Warnings
- This game requires a constant internet connection for all game modes.
The Crew was an online-only racing game developed by Ubisoft Ivory Tower and Ubisoft Reflections and published by Ubisoft. It was the first game in The Crew series.
The Crew was released for Windows on December 2, 2014. The Wild Run expansion was released on November 17, 2015, in an update that also introduced a major graphical overhaul to the game. The Calling All Units expansion was released on November 29, 2016; the Wild Run expansion was delisted and reintegrated into Calling All Units on the same date.
On December 14, 2023, Ubisoft delisted The Crew and its expansions from digital platforms and announced that the servers would be shut down on March 31, 2024. The company did so on that date, rendering the game unplayable. Since then, the company has also removed the game and its associated digital licenses from the accounts that previously owned it, rendering it impossible to even download or launch the game.
General information
- The game is no longer playable after the servers were shut down on March 31, 2024.
