Overall, The Crew 2 offers an expansive and diverse racing experience across a beautifully crafted open-world version of the United States. While the game is praised for its variety of vehicles, stunning visuals, and vast map for exploration, it faces criticism for its arcade-like physics, always-online requirement, and concerns about future server availability. Mixed opinions exist on handling and the inclusion of various vehicle types beyond cars. Regular updates and a strong multiplayer component keep the community engaged, although concerns regarding Ubisoft's practices linger among players.
