1000 The Crew Wild Run closed beta keys up for grabs

Ubisoft has kindly provided us with 1000 PC closed beta keys for The Crew Wild Run, an expansion pack for last year's open-world racing game, to give away.

The beta is currently ongoing and finishes Monday 19th October, so you could be tearing around a virtual North America this coming weekend.

We are running a sweepstake giveaway from now until 10am UK time on Friday 16th October. Winners will be selected on Friday, with the lucky 1000 able to redeem their keys at http://thecrewgame.com/beta. The codes are for PC only.

Wild Run is the first expansion to open-world 'CarPG' The Crew, set for release on 17th November. In addition to four new vehicle types, each with their own game mode, the update features improved graphics and dynamic weather.

Martin had some time with the expansion recently and thoroughly enjoyed it - like our reviewer, Outside Xbox's Mike Channell, Martin is a fan of Ivory Tower's underrated, scrappy but heartfelt racing epic. He and Chris Bratt discuss his thoughts on Wild Run in this recent video.

If you wish to follow us on Twitter you do not need to select 'Connect Your Twitter Account'.) Whether you enter only once with your email or via any of the additional methods, Eurogamer will not collect your data and will never use your details for marketing purposes.
