The Crew Motorfest Season 3 Patch Notes: Hollywood comes to Hawaii

The Crew Motorfest Season 3 starts today, bringing with it a slew of new cars to drive and a new Hollywood-inspired playlist full of action-packed events.

Beyond the new content, the latest patch update introduces a host of new quality-of-life updates, as detailed in the Season 3 patch notes.

Welcome to Hollywood

Going live on all platforms today, The Crew Motorfest Season 3 celebrates the most famous cars on the silver screen. Across nine action-packed events, a new Hollywood Action! Playlist sees you performing high-octane vehicular stunts for a movie being filmed in Hawaii, from massive jumps to smashing into objects. Completing the playlist rewards you with the world-famous 1963 Aston Martin DB5 driven by James Bond.

This is one of a whopping 47 new cars coming to The Crew Motorfest in Season 3, with a mix of new and returning cars from The Crew 2. Among the highlights are the classic 1968 Mini Cooper S from The Italian Job and the sleek 2022 Aston Martin DBS.

Throughout Season 3, the Main Stage will be taken over by content creators, car culture influencers, and professional drivers, including Blackpanthaa, Shmee150 and Formula Drift champion Chris Forsberg. 

If you haven’t entered the Motorfest yet, Ubisoft is hosting a free weekend for all players on every platform from 14-17 March. Progress from the free weekend can be transferred to the full game, which will be discounted at 50% offuntil the end of March.

Quality of life improvements

Alongside the new content, Season 3 also introduces several fan-requested quality-of-life improvements. Multiple car parts can now be scrapped at the same time instead of individually, and owned cars can now be browsed vertically, making it easier to browse your garage.
