In recent years, only one thing has been established in the gaming industry, and that is that digital video game licenses are something that is easy for large companies to remove, given that the moment they decide they can press the switch. so that no one can access your titles anymore. Ubisoft knows this very well, given that their comments have not been missed, since at the time they mentioned that people should get the idea that these products are not theirs, but rather it is an income.
In December 2023 it was announced that the game servers The Crew They would be closing on April 1, 2024, which was already written in stone, and given this, users understood that they could no longer test the online functions, something that some had no problem with. However, that was not what they were referring to, since their plan was to eliminate the game from the face of the earth, and today many users have lost this delivery of the catalog as is, preventing them from even entering the start menu. .
The problem does not lie in the fact that the game has stopped working, since there are already some sequels that surpass this one in many aspects, the issue really is that at any time the company wants, it can leave users without the possibility of try the titles they have purchased in the store. Likewise, there is no kind of compensation, especially for those who have exchanged the game with money, ruling out the seasons in which the French company gave it away to the public.
This is the game description:
“The Crew” is an open-world racing video game developed by Ivory Tower and Ubisoft Reflections and published by Ubisoft. The game was first released in December 2014 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and Microsoft Windows. It stands out for its huge open world that replicates a condensed version of the United States, allowing players to freely navigate cities, fields, mountains and various environments on a continuous map and without loading times between regions.
“The Crew” and its successors are known for combining simulation and arcade elements, offering a gaming experience that is accessible but with enough depth to keep players engaged for the long term.
All this means that the digital market remains questionable. But unfortunately it is also happening with the physical one, because in some games (especially from Ubisoft), all the content no longer comes on the disk, but must be downloaded from the internet to play.

Editor's note: This digital thing is becoming more dangerous as the years go by. However, statistics say that they are the most purchased on the market, so we must prepare for the worst.
