F1 24 Will Launch May 31, Loyalty Discounts & 2024 Content for F1 23 With Pre-Orders​

Today marks only the launch date and edition announcement for F1 24, with more details coming down the line. However it’s pretty easy to be certain that, at a minimum, the title will feature the ten teams, 20 drivers, and 24 circuits of the 2024 Formula One World Championship — while senior creative director Lee Mather notes that “we’re bringing players an overhauled Career mode, a new EA Sports Dynamic Handling System, and so much more”...

Would love a VR mode with quality as good as AMS2 and AC, so far has been underwhelming

 

[Veinz]

mouse support would be nice

 

[MagpieRacer]

Interested to hear what the overhauled career mode will be like. I enjoyed it generally but it started feeling a bit samey by '23.

Love this time of year and I’m pre ordering today 🥳

The liveries in F1 23 look nice, I was having a peek a few days ago.

I must admit, it's impressive to manage to get them imported into F1 23 so early 👍

 

[PJTierney]

Sometimes liveries are in the F1 games before they race in real life, I've worked on a few special team reveals over the years (Red Bull in 21, Ferrari in 22, Ferrari and Alfa Romeo in 23), and Codemasters has a good relationship with the grid now.

"Fun" fact: F1 22 was removed from sale today, around the same time when trailer for F1 24 went live...

Noooooooo!!! I expected it to be soon but not unannounced. It's the first one I haven't bought since 2016!

 

[danthespaceman]

Still supporting those old consoles, so I'm not expecting much

 

[Kriptical]

If it has vr ill buy and try. But no vr, no joy.

 

[ZedNinetySix]

They should literally just make a game called
"Formula 1"
And add entire seasons/cars each year.

WAY more sustainable.

 

[lancashire lad]

Was hoping it would be next gen only so it's a no from me, unless it supports VR on PS5. Don't buy them every year and didn't bother with 23 so hopefully 25 will be the one that stands out as a genuine update.

^this no vr no buy

The previous gen support thing isn't an issue really, as even if the game was current gen only, the game would still need to run on a multitude of PC configurations, so why not run it on previous gen?

It used to bother me but when you think about how it isn't really holding anything back, it's not a problem.

 

[lancashire lad]

If it has to run on a 10yr old system how is that not holding it back?

The F1 licence probably requires Codemasters to release a game every year, (the WRC licence did for Kylotonn) so you'd have to convince F1 management (no, not the game, the people that own F1) of this first.

Better off waiting for 25. No vr and PS4 compatible is a killer for me.

There is literally no info about anything. PSVR2 can still be a thing (or not)

[slthree]

As much as I'm excited for the F1 season, I'm happy to stay with 23. I play it so sparingly that it doesn't bore me and I don't feel the need for something new.

PS VR2 support would be the only reason I'd buy this game

 

[Fezzik]

If you really want VR racing going forward, probably best to switch to PC.

 

[MagpieRacer]

Gran Turismo 7 has managed just fine. As have countless other games that have been cross gen. Hogwarts Legacy, Cyberpunk etc.

Great points

I plan this after sony announcement of PC support for PSVR2. Didn’t want to buy another headset, but i would still prefer having this on ps5 earlier actually

 

[sonnyboychris]

Definitely not touching this or any other racing games that don’t support PSVR2. Hopefully they’ve implemented it.

Wouldn't this be a perfect time for Sony and EA to work together on a promotion?

"Purchase f124 with a PS VR2 and get the game free" Surely Sony could take the $70 hit

Maybe they could do it with GTR Revival since, if they haven't already made that arrangement with EA, it's a little late.

In the background Sony would have to confirm with a developer that they'll make their game VR playable.

What a promotion that could be!

The game is out in 2 months. If it had vr, surely we would know by now. I'm happy to be proved wrong though.

Funny you mention Sony:

The timing is pretty interesting.
