Plus some new Wild Run stuff
After gettingThe Crewand itsWild Runexpansion on sale a few weeks back, the racing game has slowly become a night-devouring obsession. It has problems, definitely, but I’m loving it as something I can play while listening to podcasts or audio books or whatever the case may be.
A new update went out today that, among other things, adds a photo mode. It’s terrific. you’re able to activate it by holding down on the d-pad, at which the action freezes and you’re able to roam around in a 3D space, tinkering with things like weather effects, time of day, blur, focus, and filters.
I think most games would benefit from giving players tools to take cool in-game screenshots —The Last of Us RemasteredandinFamous: Second Sonboth immediately come to mind — butThe Crewis a particularly good candidate given its strange, scaled-down model of the United States.
Also, I have to imagine there’s lots of potential for intricate group shots. This game is online only, so you might as well incorporate multiple players in your photography.
If you’re aWild Runowner, look out for a new challenge type, Speed Trap, in The Summit on July 15, 2025. In the mean time, expect to find the Hummer H1 Alpha for the Monster spec and some game improvements / fixes. The patch notes can befound over here.
