The Crew Mortorfest Season 3 offers extensive new content including:
A brand-new “Hollywood Action!” Playlist. In the epic recreation of a blockbuster movie set, players will take on the lead role of the upcoming movie “Hi-Ride” and contribute in making the best action-packed production ever. Taking the wheel of some of most iconic cars seen on the silver screen, players will put their driving skills to the test in “Dirty Driving”, destroying as many objects and making the scenes as spectacular as possible, or in “Video Lane” where they will have to stay in the director’s lens while taking on challenging routes. The aspiring movie stars will have to master 9 adrenaline-fueled main events for a chance to unlock the most iconic spy’s ride, the iconic Aston Martin DB5 (1963).
The Main Stage will also be taken over by renowned car figures, content creators and professional drivers, who worked closely with Ubisoft Ivory Tower to create an exciting program for players to discover. Festivities will kickstart in April, with “Streamers Dream” featuring content curated by BlackPanthaa and Stereonline, followed up by “Pro Competitors” in May and formula drift champion Chris Forsberg, to “Creators” in June with That Dude In Blue and Shmee150.
