Playable multiplayer mode at Sim Racing Expo in Dortmund, Germany, from October 17 – 19

Published by GIANTS Software and developed by Straight4 Studios, Project Motor Racing arrives at Sim Racing Expo today with major new additions: Playable in multiplayer, new classes, 7 cars, the legendary Daytona road course, and the public debut of the studio’s True2Track dynamic-surface system.

Classes & Cars

Joining the previously announced LMDh, GT3, GT4, MX-5 Trophy, GT, LMP, Group C, Sports Car ’70, N-GT, and GT1, PMR adds IMSA GTO with the following confirmed cars:

• Roush Mercury Cougar XR-7
• Chevrolet Camaro Z28 IMSA GTO
• Audi 90 quattro IMSA GTO
• Mazda RX-7

Also joining PMR is the 964 Trophy class, featuring the original Porsche Supercup car, the 1990 Porsche Carrera Cup (964). In LMDh and prototype eras, new cars include:

• 2023 Toyota GR010 Hybrid (LMDh)

Dynamic Tracks and Daytona International Speedway (Road Course)

The new trailer showcases True2Track, PMR’s primarily GPU-driven surface model that evolves lap-by-lap:

• Weather & time: full day–night transitions, realistic puddle formation, drainage, and drying lines.
• Grip evolution: rubber builds on the racing line; overheated lines can go slick in high temps.
• Marbles: tyres shed under load; off-line pickup and reduced grip make overtakes authentic.
• Performance: primarily GPU-accelerated to minimize CPU impact and reduce load times.

Once in power, you’ll decide what it truly means to be Roman — and the cost of peace is yours to decide. 
• Or follow the path of Marcia, whose mysterious rise to power defies the norms of a male-dominated empire. Seize this rare opportunity to stand out and lead with conviction. As Governor, your decisions will shape the lives of your citizens and redefine the essence of Roman rule. 

YEAR 1 PASS CONTENT

The Year 1 Pass is included in the Gold Edition, or available as a separate purchase.

As a ruling governor of the great Roman Empire, the players’ choices will matter every step of the way … and never without consequences.

Ubisoft Reveals the Future of The Crew™ Motorfest during Showcase 2025. Season 8 kicks off Year 3 with underground crew, a tribute to BMW’s legacy, Steam Deck verification, and community-driven upgrades.

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA – 17 October 2025 — During The Crew Showcase 2025, Ubisoft unveiled thrilling new content coming to The Crew™ Motorfest. The team at Ubisoft Ivory Tower presented a detailed look at what’s ahead for Year 3, kicking off on 5 November with the launch of Season 8. This new chapter promises to be one of the boldest yet, featuring three brand-new seasons, high-profile collaborations, community-focused upgrades, and an all-new Year 3 Pass.

Before diving into Motorfest’s future, Ubisoft reaffirmed its commitment to The Crew 2. Thanks to player feedback, a new hybrid mode allowing both online and offline play is now available. This marks a major milestone in ensuring the game’s longevity, keeping it accessible for years to come.

On 5 November Season 8 launches Year 3 with a deep dive into the roots of the world of street racing. The new “Street Riders” playlist introduces an immersive experience where players join a secret crew known as “Monkeys’ Kitchen”, an artistic and motorised collective that turns city streets into performance stages. Players can expect free races with no set routes, and fully customised rides but also the addition of the Stance customisation and the arrival of more than 40 fully customisable new branded rims.

The Crew Motorfest is also expanding its partnership with BMW for Season 8. A dedicated playlist will explore the brand’s legacy, from iconic classics to cutting-edge innovations, including the brand-new BMW M2 CS, available in exclusivity. Players will get behind the wheel of a wide range of BMW vehicles, both on the road and the track, and dive into the brand’s DNA through exclusive events.

Another big news for PC players: The Crew Motorfest is now available on Steam Deck, and fully verified, allowing fans to take the Motorfest experience wherever they go.

Year 3 will also introduce deeper customisation options. Players will now be able to modify wheel rims with a variety of materials colours and equip authentic branded models. Vehicle stance will be fully customisable, a feature long requested by the community. A new progression and ranking system will enhance The Grand Race, offering a fresh competitive experience. These additions mark a new era for The Crew Motorfest, where every detail matters and personal expression becomes a driving force.

To celebrate the launch of Year 3, all players will receive a free car if they log in within three days of the showcase. Plus, the new Friend Pass will allow The Crew Motorfest owners to invite up to three friends to play for free in Crew mode with no time limit.

The Year 3 Pass will include 21 new vehicles, with four available on day one and 165 released in monthly drops. Players who already own the Year 1 or Year 2 Passes will receive an exclusive bonus hypercar: the “Cadillac CIEL Concept, 2011”.

Starting in March, Season 9 will be the biggest ever deployed for the franchise featuring a collaboration with NASCAR, the launch of the Track Forge, a powerful tool to create, share and play your own tracks but also the introduction of remote-controlled cars letting players rediscover the world in free roam but also during amazing events. Year 3 promises a wild variety of content and fresh experiences, always driven by the passion of the community and the creativity of the studio teams.

The Crew Motorfest is available on Ubisoft+, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, as well as PC through the Ubisoft Store, Epic Games Store, and Steam (also compatible and verified on Steam Deck on 5 November).
