To put things into perspective, The Crews Creative Director Julian Gerighty presented us with an overview of the map during my visit to Ivory Tower showing how its size compares to other worlds in familiar free-roaming games.
Staggeringly, it revealed that The Crew's open world is bigger than Grand Theft Auto Vs Los Santos, Red Dead Redemptions Wild West, Forza Horizons Colorado, Need for Speed Rivals Redview County, Far Cry 3s tropical island and Skyrim combined. All of these worlds were shown tucked neatly inside The Crew's US map, which makes you appreciate the scale of the world youll be exploring.
In terms of size, our New York is about the same size as Liberty City in GTA IV, Julian explains. But on top of that weve got Chicago, Detroit, St Louis, Miami, Dallas, Las Vegas, Seattle, San Francisco and all of these cities - I insisted on including Detroit because of the heart of Motor City. But its not just these cities: its everything in-between. So its a very big game.
