MAN: Oh.
Ha-ha.
Ooh.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
It's called "The Crew 2 Demolition Derby."
[MUSIC PLAYING]
MAN: Ooh.
CLAIRE GARIN: As you might have guessed,
it holds a very unique and new gameplay and discipline,
the Demolition Derby.
So basically, the goal is to crush everybody and everything.
How exactly do you win one of those matches?
By crashing into each other the right way.
It depends on whether you're active or passive
during the crashing.
Like, you really want to bump into your opponents
and destroy their parts.
But also, you want to be able to avoid the crash when
you feel like you're really in bad shape.
Yeah.
There were definitely moments where
I was driving with no front tires,
and things get pretty dicey.
MAN: I have no tire.
YOUSSEF MAQUID: Some of the maps do
have sort of environmental hazards and obstacles.
What kind of things do those bring to the table?
CLAIRE GARIN: You have traps like elevators, water pools,
which are deadly to cars, obviously.
MAN: Nope.
Nope.
Aw.
And you have like gigantic boxing gloves
that will hit your car.
And so-- yeah.
You also have ramps.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[LAUGHTER]
What kind of bonuses can you pick up?
CLAIRE GARIN: Yeah.
So you can get repair bonuses.
So in case you're really in bad shape,
you want to hit those ones.
And you get extra damage bonus.
So that's basically the opposite.
You give more damage to your opponents.
MAN: Ooh.
Oh.
YOUSSEF MAQUID: Demolition Derby, as a discipline,
isn't the only new thing coming with this update, right?
What else is being included?
So it includes new vehicles.
So in addition to the Demolition Derby cars,
including a new single-seater car
from Red Bull, which is one that the players really like.
We're going to have the Bugatti Chiron.
So we're pretty happy to have this one to the lineup.
Yeah.
YOUSSEF MAQUID: Yeah.
Speaking of Bugatti, we got a chance
to try out the hybrid cars in PvP mode, right?
[LAUGHTER]
Tell us a bit about this.
CLAIRE GARIN: PvP is not only about getting the best car.
It's also and mostly about your skills.
We designed the PvP to be a really easy to pick up
and inclusive experience.
That's why, basically everybody can enter.
You can enter PvP as soon as rookie level.
You can even access the hypercar discipline
even though you don't have the right level
to access skills in PvE.
The game actually lends you a car.
And in order to make it fair, all the cars are maxed up.
So this is really about true skills.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
YOUSSEF MAQUID: So players have already
been able to crew up with their friends for co-op PvE.
But how does PvP differ from that?
CLAIRE GARIN: OK.
So PvE is about-- yeah, like you said, cooperation.
You team up with your friends.
It only needs one of you to win in order for the three others
to loot as well.
So yeah.
The challenge is not the same.
You really play together, even though, you know, you'll
look at the leaderboard.
But PvP is really every man for himself.
Everyone is really here for the first place.
MAN: Aw.
Come on.
CLAIRE GARIN: I really love the last shot
you get when you win or not.
It's particularly fun in Demolition Derby
when you have your car smoking and--
YOUSSEF MAQUID: Oh yeah.
CLAIRE GARIN: --all those crash [INAUDIBLE]..
But you still win.
So.
YOUSSEF MAQUID: So Demolition Derby
is also bringing a few new events into the fold
as well, right?
CLAIRE GARIN: Yes, definitely.
And starting with a new "Live Xtrem" series episode.
And this one is a holiday special, because, you know,
December.
But we're also bringing 10 new events
in drifts, a rally cross, and [INAUDIBLE] disciplines, as
well as new skills and a daily contract
that will encourage players to go back to the game,
explore the map every day.
YOUSSEF MAQUID: When can players pick up the Demolition Derby
update?
Well, it's going to be out on December 5th.
And it's completely free for all of our players.
So be there.
MAN: Whoa.
