Jump In And Head For The Summit! The Crew's massive Wild Run update is coming to consoles and PC today! The complete Wild Run expansion will feature a whole load of new content, while the free update still includes new cars and all the fixes and changes to the game itself. Below we'll walk you through the new features and changes to the game. The Summit Each month there will be a competition between you and all the other players of The Crew, competing for access to exclusive cars, rewards and bragging rights on the leaderboard. You begin by entering qualifiers, there will be 2 qualifiers each week, you must complete these to gain access to The Summit. Once you're in, you advance by completing in missions, PVP events, freeride challenges, skills, and stunts. The Cars Also coming with the Wild Run expansion are a number of new vehicles and new specs such as Monster Trucks, Dragsters, Drift Cars and my personal favourite, Motorcycles! All of the new vehicles can be used in free roam and specific missions, as well as the new events in The Summit. New specs can also be applied to certain cars that are not new to the game, so you can still turn your favourite 370Z into a drift car. New cars: BMW X6 M RUF RT35 Subaru BRZ Mercedes SLR McLaren 722 Aston Martin Vanquish Lotus Exige S TVR Sagaris Mazda RX-7 Bikes: Kawaski Ninja H2 Ducati Monster 1200S KTM 450 EXC Indian Scout Ducati Diavel BMW S1000RR KTM 1290 Super Duke Gameplay On top of the new content, Ivory Tower have made a number of changes and updates to the gameplay. The Crew has underwent a massive graphics overhaul that includes a whole new dynamic weather system! Depending on where you are in The Crew's world, it could rain, it could snow, the roads could be soaking wet, or the fog could be so thick you can't see the car in front of you. Overall the graphics update completely changes the in-game atmosphere and brings The Crew up to new release standards. An additional 3 gameplay modes have also been added to freeride. Co-op Stunts, quick challenges that can be triggered whenever you're in freeride such as drifting, driving a certain distance, jumps, etc. On completion of a stunt, the player earns bucks and then another more difficult stunt is generated for them. The more stunts completed in a single streak the more bucks you can earn. FreeDrive Challenge, a competitive feature played within a crew. One player can create the challenge, setting waypoints and a finish line. At the end of the race, crew members earn rewards based on the number of players and what position they finished in. A new matchmaking system is also included in the update, LFP (Looking For Players). LFP is an automatic matchmaking process that groups players who want to play a specific game mode. Vehicle Handling Ivory Tower have also updated the handling and physics of cars, so far only certain cars and specs have received the handling update, see the list below. This handling update promises to improve aerodynamics, steering reactivity, counter steering, grip behaviour, tuning, and increase the distinctions between handling modes (all driving help/sport/hardcore).

The Special Stage is set! The hotly-anticipated Forza Horizon Rally Pack has finally been detailed, and with it comes a brand new set of rally courses (duh!) and 5 fire-breathing rally legends that should please virtually all Rally fans who remember the best days of the motorsport. On top of this from the info it appears that players will also be able to install the Rally specification kits and equipment to the standard cars of the game to make their own unique Rally monsters and mutants that you would never likely see on an actual rally course, but hey this is the great thing about games, you can make the ridiculous somewhat real. The cars that come with the Pack include legends such as the Lancia 037 Stradale and as can be seen by the image above, the Ford Escort RS Cosworth which appears to have slightly-misjudged an area of the course and ended up mid-air and sideways ...as tends to happen in Rally, as well as the Toyota Celica GT-Four RC ST185. And of course you can't properly talk about Rally cars without mentioning Subaru and Mitsubishi. Luckily both are in via the form of the Impreza WRX STi and the Lancer Evolution VIII MR. The Rally Pack will be out 18th December and will cost 1600MSP or FREE if you have the Season Pass. Check out the full scoop and view more images at IGN. We'll be sure to add more images when they become available. UPDATE: Gallery added. [gallery size=gallery-thumbnail" itemtag="div" icontag="span" link="file" columns="5" exclude="388]
