Switch 2 ports of titles that have already been successful on other platforms have definitely been coming a cool trend lately. The Crew Motorfest is the latest, and it’s coming to the Nintendo console as early as tomorrow. Because we were sent a code today, it gives us a chance to take a quick look around the brand-new island included for free with the first part of the Year 4 content, which launched today. A quick note about this version, which has a frame rate capped at 30 fps—stable when docked, but apparently a bit less so in handheld mode, especially during the day. On the other hand, in this second configuration, the game looks truly stunning—much less blurry than on a 4K TV—and is beautifully showcased on the console’s screen. The only real downside is the lack of analog triggers in a racing game as driving lacks precision, even though it is designed to be very arcadey. That’s no reason to let it spoil your fun when playing exclusively on Switch 2, or if you want to continue your game anywhere in handheld mode when you already own another version of the game (with your Ubisoft account, this is possible—but be careful, because content purchased on one version isn’t available on the other).
