Perhaps still stinging from the unexpectedly ferocious reaction to its decision to bring The Crew to a sudden, unwanted stop, Ubisoft announced today that offline modes are being developed for The Crew 2 and The Crew Motorfest.
This decision will probably surprise many who enjoyed The Crew 2 and The Crew Motorfest, especially since Ubisoft shut down the servers earlier this year. In addition to the controversial move to close down the servers, they then began revoking the licenses to the games, and they delisted The Crew from digital storefronts last December.

Ubisoft’s share price plunged again on Monday after a minority investor called on management to take the company private or let it be sold to a strategic investor.
may have surprised some players upon its launch when the open-world scoundrel fantasy turned out to be a lot more stealth-focused than they may have expected. Considering Kay Vess' past as a thief and the fact that the whole game seems to be building up to a major heist, the idea that she might have to spend a fair amount of time sneaking around places isn't exactly out of place, but some compulsory stealth sections have been the source of some controversy from some players.
