Evaluation
Crash Force launched into Early Access on January 21, 2017 and officially left Early Access on July 14, 2017. The game received a steady stream of feature patches throughout its Early Access period and immediately after launch, adding hovercrafts, maps, game modes, and cosmetic systems. The most significant post-launch milestone came on February 16, 2018, when the developer shipped what they called "the mother of all patches" (v.2.1.950), which converted the game to free-to-play, overhauled the main menu, introduced a new game mode (Control The Nest), added offline bot play, and reworked the skill tree system entirely. This was framed as a major transformation of the game rather than a step in an ongoing content roadmap. No further developer communications, patches, or announcements have appeared after February 16, 2018 — a silence of over eight years as of today. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no announced future content, and no roadmap pointing to upcoming updates. The February 2018 patch appears to represent the end of active development, with no evidence of any subsequent activity from the studio.
Evidence

About this game
Crash Force is an online multiplayer, arena, shooting game at its core with RPG and racing elements.
Crash Force is a mixture of Quake, Unreal Tournament, Twisted Metal and Rocket League in an explosive, fast-paced and competitive sci-fi alternative universe where hovercraft families rule the universe.
The player assumes the role of a hovercraft to annihilate their enemies. You will have your pick from a variety of different hovercraft classes and skill trees, each with it’s own customizable options. This customization includes changing how the hovercraft looks, but also how it feels. This is achieved through RPG reminiscent skill trees that shape the way your hovercraft plays.
Every level you get a skill point, which you can use to further your skill trees, you can unlock buffs to health, speed, ammo, weapon damage, and more. Every 30 levels, you get an aviation point. Aviation points are used to unlock the larger skill sections. They give unique skills to the gameplay like lifesteal, exploding death and spawn invulnerability.

- Built in Unreal Engine 4.
- Target platform PC and Xbox One, works well with a controller.
- Nine Hovercrafts to choose from three factions and three classes.
- Each hovercraft has four unique abilities.

Enter the heat of battle with free for all, team deathmatch and objective based games to rise in the ranks and unlock new decals, bumpers and skill points to further your skill trees. Crash force comes to you with a variety of different maps, each with a vastly different environment. On each of these maps you will conquer other hovercraft, with a primary fire, a secondary fire and a selection of 4 abilities that you will use to change the course of the fight.
Once you have customized your craft and chosen your game type, it will be time to wreak havoc on the online player base.
