F1 24 Review: A Familiar Yet Satisfying Ride
Luke Reilly recently reviewed F1 24 on Xbox Series X, offering insights into this latest installment in the Codemasters F1 series. Available on Xbox One, PlayStation, and PC, F1 24 promises a slick and deep motorsports experience for both newbies and seasoned players alike. Let’s delve deeper into the features and changes that F1 24 brings to the table.
Revamped Career Mode and Handling Overhaul
In F1 24, players can dive into the new “driver career” mode, allowing them to step into the shoes of F1 superstars, legends, or even create custom drivers. This mode focuses on honing a single driver’s skills and reputation within the sport, providing a compelling narrative for players to immerse themselves in. The handling model has also been refined, offering sticky and compliant cars that are easy to control yet rewarding to master.
Mixed Reviews on Mid-Race Objectives and Secret Meetings
While the addition of mid-race objectives aims to add excitement to gameplay, some players find them arbitrary and disconnected from the actual race dynamics. Likewise, the implementation of secret meetings with rival teams can be a bit confusing, leading to unexpected outcomes within the game.
Graphics and Circuit Updates
Visually, F1 24 shines as the best-looking F1 game to date, with updated driver likenesses and circuit designs. Despite missing Circuit Paul Ricard, the game features 25 tracks, offering a diverse range of racing experiences that will keep players engaged.
Overall, F1 24 delivers a solid and enjoyable motorsports experience, especially for newcomers to the F1 gaming world. While returning players may find the game to be a familiar territory with minimal essential updates, the revamped career mode and refined handling make it a worthwhile addition to any racing enthusiast’s collection.
