Though rumors circulated prior, it has now been confirmed that F1 24 will launch on May 31, leaving you ample time to get ready for a high-octane experience.
F1 23 was received well by critics, scoring itself an 82 on Metacritic as of February 28. Time will tell whether this year’s release has enough to differentiate itself from its predecessor.
Prizes for pre-orders
EA has provided you with plenty of incentives to pre-order the upcoming racing game. This is especially true of the Champions Edition which, if pre-ordered before April 24 by F1 23 players, will let you enjoy Time Trial challenges using the new Alpine, Haas, McLaren, and Williams 2024 team cars.
The digital-exclusive Champions Edition is one for the fans, and it comes with two new F1 icons and an F1 Bumper Pack containing resources for both single and multiplayer events. Perhaps most enticingly, you’ll also get 18,000 PitCoins and three days of early access (beginning May 28).
Have you been invested in the series for a while? There are benefits to this because anyone who owns F1 21, F1 22, or F1 23 will receive a 15% discount when pre-ordering the Champions Edition of the upcoming game. F1 23 players will also score some liveries that you’ll be able to use in a special in-game F1 World event. The McLaren and Alpine 2023 F1 esports liveries will carry over to F1 24.
The Standard Edition can also be pre-ordered, but it doesn’t come with much besides an F1 World Starter Pack and 5,000 PitCoins. Regardless of what version you pre-order, you’ll also receive a bonus VIP Podium Pass.
You’ll have to wait until the full reveal on April 24 to catch the full reveal which should let you know whether you’re ready to jump into the cockpit or not. According to Codemasters, the studio behind the upcoming title, you can expect “an overhauled Career mode, a new EA SPORTS Dynamic Handling System, and so much more.”
F1 24 will be available for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
