Believe me, I’m as shocked as you are to be talking about a game that is now two years old. Buried beneath news stories of bashing the fash in London and watching Genie Carl Capuccino from Broken Sad teach his son how to hold a grenade, some tasty new content for The Crew 2 was announced.
The first big update for The Crew 2, Gator Rush takes the open world racing title down to the swamps and throws in a brand new discipline to master: Hovercrafts!
Hey, you seem to be lacking in gaming memorabilia swag. Well with a little bit of luck and some bribery, you could actually end this week with some neat prizes that all bear the logo of Ubisoft’s latest open-world game, The Crew 2!
Right, so The Crew 2 is out and while I have some reservations about the game, I’m curious to see exactly how it grows in the future. Pretty much every Ubisoft game a year after launch has proven to be a huge winner, and The Crew 2 is no exception. That’s an investment on your part that the game requires, an investment that could cost you absolutely nothing. Why? Because thanks to our fab friends over at Megarom Interactive, we’ve got a snazzy hamper to give away for The Crew 2.
No matter the element, The Crew 2 is a fantastic vehicle in which to master the ins and outs of speed. It’s just a pity that Ubisoft’s new world of varied racing disciplines feels hollow and uneven as it won’t hold your attention for very long.
There’s a lot that The Crew 2 gets right, but also a lot that it hides from players. Here are a few tips and tricks to help get you started on your trek across America's land, sea and air.
Ubisoft is going all-in on games as a service and The Crew 2 won’t be an exception to that rule. As usual, you can expect a season pass offering as well as quartely content updates for free.
I genuinely believe that The Crew 2 will live up to the first game’s ambitious promise. Even better, it lets you switch between land, air and water-based vehicles on the fly. I had a surprising amount of fun with it when I played it at Gamescom last year. Don’t take my word for it though, try it yourself. We’ve got some beta keys for any of the 3 available platforms for you to play on. Want a code? It’s easy!
Every archive has that one photograph that stops you mid-scroll: a crowded market square …
