Post-Launch Plans for The Crew 2
Recurring Free Updates Will Introduce New Disciplines, Vehicles and More
Today, Ubisoft revealed the post-launch plan for its upcoming open-world racing game The Crew® 2. The release of the game on PlayStation®4
computer entertainment system, the Xbox One family of devices including
the Xbox One X and Windows PC on June 29 is only the beginning of the
journey for all motorsports addicts, as the development team will
introduce ample new content through regular updates.
Major
free updates will occur every three months to expand the game’s
experience, enrich its
world and bring new disciplines, modes and features. The game’s first
update, Gator Rush, will be released September 2018 and will let players
enjoy a tropical cocktail of bouncy fun and wacky races on all kinds of
surfaces and playgrounds, mastering a new
and exotic discipline: the Hovercraft. This free update will also
introduce five completely new vehicles to the line-up, as well as the
new “Legendary” rarity level on performance parts that players will be
able to collect in game. In addition to major updates,
two new vehicles will be added to the existing line up each month.
More
exciting new vehicles and features are being announced, including a
brand new PvP mode planned
for the second major free update, to be released this December.
“Continuous expansion and renewal has always been at the core of our
vision for the franchise,” said Ahmed Boukhelifa, Ivory Tower Managing
Director. “For players, this means they will always
find new activities and things to discover – or re-discover from
another perspective.”
Players looking for the ultimate The Crew 2 experience will be able to do so with the Season
Pass including:
·
Three
exclusive vehicles on day one, the Porsche 911 TURBO 3.6, the
SUPERMARINE SPITFIRE MK IX and the ICE Marine BLADERUNNER 35.
·
Seven days early access to the monthly added vehicles, totaling 22 vehicles
·
One exclusive house location as well as two exclusive outfits
·
VIP 20percent discount off of the game store
Developed
by Ubisoft Ivory Tower,* a studio based in Lyon, France, The Crew 2
will let players experience the thrill of the American motorsports
spirit inside a fully redesigned USA. The game’s playground pushes
physical boundaries to let driving and open world fans test their
skills, solo or with friends, in nonstop competition and
exploration. From coast to coast, drivers will explore America and
compete to become the greatest motorsports champion 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 will be given a broad set of options among a wide
selection of vehicle types.
