The upcoming update for The Crew Motorfest will bring a lot of new content to the racing game, including a new island for players to explore as well as a premium PvE experience.
The update comes as the game embarks on Year 2 this November with Season 5 which adds the volcanic paradise of Maui. Additionally, the new season will deliver The Chase Squad, which lets players join the titular squad for high-speed pursuits against rivals.

The game's rendition of Maui will offer players up to more than 100 square kilometers to explore and race through. These range from the streets of Kahului to Haleakala National Park which features bamboo groves, volcanic sands, and the waterfalls of its Ohe'o Gulch Sacred Pools.
The new island will be available for players in The Crew Motorfest when the game's Season 5 launches. Additionally, Maui will be among the settings for the new The Chase Squad where you join a team of elite drivers aiming to shake up conventional ideas about racing, according to Ubisoft.
With The Chase Squad, players will be challenged to track, outsmart, and outmaneuver racing rivals in high-speed nighttime pursuits. The races will be conducted across the islands found within the game.

On top of the new content, more about Made in Japan Volume 2 will be revealed by the developer during The Crew Showcase which is scheduled for September later this year. This would include more details on The Chase Squad and other planned content for the game's Year 2.
The Crew Motorfest is a racing game that is currently available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Amazon Luna, and PC via the Ubisoft Store, Steam, and the Epic Games Store.
A Ton of New Content
The upcoming update adds to the game's Year 1 pass content that included 25 cars, with three at launch and two more coming every month. It also featured access to the new playlists that the developers added in each season, said Insider Gaming.
Ubisoft also announced in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that The Crew Motorfest will be adding the Abarth, Alfa Romeo, and Lancia on June 12, 2024. The studio also confirmed that they will bring "more than 17 new vehicles to the festival."
The social media post also teased the Season 4 Donk vs Lowrider playlist, which is free, and is scheduled to release on July 3, 2024. For players who unfortunately missed the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale (1968) Twitch drop, they should know that it is joining the game's shop on June 13, 2024.
Prior to the latest update, "interceptor" vehicles, while available, were not allowed to chase and apprehend suspects in the streets. It was also confirmed that Season 5 will kick off a second year of season updates for The Crew Motorfest.
Additionally, Season 6 is said to be coming in March 2025, and Season 7 is planned for July 2025 and are both already in development. For now, fans of the franchise will have to wait until September to get more details, according to Traxion.
