We can confirm an offline mode to ensure long term access to both titles, stay tuned for more news in the next months."The Crew 2 being shut down seemed a much more likely prospect beforehand, as it launched in 2018 and is therefore six years old. The Crew Motorfest arriving in 2023 also adds to its obscurity.In our 7/10 review of that game, IGN said: "The Crew Motorfest is a robust racer with a confident sense of style, but its smaller map lacks life, its multiplayer isn't really worth the wait, and its omnipresent microtransaction opportunities are still tedious."Ryan Dinsdale is an IGN freelance reporter.
