The Crew Motorfest - Xbox Series X|S

The Crew Motorfest is an open-world racing game set on the island of O'ahu in Hawaii. Players participate in a year-round festival that celebrates car culture through themed campaigns called Playlists, which focus on specific brands, racing disciplines, or historical eras. The game features a massive roster of vehicles including cars, planes, and boats, with a physics system that emphasises arcade-style handling and exploration.

The core gameplay loop involves winning races to earn currency and experience, which allows for vehicle customisation and the acquisition of new cars. The tropical setting provides a diverse backdrop ranging from city streets to rainforests and volcanic slopes. The tone is upbeat and social, encouraging players to join crews and compete in live summits or grand races against dozens of other drivers.

This game does not run locally on macOS due to anti-cheat restrictions. Streaming via Xbox Cloud Gaming is the only way to play on Apple Silicon.
