What is new in the Crew 2 update 1.17?
The action takes place across 8 PvE events, split between the Street Race and Hypercar disciplines. Five events will be available at launch, followed by one new event every two weeks.
You can access the events via a dedicated tab in the Activities menu, or directly in the Street Race and Hypercar categories.
NEW VEHICLES & VANITY TYPE
The Seasonal theme doesn’t stop at events! Interception drivers need Interception Unit cars, and we happen to have a few packed into our customary line-up of brand-new Shop additions.
Available right off the bat on November 25, the Lamborghini Veneno Coupé Interception Unit (2020) is Vault Corp’s answer to the Hypercar discipline.
As announced at Ubisoft Forward, every Motorflix Season will bring a new theme and gameplay experience. For Season 1, the setting is a fictional series where a mysterious outlaw group foolishly decides to steal from private bank Vault Corp.
In Episode 1: The Chase, the outlaws must be stopped by Vault Corp’s elite Interception Unit before they escape the city – with players in the starring role of lead Interception driver!
The Motorpass is an optional multi-tiered reward system, that players can progress through by completing Daily and Seasonal Challenges. There are 50 tiers in total, which offer both Free and Premium Rewards, and we’ll be running a new Motorpass for every Episode.
The competitors among you will be thrilled to hear that our latest batch of LIVE Summits is raring to go. We have a variety of themes lined up, from Vault Security to seasonal holidays, via more classic brand-focused Summits.
