Season 11 adds free island and expedition-themed playlist
20 new cars include Bugatti Tourbillon
Paid Tomb Raider-themed DLC expansion includes new island, five vehicles and playlist events
Switch 2 version set to release on 8th October
Season 11 of The Crew Motorfest launches today, bringing with it 20 new cars, another free island and an off-road expedition-themed playlist. It marks the start of the open-world racer’s fourth year of live service updates. Four seasons are planned in Year 4, with one launching every three months.
Free Kaua’i island
Season 11 sees Hawaii expand with another free island. Set in Kaua’i, north of the main Hawaii island, it features 95 km (59 miles) of asphalt and 105 km (65) of off-road terrain to explore. With a mix of swamps, canyons and forests, it’s around the same size of the Maui island.
It’s also the location for the new Kaua’i Expeditions playlist. Across ten events, the expedition-themed playlist sees players navigate the environment with a compass instead of GPS, using a newly added winch tool to clear obstacles such as fallen trees or deliver cargo.
There are also additional photo challenges requiring you to spot and photograph 40 wildlife species inhabiting the islands.
Completing the playlist unlocks the Suzuki Jimny off-roader.
Continuing the off-road theme, 200 new elements including rocks and mud are being added to TrackForge (The Crew Motorfest’s track creator), allowing players to create dirt track courses.
20 new cars
Season 11 also adds new 20 new cars to the roster over the next few months, headlined by the PC and console racing game debut of the Bugatti Tourbillon.
A successor to the Chiron, it produces 1,775 hp from a 8.3-litre, naturally aspirated V16 paired with three electric motors. It can be purchased in the in-game shop from 14th October or driven in a special Proving Laps event, where you can win up to 500 Prestige Tickets.
From 7th October, the Hyundai Crater Concept will be available to purchase in the shop. On 21st October, Hennessey’s modified Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, better known as The Exorcist, will be added to the shop along with the off-road-focused Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato. The Exorcist can also be won in The Summit.
Several vehicles also join the newly launched Year 4 Pass, including the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing, Pininfarina Battista and Italdesign Zerouno. Priced at £24.99 / $29.99 / €29.99, the Year 4 Pass will include 21 vehicles, with four each season.
