'The Crew Motorfest' Season 3 Launches, First Free Weekend Begins Tomorrow

by Rainier on March 13, 2024 @ 1:35 p.m. PDT

The Crew Motorfest enters a new era in the franchise, allowing car lovers to fulfill their ultimate action driving bucket list through a series of tailor-made races, themed events and other unique challenges.

Welcome to Motorfest! This one-of-a-kind festival will let players enjoy the best experiences car culture has to offer. Whichever way players enjoy cars and driving, there is something in there for them.

The Crew Motorfest has settled down in one of the most breathtaking and vibrant places on Earth: the island of O‘ahu in the Hawaiian archipelago. This is the perfect playground to let players have fun together with their vehicles: racing through the city streets of Honolulu, going down the ashy volcano slopes, adventuring deep in the lush rainforest, drifting along the curvy mountain roads or just chilling down on the sunny beach. On their own or with their crew, they will be able to explore the entire island behind the wheel of hundreds of the most legendary vehicles.

At the heart of the Motorfest experience, players will discover the Playlists: a selection of themed campaigns offering unique and exciting car culture experiences. Each Playlist is carefully designed to immerse players in a different car culture universe through a series of tailored races, themed events and challenges. Conquer the wild world of American Muscle cars; leave your mark in a Japan-inspired night racing scene; or prove you can win a competition without GPS and assisted driving at the wheel of legendary classics of the past. More than a dozen Playlists will be available at launch, with other themes going from mastering cutting-edge electric supercars – a brand-new vehicle category - to exploring the universes of the most prestigious car brands and creators.

With more than 610 vehicles at launch, players will get to choose and customize their rides from one of the most diverse line-ups of models ever, from both the past and the future! Among these is the Lamborghini Revuelto, the first V12 hybrid plug-in super sports car of the Italian brand and revealed today to be The Crew Motorfest’s Cover Car. Players will soon be able to enjoy the thrill of driving this hybrid super sports car at full speed under the Hawaiian skies.


Ubisoft announced that The Crew Motorfest’s Season 3 is now available as a free update, introducing the most memorable car culture content from the Golden Age of Hollywood to nowadays’ car enthusiasts.

To celebrate the release of Season 3, the first-ever Free Weekend of The Crew Motorfest will be organized from March 14 (6PM UTC) to March 18 (12PM UTC) for all PlayStation, Xbox and PC players.
 
The Crew Mortorfest Season 3 offers extensive new content including:

  • A brand-new “Hollywood Action!” Playlist. In the epic recreation of a blockbuster movie set, players will take on the lead role of the upcoming movie “Hi-Ride” and contribute in making the best action-packed production ever. Taking the wheel of some of most iconic cars seen on the silver screen, players will put their driving skills to the test in “Dirty Driving”, destroying as many objects and making the scenes as spectacular as possible, or in “Video Lane” where they will have to stay in the director’s lens while taking on challenging routes. The aspiring movie stars will have to master 9 adrenaline-fueled main events for a chance to unlock the most iconic spy’s ride, the iconic Aston Martin DB5 (1963).
  • The Main Stage will also be taken over by renowned car figures, content creators and professional drivers, who worked closely with Ubisoft Ivory Tower to create an exciting program for players to discover. Festivities will kickstart in April, with “Streamers Dream” featuring content curated by BlackPanthaa and Stereonline, followed up by “Pro Competitors” in May and formula drift champion Chris Forsberg, to “Creators” in June with That Dude In Blue and Shmee150.
