QUESTION:
Can I play The Crew without a PS+ or Xbox Live membership?
ANSWER:
Players with Xbox Live Silver or PlayStation Network accounts can play The Crew, enjoy Free Ride across the US map, play every mission and skills challenge, cross other players' paths, and participate in all the asynchronous activities that The Crew offers.

However, in order to communicate with others and to dive further into the multiplayer experience with Co-op and PvP, either a Xbox Live Gold or PS+ membership will be required.
