F1 2021 immerses you in the queen of motorsport with a special story
Â
F1 2021 will be released on July 16 this year and will bring an extended career mode with cooperation for two players, a special story mode, and later three new circuits. The title will arrive on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X | S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
The great attraction of F1 2021 is the story mode Braking Point. An epic journey will take place in it when you get from Formula 2 to the top of the Formula 1 world and become a celebrity of this world. Braking Point aims to immerse you in the enchanting world of the queen of motorsport and allow you to taste the lifestyle that prevails on and off the track: rivalry, emotions, and determination are essential to compete at the highest level. In story mode, Devon Butler will return, whom you may know as your biggest opponent from F1 2019.
Lee Mather, head of franchise games at Codemasters said, Braking Point is an exciting innovation that we have been preparing for years. We are proud that you can expand your gaming experience and allow players to experience the ups and downs of Formula One on and off the track. Breaking Point changes the game and puts the player in the spotlight in the biggest racing spectacle on the planet.
A career will allow you to connect online with a friend and enjoy cooperation, or choose different teams and compete on the track in synchronized races. Each of the riders has full control over their assistants, allowing players of all skill levels to come together and compete together. The career will also include Real-Season Start. Thanks to it, you can start at any time of the season with the position of drivers and teams from the real world of Formula 1.
Three new circuits ( Portimão, Portugal, Imola, Italy, and Jeddah in Saudi Arabia ) will arrive in F1 2021 later in the form of free additional content.
In F1 2021, My Team returns with the opportunity to create your own team and decide everything about it, a split-screen for two players, the opportunity to choose a shorter season in F1 and F2, the integration of sports, and accessible gameplay for less able racers.
For the first time, the game will use a new generation of consoles - Xbox Series X | S and PlayStation 5, where it boasts better visuals and faster loading times. The game supports free upgrades to the Xbox One version on the Xbox Series X | S and the PlayStation 4 version on the PlayStation 5.
For a Standard Edition pre-order, you will receive a Braking Point Content Pack, a set of exclusive game items (avatar, livery, overalls, gloves, helmet, winning radio fun) inspired by the fictional stars of the new story (Devon Butler, Aiden Jackson, and Casper Akkerman) and 5000 PitCoins.
In addition, the Digital Deluxe Edition includes seven as yet unimaginable iconic F1 drivers for use in My Team, additional customizable content, 18,000 PitCoins, and the ability to play F1 2021 three days earlier.
The track is being modified in Melbourne, Australia, and the tenth turn in Spain was being modified at the beginning of the year. We do not currently know whether F1 2021 will include these changes. Codemasters said last year that the preparation of new circuits took a long time. This is why they didn't respond to calendar changes due to coronavirus, and in F1 2020 there was instead an original schedule with previously confirmed circuits.
Last year, based on Landa Norris's feedback, the developers revised the profile of turn 14 on the Spanish circuit, which has been bad in the game since 2015.
It is possible that a shortened oval profile of the track in Bahrain, where the race was raced, could appear in F1 2021. Technically, it is modeled in the game.
