The Crew free trial racing to PS4, Xbox One starting today

Ubisoft’s The Crew was released during a pretty busy time of the year, not to mention within the same window as Forza Horizon 2 and Driveclub, so there’s a good chance that racing game fans kinda missed it.

To help give the game a bit of a boost, Ubi today is launching a trial version of The Crew for the PS4 and Xbox One beginning today. The trial will give players 2 hours of gameplay and those who wish to unlock the full version afterwards can carry over their progress.

For those already playing the game, there’s a new Vintage Car Pack along with a Vintage Live Update with the new PvP Mode to check out.

Read on.

Today, Ubisoft announced that a free trial of the action-driving MMO The Crew is available today on PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system, and will be available March 25 on Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft. New players will be able to hit the road in this free two-hour trial and keep all of their progress should they decide they want to continue by purchasing the game.

For current players, the Vintage Car Pack and Vintage Live Update, including a new PvP mode, are also available. Traverse America in style with the Vintage Car Pack, including the classic sleek-lined Chevrolet Corvette C2, the iconic and powerful Chevrolet Corvette C3 and the lightning-quick Spyker C8 Aileron. The Vintage Car Pack is now available for The Crew Season Pass holders or can be purchased separately.

Four new faction missions themed for speed racers are now available for all players free of charge with the Vintage Live Update. Saddle up for a dirt race through the Wild West, head to the Deep South to join in the Bayou Brawl, enjoy cruising down the historic Route 66 or imagine yourself in Sin City tracking down and smashing a cargo shipment in The Score.

Players can also enjoy the new Blitz Brawl PvP mode where they will hurry from zone to zone and score points alone or as part of a team. Push opponents out of the zone while remaining inside the zone to increase your chances of winning. The Vintage Live Update also comes with new tuning specs to enrich your car collection for six of your favorite cars. Keep it retro with vintage stickers, or refine your car with a brand-new wooden interior.

The 2014 Game Critics Awards Best Racing Game of E3, The Crew takes gamers on a wild ride throughout a massive open world recreation of the United States filled with exciting challenges and populated by other real players.
