'The Crew' details leaked.

5 days ago we talked about ‘The Crew’, Ubisoft’s new racing IP for next-gen and, possibly, also for current generation.

The game would be developed by Ubisoft Reflections. Driver: San Francisco was the last game developed by the studio and it seems that “The Crew” will share some points with it.

Here you can see the details leaked by GameBlog:

The Crew is expected to play similar to Ubisoft Reflections most recent racer Driver: San Francisco, with a semi-arcade style of racing.
As with Driver: San Francisco, The Crew will be open world with the ability to travel between New York City and Los Angeles, though the scale of these cities has been reduced.
It is not clear whether you will travel through wilderness to reach each city or whether the game will simply load in each area.
The Crew will also feature a similar ‘Google Maps’ style mechanic, presumably for navigating the open world.
A ‘Freeride’ mode will be available too, which the option to choose between missions or challenges.
Multiplayer will feature 8 players in either competitive or co-operative gameplay, though no more specific details were provided.
As is the case with Ubisoft’s Watch Dogs – and presumably many of the publisher’s next-gen games – The Crew will come with a companion app for mobile devices.
It is presumed that The Crew’s release date will be before the end of 2013, presumably to tie into a next-gen release. With such a close release date, it’s safe to assume The Crew will be announced at E3 2013.
