The Crew Launches This Fall

Ubisoft has confirmed the launch window, microtransactions and 1080p/30 fps for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 for The Crew.

Ubisoft's racing game The Crew microtransaction system will allow players to buy new performance parts with real money. These items can of course be unlocked through progression, with Ubisoft saying that these paid performance parts are aimed at players who might not have as much time to spend in-game.

"We can confirm that performance parts can be unlocked through progression as well as microtransactions," a Ubisoft representative said. "All content can be unlocked through progression, but for busy gamers who want to save some time, they will have the opportunity to buy some items in-game."

The Crew will not be the first game to support microtransaction as Sony's Gran Turismo 6 for PlayStation 3, and Microsoft's Xbox One racing game Forza Motorsport 5 also support microtransactions.

Creative director Julian Gerighty also revealed that the game will run at native 1080p at 30fps for Xbox One and PS4.

The game can be pre-ordered today for Xbox One and PS4 in two versions : the Limited Edition and the Muscle Edition. The Limited Edition will include early access to cars like the BMW Z4 sDrive35is, Mini Cooper S, and Dodge Ram SRT-10. While the Muscle Edition will include everything from the Limited Edition, as well as early access to the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Both versions include 10,000 bonus "Crew Credits."

The standard edition of The Crew will sell for $60, but Ubisoft did not reveal how much the Limited Edition or Muscle Edition will cost.
