As an avid gamer and a member of the military who is often stationed far away from my family, playing games has become one of the few ways I can connect with my younger brother. We both share a passion for racing games, and we were thrilled to discover that The Crew: Motorfest offers cross-play functionality. However, our excitement quickly turned into disappointment when we realized that co-op, free-roam, and party features are not available between different platforms. Crossplay is only used for matchmaking to ensure full lobbies.

My brother owns an Xbox while I have a gaming PC. Despite having the ability to play the game separately, we are unable to fully enjoy the game's cooperative gameplay elements or explore its vast open world together. This limitation greatly hinders our ability to bond over shared experiences and creates a sense of isolation even when we try to connect virtually.

The addition of full cross-play support for co-op and free-roam in The Crew: Motorfest would not only enhance our gaming experience but also benefit countless other players who face similar challenges due to geographical distance or platform differences. It would allow friends and family members separated by circumstances beyond their control to come together in virtual worlds, fostering stronger connections despite physical separation.

We understand that implementing such features may require technical adjustments and coordination between different platforms. However, it is worth noting that many popular games have successfully incorporated full cross-play support across various platforms without sacrificing gameplay quality or security measures.

According to recent statistics from industry reports (source: https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/insights/industry/technology/future-crossplay-gaming-demand.html there has been an increasing demand for cross-platform play among gamers worldwide. Players want the freedom to choose their preferred platform without being limited by compatibility issues or restrictions on multiplayer functionalities.

By adding full cross-play support for co-op and free-roam in The Crew: Motorfest, Ubisoft can demonstrate its commitment towards inclusivity, player satisfaction, and fostering meaningful connections between gamers. This move would not only attract a wider player base but also strengthen the game's community and longevity.

We, the undersigned, urge Ubisoft to listen to the voices of its dedicated players and take action by implementing full cross-play support for co-op and free-roam in The Crew: Motorfest. Let us bridge the gap between platforms and create an immersive gaming experience that brings friends and families closer together.

Thank you for considering our petition. Together, let's make gaming a truly inclusive experience for all.

Best Regards,
Elijah Burns
