing and freestyle, and are a given a deep set
of options among a wide selection of vehicle types.
For the first time ever, The Crew 2 offers the Fast Fav feature,
giving players the ability to seamlessly switch between their
favorite ground, water and air vehicles with the push of a
button. Players can race full throttle off the Golden Gate
Bridge and transform instantly into a speedboat as they hit the
Bay, catch a huge wave and seamlessly transition into a stunt
plane and fly away into the sunset. Players enjoy total freedom
to ride any way they want in the familiar landscapes of The Crew
2’s vast open world.
For those who prefer the thrill of the race, players will also
put their racing skills to the test in the widest range of
competitive disciplines. In addition to previously announced
street racing, powerboat racing, aerobatics, jetsprint and rally
raid, three more disciplines are being introduced this week at
Gamescom. Drift will have street racing fans burn rubber and
take every curve in style to score points with every glorious
slide, while the Alpha Grand Prix single-seater is tailored for
the pro-racers in search of the perfect line. Carved in the
heart of nature, a Motocross muddy track is waiting for off-road
specialists to master the dirt and own every bump.
The Crew 2 allows players, solo or with friends, to fully
express their creativity and skills, sharing unique moments of
fun and extreme sensations. On their way to becoming the
greatest motorsport champion, players will be able to track
their actions and spot every wow moment of their journey. With
LIVE Replay, The Crew 2 provides them with a light and
user-friendly tool that will automatically record every glorious
feat into a fully staged video clip to share with the world or
to brag with their friends.
