The Crew Motorfest screenshots-3

The Crew 2 and The Crew Motorfest will get official Offline Modes


Now here is a pleasant surprise. Earlier this year, Ubisoft was criticized heavily when it shut down the server for The Crew. And today, the French company revealed that it will add official Offline Modes to both The Crew 2 and The Crew Motorfest.

Ubisoft did not reveal when we’ll get this Offline Mode. Still, this is good news for pretty much everyone. After all, you’ll still be able to play both of them even when Ubi shuts down their servers.

Ubisoft is also offering both of these games at great discounts. The Crew Motorfest comes with a 70% discount, whereas The Crew 2 got a 98% discount. This means that you can get it for $1. Now that’s a great deal.

Although I didn’t have a lot of fun with The Crew 2, I really enjoyed The Crew Motorfest. The Crew Motorfest is one of the best Forza Horizon clones. It does not try to reinvent the wheel. Still, it was a fun game.

It’s also worth noting that The Crew Motorfest runs pretty well on PC. The game does not require a high-end CPU, and it has reasonable GPU requirements. Perhaps my biggest gripe with it was its somehow low LOD. Even on Max Settings, there are a lot of pop-in issues. That, and the lack of some PC-only features, like DLSS/FSR and Ray Tracing.

In conclusion, it’s good to see Ubisoft making some consumer-friendly moves. One of the biggest issues gamers have with GaaS titles is the online requirement. So, let’s hope that other devs will follow this example.

Stay tuned for more!
