EA Sports has sent out an action-packed announcement trailer for F1 23, and it’s coming to PCs and consoles much sooner than you’d think. According to the reveal trailer, players can take the checkered flag starting June 16, 2023. As expected with any EA game, players can take part in the action on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via the EA App, Steam, or Epic Games Store.
Formula One fans will be happy to hear that this latest iteration in the series will mark the return of “Braking Point,” the game’s story mode. In addition, players will find every team, driver, and circuit for the current 2023 season. This includes the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Lusail International Circuit, Qatar.
Braking Point returns for a bold new chapter following the careers of young upstart Aiden Jackson, and protagonist, Devon Butler, now teammates for Konnersport Racing Team, a fledgling organization hoping to succeed against the current real-world F1 teams and drivers. Adding a host of new characters, fresh rivalries, and racing challenges, both aim to take their careers to the next level, but there will be twists, turns, and pitfalls along the way.
