    It’s completely normal that the next installments of a sports series evolve slowly. Fortunately, sometimes there is a revolution – F1 23 is one such example. The game is well thought out, has some excellent changes, and has a terrific steering/traction model that makes it one of the best sports games ever.

    Surprisingly, EA and Codemasters deliver one of the biggest and best F1 games with F1 23 – a massive playground for those who love motorsports and high speed. And thanks to F1 World, casual gamers are now more welcome than ever.

    The excellent story, still-superlative career and loot-based F1 World make for a convincing and gigantic F1 experience.

    F1 23 is a strong entry that amends a lot of the damage done by its predecessor. The innovations to on-track racing are significant enough that franchise fans will be able to justify the price for that alone. Especially those that rack up most of their hours playing with friends or in competitive leagues. For casual players, the arrival of F1 World and the return of Braking Point should offer enough to keep them entertained. Although, the total neglect of My Team and co-op career is hard to ignore and will be a deal breaker for some.

    While bugs and issues can stand in the way of your enjoyment, F1 23 has a lot of content, and its VR mode in particular is sensational. The story mode’s scenario also felt deeper when compared to previous entries.

    If F1 23 don't seem to be interested in renewal, the return of Breaking Point and the notable improvements in driving let the games easily get a high score.

    F1 23 is a face wash that promises to give us the best immersion possible without even getting better over the years. Its graphics are amazing, the story mode Braking Point 2 and My Team work well, but the most important thing is that there is not much difference with its predecessor. With the new circuits, the game appears more modern and fresh.

    This game feels more like what I think everyone has been expecting these games to be. The driving feels 10x better than 21 and 22 which wereThis game feels more like what I think everyone has been expecting these games to be. The driving feels 10x better than 21 and 22 which were atrocious. Traction feels way more realistic now and you’re not spinning at every corner. AI is also finally much smarter and doesn’t just try to drive through you. F1 world is the mind of thing that I think I everyone knew should have been in the game and for a while for some reason it was just left out. This is the “My Team”/mmorpg-esq aspect of this game. The main thing I like about it is the various challenges and unique scenarios that lot of other racing games employ as a way to give you other fun things to do other than just career, time trail, and multiplayer. Overall, for me it’s definitely an improvement from 2022/21. Expand

    A welcome array of new features compared with the previous opus.
    A new physics engine that is especially welcome, enhancing grip, particularly during traction phase.
    Graphically, we're looking at a game from 2023, no doubt about it. It's beautiful, with well-implemented Ray Tracing.
    The return of the "story" mode called "Breaking Point" is always a welcome addition.
    "F1 World" is also an interesting and different take to he game.

    However, the game is still riddled with bugs, which can sometimes be very detrimental to the experience.
    I'm still scared to start the career mode at this point, let alone a two-player career.
    The new red flag feature, which was inducing random final positions until this weeks patch, is probably the best example. Having potentially an hour long race being ruined by a bug triggered after the race is finish could really be infuriating.
    It could sound exaggerated, but more that often, it looks like many of their features are not really tested in real condition.
