The Crew Motorfest on PS5 promises a vibrant open-world racing experience, boasting a diverse car roster and a plethora of racing challenges. Having spent considerable time behind the virtual wheel, I’m ready to share my thoughts on Ubisoft’s latest offering. This review focuses on the PS5 version, model number 3307216270072.

The game shines with its extensive car collection, ranging from classic muscle cars to modern hypercars. The customization options are equally impressive, allowing for a high degree of personalization. The handling model feels responsive, though perhaps a bit arcadey for hardcore sim racers. The campaign structure, based around themed playlists, keeps things interesting and provides a sense of progression. Exploring the Hawaiian-inspired island setting is a joy, with varied terrains and stunning visuals.

The multiplayer aspect is a significant draw, allowing for both competitive and cooperative gameplay. The ability to easily join friends for races or simply cruise around the island adds to the overall experience. However, some online features felt a bit under-developed compared to the single-player portion.

On the PS5, The Crew Motorfest generally runs smoothly with minimal frame rate drops. The graphics are sharp and detailed, especially with ray tracing enabled. Loading times are relatively short, which minimizes downtime between races and events. However, I did experience some minor texture pop-in in certain areas, and the game’s open world can be demanding, occasionally resulting in slightly reduced frame rates in densely populated areas.

The audio design is another strong point, with realistic engine sounds and a well-chosen soundtrack that enhances the atmosphere.

Pros:

• Extensive car collection and customization options
• Stunning graphics and world design
• Engaging campaign structure and multiplayer modes
• Generally smooth performance on PS5
• Great audio design

Cons:

• Minor texture pop-in issues
• Occasional frame rate dips in busy areas
• Some online features feel under-developed
• Handling model might be too arcadey for sim racing purists

Overall, The Crew Motorfest on PS5 (3307216270072) delivers a fun and engaging racing experience. While it’s not perfect, the game’s strengths outweigh its weaknesses. The vast car selection, stunning visuals, and enjoyable gameplay loop make it a worthwhile purchase for racing fans. If you’re looking for a visually impressive racing game with a strong emphasis on car culture and a vibrant open world, I highly recommend giving The Crew Motorfest a try.
