Ubisoft launched The Crew 2 open-world driving game in June, and now it’s supporting it with a post-release update called Gator Rush.

I took Gator Rush for a spin last week at a Ubisoft press event in San Francisco. And while I’m not much of a player, I found it was easy to get into after just a couple of races. The update’s main feature is hovercraft, which you can take for a joyride through the bayou.
