The Crew isn’t coming to PlayStation 3 or Wii U because Ubisoft chose to “focus solely on the platform closest to the new-gen’s technical infrastructure” when porting the game to last-gen.

“The Crew is originally built for the new generation of consoles so when we made the decision to port it to the previous generation of consoles, we decided to focus solely on the platform closest to the new-gen’s technical infrastructure, which is the Xbox 360,” a Ubisoft representative explained to VideoGamer.com this afternoon.

“We are not currently working on a PS3 or Wii U version, we are rather focused on delivering The Crew for Xbox One, PS4, PC and Xbox360 simultaneously on November 11th.”

Ubisoft announced an Xbox 360 version of The Crew this morning, later revealing that the last-gen version would be “the same game” as the PS4 and Xbox One versions, complete with the entirety of the USA to explore.

The Crew launches on Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4 and PC on November 11.
