'The Crew 2' Season 7 Episode 1: Into the Storm Begins Tomorrow - Trailer

by Rainier on Nov. 15, 2022 @ 1:25 p.m. PST

The open-world racing game returns in The Crew 2, letting players experience the thrill of the American motorsports spirit inside a fully redesigned USA.

Welcome to Motornation, one of the most exhilarating open worlds ever created. The Crew 2’s playground pushes physical boundaries to let driving and open-world fans test their skills, solo or with friends, in non-stop competition and exploration, featuring a variety of cars, bikes, boats and planes, and become the greatest motorsports champion.

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 such as street racing, powerboat racing, aerobatics, jetsprint and rally raid.

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 Season 7 Episode 1: Into the Storm, the latest free update, will be available tomorrow on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS4, PS5, as well as PC through the Ubisoft Store, Epic Games Store and Steam. Players can also subscribe to Ubisoft+ on PC and Amazon Luna.

In the first Episode of Season 7, Motorflix, the in-game car entertainment provider, has produced its biggest show to date. In this brand-new series, players will participate in a thrilling underground race traveling from one coast of the U.S. to the other. Throughout the race, five unpredictable events will test their driving skills, from collapsing buildings and police roadblocks to a massive sandstorm, all available at launch. By completing the full series, players will unlock an exclusive reward: the Mitsubishi 300 GT VR-R No Rules Edition.

Season 7 also comes with numerous Quality of Life improvements for all players. Taking player feedback into account, a new Performance Mode option (1440p at 60FPS) will now be available on PS5 and Xbox Series X, along with the Performance mode featuring 60fps support available now on Xbox Series S, and visual improvements and bug fixes on all platforms. The complete list of modifications is available on The Crew 2’s website.

Finally, the LIVE Summit experience also continues during Season 7 with a new weekly challenge. During LIVE Summits, there is only one goal: getting as high up on the leaderboard as possible. Each week, the best players will be rewarded with exclusive items and vehicles based on their ranking.

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.

Across the country, players will meet four different motorsports families: street racers, pro racers, off-road experts and freestylers, each with their own culture and set of disciplines. Each family has a unique HQ, where players can meet, buy, collect and customize vehicles. Through competitions and chance encounters, players will find and hone their personal style, collect and customize dream rides, show them off and make their mark on the US motorsports scene.

The Crew 2 is currently available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, PC (Epic Games Store and Ubisoft Store), Stadia and Ubisoft’s subscription service, Ubisoft+*.
