New modes and autos are coming to The Crew 2 in free updates, Ubisoft mentioned right now. With the drive-o-fly-a-sail racer launching later this month, they’ve began gabbing extra about their plans for what comes after. Beyond the compulsory paid season go gubbins, no less than a yr of standard free content material updates will convey goodies from hovercraft races to a great deal of new autos. Generally I’m up for something that may let me race hovercrafts by way of visitors on snowy roads like some Appalachian ruffian.
Ubisoft plan so as to add two new autos each month, and launch greater updates each three months. The month-to-month car drops are simply car drops, whereas the trimonthly updates will convey a brand new racing self-discipline together with new options.
The first content material replace, named Gator Rush, will add hovercraft races on a wide range of surfaces. It’ll additionally bop in a brand new high tier of rarity for car components, although stuff you’ll most likely must grind to get isn’t almost as thrilling as hooning round on hovercraft.
The second content material replace, scheduled to launch in December, will embrace “a brand new PvP mode”. Beyond that, Ubisoft aren’t saying a lot. Stuff. Races and racebits.
The indisputable fact that Ubisoft speak about this preliminary plan as “Year 1” suggests they’ll seemingly hold this up if the sport does properly, as they’ve with Rainbow Six Siege’s years of content material updates.
As for the season go, it’ll give early entry to these month-to-month new autos, a particular house, and different bits and items detailed over here. I can’t think about ever shopping for one in all Ubisoft’s season passes myself, however I like that they do now have free content material updates accompanying them. The years of full-price video games promoting new stuff in playerbase-splitting DLC have been horrible (although some publishers nonetheless consider that’s by some means acceptable?).
The Crew 2 is coming to Steam and Uplay on June 29th. It will price £50/€60/$60, although I’m instructed it’s bundled free with flash Nvidia graphics cards.
