F1® 25 News

It’s racing season again, and that means a new F1 game from EA and Codemasters. F1 25 has some truly incredible moments, and lays some important building blocks for future entries to build upon as well. Where things get bogged down is an issue that has plagued the F1 series for the last few years: replayability.

As I mentioned in my review of last year’s F1 24, the Braking Point storyline makes a triumphant return in F1 25. The fictional racing team Konnersport is back with drivers Callie Mayer and Aiden Jackson in the driving seats, and I could not be happier. Things pick up right where they left off last time and throws the player (and the drivers) into the deep end of the Formula 1 season, hoping to make a lasting impact on the field.

Braking Point has some incredible highs and devastating lows as you work your way through the story and the season. Each chapter that you begin lets you pick which of the two drivers you want to race as for that particular chapter, which... Read more

Leave your mark on the world of racing in F1® 25, the official video game of the 2025 FIA Formula One World Championship™.

Below, you can find the PC features you can enjoy in F1® 25. We have covered everything from the newly introduced path tracing to playing on the keyboard, steering wheel, or controller.

Real Time Path Tracing:
Path tracing lets us cast light rays from every pixel in the camera view and simulate the light bouncing 3-4 times around the scene. Each bounce samples a surface, and the light moves to the next surface. This makes a cloud of colour that we can use some advanced algorithms to resolve back into pixels from the lit 3D scene. Path tracing offers the most advanced simulation of light interactions.

For example, there are hundreds of thousands of light sources in Bahrain. Simulating the type of real time shadow interaction, self-reflection, and colour bounce you get with path tracing is far ahead of older techniques.



Ray Tracing:
Immerse yourself deeper into your F1® experience with Raytraced visuals available in Race using the “Ultra” graphics preset.*

Virtual Reality:
Exclusive to PC. Feel the drama of the race from right inside the cockpit.

Custom Graphics Settings:
We’ve added a bunch of settings so players can tweak the game to run just how they like it, whether cranking up the graphics for top performance or keeping things smooth on a portable device. Since everyone’s setup differs, we wanted to ensure something for everyone. And if you’d rather not mess with settings, no worries, we’ve got some handy presets to get you going fast.

Custom Race UI:
Fully optimise your heads-up display with the most comprehensive customisation options in a racing title.



Eye Tracking Support:
Become one with your F1® Car - track your eye movements when you’re behind the wheel to improve performance.

Custom Race Setups:
Use the Steam workshop feature to find and download balanced setups for every Grand Prix by using custom setups created by the community.
