E3 2017: Ubisoft Unveils The Crew 2
In 2014 Ubisoft published an open-world racer known as The Crew. Three years later, it’s back…and this time more than just sports cars are involved! Airplanes, helicopters, motorbikes, and even boats can be competitively raced and the wilder the tricks you pull off, the higher you can advance. If you can drive it, you can race with it. It’s Diddy Kong Racing with a vengeance!
FEATURES: WELCOME TO MOTORNATION – TAKE THE CHALLENGE TO THE GROUND, SEA, AND SKY Push boundaries and take on new experiences in iconic locations. Fly and spin through fog and clouds above the snowcapped Rocky Mountains, burn rubber in the backstreets of New York City, sweep through the Mississippi River, and explore every inch of the Grand Canyon. Driving your dream hypercar, riding some of the most iconic American bikes, and taking control of the swiftest aerobatic planes and powerboats: opportunities for fun and challenges are limitless in a fully redesigned USA.
BE THE CHAMPION YOU WANT TO BE Join four different motorsports families from around the country: street and pro racers, off-road experts, and freestylers. They’ll hook you up with new rides, and they’ll introduce you to their own unique motorsports culture and set of disciplines. Through competitions and chance encounters, find and hone your personal style, collect and customize your dream rides, show them off in your HQ, and make your mark on the entire US motorsports scene.
SHARE AND SHINE IN A CONNECTED WORLD The world of The Crew® 2 is fueled by the need to share your personal accomplishments and unique moments with friends and others – break records and be a pioneer! Every time you achieve something, it will be saved as a new challenge for other players, while you will be encouraged to surpass the feats of others. Capture and share all of your best moments with the press of a button.
Ubisoft showed off two separate The Crew 2 videos today during their E3 conference: the announcement trailer and a video full of gameplay footage. The tracks shown feature locations from all around the country, from San Francisco to New York City.
The Crew 2 will be released in early 2018 for Playstation 4, XBox One and PC.
