Get ready, racing enthusiasts! The highly anticipated The Crew Motorfest has finally arrived on Xbox Game Pass, and it's a game-changer for Xbox and PC gamers alike. But here's the real kicker: it's dropped just in time for the start of Season 8, marking the third year of this open-world racing extravaganza.
Season 8 is a game-changer in itself, offering an array of new cars to get your adrenaline pumping. Imagine cruising in the sleek Zenvo Aurora Agil, or revving up the classic 2004 Ford Shelby GR-1 Concept. And that's not all; the BMW M2 CS (G87) is also making its debut, adding to the diverse fleet of vehicles.
But here's where it gets controversial... The ability to adjust a vehicle's stance, a long-requested feature, has finally been introduced. This, along with new playlists and customization options, including licensed wheels like HRE Performance Wheels, gives players an unprecedented level of freedom to personalize their rides.
And this is the part most people miss: The Crew Motorfest is not just about the cars; it's about the experience. Season 9, kicking off in March 2026, promises to deliver an even more immersive journey with the addition of NASCAR, radio-controlled cars, and a new island. Not to mention, TrackForge, Motorfest's answer to Forza Horizon 5's EventLab, will allow players to create and share their own tracks, taking the racing experience to a whole new level.
Speaking of surprises, the Ferrari F80 made its video game debut in July, and the Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo followed suit in August, adding an extra layer of excitement to the game.
However, it's not all smooth sailing. The recent increase in Game Pass prices for the PC and Ultimate tiers might be a bitter pill to swallow for some. But, if you've been on the fence about The Crew Motorfest, now is the perfect time to take the plunge and join the racing revolution.
So, are you ready to hit the gas and explore the vast open world of The Crew Motorfest? The choice is yours, and the road is calling!
