Exploring Maui: The Newest Gem in Motorfest
The Crew Motorfest is reaching new levels with the addition of a brand-new island free for all players, Maui! Famous for its breathtaking landscapes and perfectly designed for exciting adventures, Maui brings even more opportunities for exploration, fun and competition, to the game. You will also be able to discover numerous technical improvements brought to our world.
Here's everything you need to know about this exciting island expansion to Motorfest!
[h2]Welcome to Maui! [/h2]
Adding an island was a challenge that our teams loved to tackle, but one of the challenges was access to it. After studying several solutions, we decided to connect O’ahu and Maui with a network of bridges.
This network of bridges and its surrounding area offer a seamless transition to Maui, without any loading time. this area has also been built not only as a connection between island but as a full playground and an important landmark for other activities such as grand race, feats and more!
Maui brings the ultimate tropical island experience to life, giving players access to one of the most beautiful areas in Motorfest. The island’s stunning landscapes include lush rainforests, curvy mountain roads, volcanic cliffs, red sand beaches, teeming cities and more!
One highlight is the Bamboo Forest, a peaceful yet mysterious area where sunlight streams through tall bamboo, creating an unmissable and immersive driving experience. Players can also race on the famous Road to Hana, a winding route with tight turns, cliffs, and waterfalls. But players will have to be careful, this road illustrates perfectly the new type of road layout we have implemented on Maui with new banking and curves that will put your driving skills to the test.
At the centre of the island players will find Haleakala, a massive caldera featuring steep slopes and old lava flows. Racing around it offers some of the most exciting and intense moments that players will experience at Motorfest
These new environments are only 3 of the 9 new main areas you will have the opportunity to explore at launch on November 6th, so be sure to book your ticket!
"Maui stands out for the richness and diversity of its biomes. The island is home to a semi-extinct volcano, offering an opportunity to play with the theme of fire. Its smoke, visible from afar, makes it an iconic feature of the island. Maui's main town, Kalui, is distinguished from Honolulu by its lower, more spread-out architecture, with a smaller town centre and picturesque canals. This configuration creates a unique urban environment." Jean Christophe - Associate Art Director
[h2]New Tech: Plume & Road Banking [/h2]
With the addition of Maui into Motorfest, we also are introducing new tech features dedicated to enhancing players’ gameplay experience. One of these is the plume system, which makes smoke, dust, and debris react more realistically to vehicles, especially in off-road when each particle is interacts with the players and its vehicles.
Even with over 470 KM of drivable roads, we didn’t just want to add new routes to our world but also new ways to make them your own. One of the key features of Maui is the new road banking system, which gives roads more realistic curves and elevation changes. This makes races feel smoother and more exciting, especially when drifting through tight corners on Maui’s winding roads. This new tech adds more strategy and intensity to every race.
[h2]An Evolving Island [/h2]
Maui is more than just a static map, it’s part of an evolving open world composed of to amazing islands that will continue to grow and change as The Crew Motorfest pushes forward and continues to welcome more guests and content. We already hinted that Season 6 is in the works, and it certainly is, so you can expect new challenges, vehicles, and activities to All along year 2!
[h2]A Must-Visit Destination for Festival-goers! [/h2]
The introduction of Maui to The Crew Motorfest is a game-changer, offering players a rich new environment to explore, race, and conquer. With its diverse landscapes, cutting-edge tech enhancements like plume systems and road banking, and the promise of future content through an evolving map, Maui stands as a must-see destination for any racing fan. Whether you’re here for the scenic views or the thrilling challenges, Maui is the perfect place to continue your Motorfest adventure.
