Ubisoft The Crew Motorfest Year 4 roadmap and Switch 2 port

Overview

Ubisoft has launched the Year 4 roadmap for the racing game The Crew Motorfest, beginning with Season 11 on October 7, 2026.

A primary component of this update is the free Kauai island expansion, which features wilderness, swamps, and canyons designed for off-road exploration. This expansion introduces a winch and towing mechanic to assist vehicles in navigating difficult terrain and includes 21 new vehicles, along with photography and ‘Road Discovery’ tasks that reward exploration.

Alongside the seasonal update, Ubisoft released a paid Tomb Raider crossover titled ‘Secrets of Ni’ihau,’ developed in collaboration with Crystal Dynamics. This premium DLC features Lara Croft and allows players to explore jungle environments and ancient ruins. The expansion includes the Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG 6×6 and is available via the Year 4 Pass.

On October 8, 2026, the game was released for the Nintendo Switch 2. The port includes optimized performance and content from Season 11, though technical observations note a frame rate limited to 30 FPS and the requirement for a permanent internet connection.

Looking toward future content, Ubisoft has teased Season 12, which will focus on Asian vehicles, and Season 13, which will center on service vehicles.
