Jun 2, 2025I’m encouraged by the work that has gone in to improve and launch My Team 2.0, but I can’t help but feel short-changed with too many customized options being locked behind a paywall. That being said, I can see myself putting a lot more hours into F1 25, exploring the different outcomes in Braking Point 3 and delving into a long-term save in My Team.

May 27, 2025F1 25 strikes a strong balance between convenience for casual players and depth for racing enthusiasts. It refines the gameplay and storytelling from previous entries while introducing enough new features to keep the experience fresh, though it doesn't radically reinvent the series. Minor frustrations like repeated engineer messages and a sense of annual iteration prevent it from scoring higher, but overall it delivers a polished and engaging motorsport simulation.

Jun 2, 2025It's clear that EA and Codemasters have focused on making a different game. Will it satisfy the core fan base? Probably, though perhaps not 100%. It's also worth asking whether the developers, with small changes, aren't beginning to open up their horizons to a new, more casual audience, one that doesn't want to spend so much time on specific car configurations and simply enjoys the category and the occasional race in a realistic setting. And if so, would that be so bad?

Jun 1, 2025As is often the case with the F1 license stamped by EA and Codemasters, the installments follow one another but are not really similar in content. Because this year, Breaking Point is back and the next F1 film are highlighted to revive the story-driven interest of the saga. Good one-off contributions, even if for the long term, we will rather remember the Career mode which goes a little further than previous years. Even if it does not really renew its gameplay and its graphics, F1 25 remains solid for an official simulation and accessible for neophytes.

Jun 3, 2025F1 25 launches off the line with the first drastic shake-up of the core ‘My Team’ career mode since it was introduced in F1 2020, alongside a conclusion for the story mode that began as a short prologue way back in F1 2019 (and became a mode of its own in F1 2021). The driver career mode makes little attempt to differentiate itself from its debut in F1 24 but, when combined, F1 25 is a far broader and better package than last year’s installment. There are still several areas where it hovers frustratingly short of its full potential – and I’ll never be able to get behind its fascination with clothing and emotes over meaningful classic F1 cars and content – but it’s comfortably the strongest the series has been since the fan favourite F1 2020.
