Hardware requirements and technical aspects of The Crew 2 The Crew 2 Guide and Walkthrough

Last update: 30 June 2018

Below we have included full hardware requirements (minimum, average and recommended) for the PC version of The Crew 2, tips on improving game performance on some computers, as well as our impressions of the PlayStation 4 version of the game.

Minimum PC hardware requirements for The Crew 2

  1. CPU: Intel Core i5-2400S 3.5 GHz / AMD FX-6100 3.3 GHz
  2. Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 / AMD Radeon HD 7870
  3. RAM: 8 GB
  4. Disk space: about 30 GB
  5. Operating system: 64-bit Windows 7 / 8.1 / 10
  6. Requires an Ubisoft Club account and a permanent Internet connection

The minimum hardware spec will allow you to run the game in 1080p resolution, in low details and maintain 30 frames per second. They are quite modest, in fact. You can successfully run The Crew 2 even on several years old equipment.

Average PC hardware requirements for The Crew 2

  1. CPU: Intel Core i5-3470 3.2 GHz / AMD FX 6350 3.9 GHz
  2. Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 / AMD Radeon R9 270X
  3. RAM: 8 GB
  4. Disk space: about 30 GB
  5. Operating system: 64-bit Windows 7 / 8.1 / 10
  6. Requires an Ubisoft Club account and a permanent Internet connection

Meeting the average hardware requirements will enable you to run the game in 1080p resolution, in high detail and maintain 30 frames per second. They are not dramatically greater than the minimum requirements, although they assume using a processor and a graphics card of a slightly better class.

Recommended PC hardware requirements for The Crew 2

  1. CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K 3.2 GHz / AMD Ryzen 5 1600 3.2 GHz
  2. Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 / AMD Radeon RX 470
  3. RAM: 8 GB
  4. Disk space: about 30 GB
  5. Operating system: 64-bit Windows 7 / 8.1 / 10
  6. Requires an Ubisoft Club account and a permanent Internet connection

The recommended hardware requirements will enable you to launch the game in 1080p resolution, in high detail, and maintain 60 frames per second. Forcing the game to operate at a fixed framerate of 60 fps, requires that you possess a much better graphics card. The game clearly gains on quality in 60 frames and, if it is possible, it is worth having this option unlocked, even at the cost of lowering some other visual setting.

What Nvidia drivers are best to install for The Crew 2?

Recommended Nvidia drivers for The Crew 2 are the GeForce 398.36 Game Ready. They contain elements designed specifically for this Ubisoft game, thus ensuring better performance and stability of the game. Install this driver version if The Crew 2 crashes, objects on the screen are displayed incorrectly, or other serious problems occur.

  2. Xbox Live Gold subscription required
  3. Requires an Ubisoft Club account and a permanent Internet connection
  4. The game works better (also in 4K) and looks better on Xbox One X

Our impressions from testing The Crew 2 on PlayStation 4

We've prepared The Crew 2 game guide based on a standard PlayStation 4 console. Our impressions in terms of game performance are very positive. Even on the regular version of PS4 The Crew 2 offers nice visuals and no serious animation slows down. We didn't experience any texture loading either, even when traveling very fast on the world map. There are occasional small slowdowns mainly during racing in cities and on special tracks. However, they aren't tiring and don't interfere with the fun. The game never crashed on us and we only experienced a single case of disconnection with The Crew 2 servers.

Can I play The Crew 2 without an Internet connection?

No, it's not possible to play The Crew 2 offline. The game requires having an Internet connection not only at the moment of its launch, but also throughout the session (always online title). Permanent Internet connection allows you to meet other players while traveling on the map, and provides instant access to challenges, scoreboards and various social features. If you lose your connection to the servers, the game is interrupted and returns to the main menu. Resuming is possible only after having recovered the connection.

Note: In the case of the console versions, you must also have PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live Gold subscriptions. Lack of these services will prevent you from starting (or continuing) the game.

Where can I find my saves in The Crew 2?

The Crew 2 doesn't save the game progress on your computer or console's hard drive. Everything is automatically stored in the cloud and game servers. At the moment of launching, the Ubisoft user account is loaded and the current progress in the game is recovered on that basis.
