Tear down streets avoiding obstacles and get to your destination before the opposition to win.

There are a total of four different hub-worlds, in which the racing style varies and with a different opponent/ mentor for each style. You could be blasting across the Nevada desert and decide you need a change, and within a fraction of a second, be blasting across a lake on a motorboat or soaring into the sky in a small plane. One exceptionally cool feature is that you can change your vehicle right in the middle of the action, at the touch of a button. The game is especially good when you can just aimlessly tool around the countryside, exploring the famous landmarks and seeing just how fast you can get your vehicle to go. Needless to say, follower counts spike when you actually come first in the races and events like performing stunts and similar activities. The goal is to earn followers on social media: this is how a player ‘wins’ in the game. Each different vehicle type has different engineering, so the physics engines behave uniquely according to each vehicle’s design: allowing players to make fairly large changes to the end result, simply by changing the vehicle being used. The game’s setting covers only those states that are found on mainland USA, so Alaska and Hawaii are not included this time.

The game is the sequel to the first in the series: The Crew, released in 2014. Players have their choice of planes, hovercraft, boats, motorcycles and, of course, cars – including monster trucks. The Crew 2 for PC is an open world racing game in which the player must range freely, exploring and racing, over a perpetual world loosely based on continental North America.
