Ubisoft has announced The Crew Motorfest for release this year
Ubisoft has announced The Crew Motorfest for release in 2023.
Developed by Lyon, France-based Ubisoft Ivory Tower, the game will be available for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC via the Ubisoft Store and Epic Games Store.
“Motorfest will allow car lovers to fulfil their ultimate action driving bucket list through a series of tailor-made races, themed events, and other unique challenges,” according to Ubisoft.
As previously reported, the third entry in the open-world racing series is set on the island of O‘ahu in the Hawaiian archipelago.
“This is the perfect playground for players to have fun together in 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 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.”
This will be familiar to fans of the Test Drive Unlimited games, which many employees of The Crew developer Ivory Tower worked on and were also set in Hawaii.
