Ubisoft's latest move could put a smile on your face. In the aftermath of the uproar over the delisting of the original The Crew, Ubisoft is finally introducing The Crew 2 and The Crew Motorfest with an "Offline" mode. While the original game became a ghost, players can expect to see the offline feature rolling out for The Crew 2 soon, with test drives starting next week for PC gamers. No firm note on when The Crew Motorfest joins in, but it's on the way.
The gaming community has already voiced requests for offline modes in other big Ubisoft titles. If you’ve had a look through the YouTube comments under the announcement video above, you’ll see fans petitioning for offline modes for games like Ghost Recon Breakpoint and The Division.
One fan said, "Do the same thing to Ghost Recon Breakpoint, too." This is a clear message from gamers who would rather not experience the same disappearing act that befell The Crew. Whether Ubisoft will answer the call remains an open road, but one thing is for sure gamers are hungry for longevity in their favorite universes.
