Nvidia has released a new update for its GeForce cards- Driver 398.36- which adds game ready drivers for Ubisoft’s open world racing MMO game, The Crew 2, which is available now (you should get it if you were a fan of the first game). Basically, this will include game ready profiles for an optimized experience while playing the game.
That said, the update also includes updates to profiles for other games, including Dark Souls Remastered and Need for Speed Payback. You can check out the full range of changes for yourself below- but suffice it to say, even if you don’t want The Crew 2, it is probably a good idea to download the driver update anyway.
As for The Crew 2 itself- the game is out now. It is available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, and much like the original game which came out in 2014, sees some high octane multiplayer racing across an open world.
