Description

F1 2021 for PC is the 14th game in the franchise by Codemasters, and the first by EA Games – at least since 2003. It traces the world of Formula One racing, adhering closely to the real-world industry, giving racing fans the chance to play out their racing heroes’ best races.

About the Game


The new and improved story mode brings back driver, Devon Butler, along with some other engaging characters (Aiden Jackson and Caspar Akerman amongst them), and unlike previous story modes, it introduces the player to a previously unseen glimpse of life off the tracks as well as on them and in the garages.

My Team, the worthy replacement to Career Mode is back, and has some new and exciting features for you to find and explore. However, career mode is still there for single players who don’t play well with others – or rather who do well with just one friend! (see below for more).

Keep an eye out for qualifying sprint races that add excitement to the game and are great when you only have a short time available to play. And also keep an eye on your driver ratings as these impact on your performance on the track.

What’s New?


In this iteration of the game, two players can work along the almost defunct Career Mode together for the first time. You can choose whether to be allies or enemies depending on what you (and your friend) prefer. This is ideal for solo players or best friends who are not into multi-playing.

It is multiplayer that is the strongest focus of this incarnation of the game. New racecourses have been added, just as in real life, but not the full stable of recent sign-ups to the race as the game was already in production when some of the courses joined up to Formula One.

There are, however, some pleasant surprises in store for fans as far as courses go – and hopefully the full stable is due to come along with later (free) DLCs as has been promised by the game developers.

If you’re not too imaginative or have a special F1 hero, you can use the Real-Season Start feature to play with real-life driver and constructor standings.

Who’s New?


Following the real life F1 upon which the game is based, there are some new and exciting faces in this game.

  • A nostalgic sight for fans of his father, Mick Schumacher is back, but this time as a rookie driver for Haas, having been a free agent before

  • Nikita Mazepin the youthful Russian driver racing under a neutral flag to represent the Russian Automobile Federation

  • Yuki Tsunoda is a Japanese racing sensation who has already caught the eye of several of the Formula One big players, despite his youth

  • Spanish racing sensation, Fernando Alonso returns after a couple of years’ absence

  • F1 2021 for PC is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.

    It's about average and very inconsistent track-to-track while Braking Point fails to add anything new to the table. Above all else, it's been patched unplayable twice, and the AI fail to do the best strategy at most tracks in 50% races (usually soft-medium).
    • Graphics
    • Menu music
    • Boring strategies
    • Dumb AI
    • Patched unplayable
    Of course very similar to F1 2020 but of course with the new cars but overall I think it’s a downgrade.

    Single player- still good with my team and driver career mode plus a decent story mode called Braking Point.

    Multiplayer- very glitchy, weird hubs so confusing for new players in what to play, lack of sessions, some don’t work. Needs to be fixed

    Gameplay- Still fun but more challenging as the cars have less grip especially on the curbs. 22 tracks with more coming. Graphics and performance aren’t crazy but decent enough on Xbox One S.

    Overall- good gameplay but more challenging and feels slightly rushed.
    Great game. New to the franchise and is hitting hard. Graphics look even better than last years and the story is good. Driving at 200 mph is really fun overtaking and also playing with your friends going head to head in some fast gameplay
    • Great gameplay
    • Great story mode
    • Still updating
    • Could improve the handling
    I was confused about some missing tracks and the jump in career from March to May.well,i have 21 tracks there.So don't know why there will be more tracks in updates.I played every F1 in the last 10 years and my feeling is that i turn myself so often like never before. That's frustrating.But i have to say that i have fun yet.The evening race looks awesome,but that was a highlight in the last games,too. Play on series x and i don't have the impression that there is a great difference to F1 20. I'm not sure what to say about to say about the story.I think it's quite okay. The tasks are simple, the dialogues,too.There is nothing special to expect till now.But the most important thing is the racing and that makes fun.
    • looks fine in the evening
    • i'm driving like on ice too often
