    Poor graphics, ps5 version has a ps2 like shadows and a lot of visual glitches when ray tracing is being used. Ai is broken, it can be really slow in some circuits and completely unbeatable in others like baku, monaco and imola for example, and that's using the same difficulty level.

All the cars are already outdated in comparison to real life (liverys and in some cases like aston martin, the chassi aswell). F1 Life is a joke, really its an embarrassing and desperate attempt from EA to grab even more money from us. Nobody cares about couches and wall paitings in an F1 GAME.
    OBS: now raising my score to 5 because they finally fixed the ai speed, and now the game is fun to play.    … Expand

    This game feels like a content reuse simulator. From animations over graohics and UI to gameplay mechanics, very little feels new and like it has only changed in insignificant ways. There are no doubt improvements but overall I don't think it is worth a AAA price tag.

There are no doubt improvements but overall I don't think it is worth a AAA price tag. Driving feels slughtly more responsive at times just like it feels slightly more sluggish at times, that may also come down to the improved setup tuning that is now available.

    One thing they did however is "improve" is that both male and female forms of a word are now displayed in the menu instead of the generally used neutral male form so that players of all genders feel equally mentioned. Thanks EA, the game is boring but at least nobody is not mentioned. Those priorities are an absolute joke to me.    … Expand

    Good: It’s F1, always a fun way to learn the circuits and enjoy the broadcast more as a result.

    Bad: Graphics are very last generation, doesn’t hold up to other PS5 titles.

    In general I like the new cars! So the look is great already. The handling is also awesome, you have to be really sensitive on the throttle now in slow speed corners. I am pretty sure it is hard to drive with a controller only. Further I like the new tracks. Finally the replays are working as well in 60fps on the PS5 which wasn`t the case last year. Besides that nothing new really. CareerIn general I like the new cars! So the look is great already.

Finally the replays are working as well in 60fps on the PS5 which wasn`t the case last year. Besides that nothing new really. Career Mode is the same, which was not that bad but not that exciting. AI seems to make some mistakes now. But further the AI seems a bit broken and it is tough to find the correct level of driving difficulty. Normally I checked in GP mode where I am and transferred this to my career, but this is not valid anymore. When I am close to my teammate in GP mode, he beats me by 0,500 + in career . So this is a bit annoying.
    So all in all, sound great, graphic slidely improved, great handling. Besides no huge steps forward.
    F1 Life is a gimmic for people who need it, but nothing to the game. I like the Supercars though, something different.    … Expand

    The gameplay is more realistic and difficult but is still enjoyable, also the AI defend and attack better than the previous year. The graphics aren't next gen and the lack of story are the weak points of the game. Also online is an ultra toxic environment. There are some glitches too, specifically in the lobbies.

    Muy flojo. No aporta nada nuevo. Ojalá reconduzca su camino porque no hay novedad año tras año.

    Those who get their kicks not from the numbers and tables of a management game, but from phenomenal speeds on the track should choose ‘F1 22’. The annual release of this racing game consistently ranks among the top and has recently received an update that added even more content.

    Another year, another F1, this time with almost no major changes, microtransactions, dysfunctional VR support and ridiculously bad supercars modes and additions. Yeah, the first EA-published Codemasters game had some of their notoriously bad practices inside of it, and even though it is no surprise, it is a sad day, since last year's edition was one of the best F1 experiences ever made.

    Codemasters is taking something that was already great and trying to bring it into line with the modern reality of F1. Technically the title moves to incredible levels of quality, but unfortunately the impression is created that FIA's changes in the real life environment have not been translated so successfully to the corresponding digital one.
