F1 25 General Discussion

[Veinz]

I hope they let is continue our current career mode with the 2026 dlc.

The series is safe - for now at least. Things are never a guarantee with EA.

EA SPORTS F1® FRANCHISE ANNOUNCEMENT

2026 premium content update for F1® 25 marks the start of a reimagined EA SPORTS F1® series

2026 season will be DLC expansion for '25. New game in 2027 with big changes.

traxion seem to approve:

F1 26 will be a paid expansion, with a new "reimagined" F1 game coming in 2027

The 2027 Formula 1 game is set to deliver a “refreshed experience”, according to Codemasters.

Saw the email from them and I went:

I love the sport but I haven't been enticed to purchase a F1 game since 2020.
Hoping that this ''strategic reset'' will pull me back in as well add some proper classic content once again.

This franchise has desperately needed a break
F1 25 is a good base to build off of, but I’ve been saying for years that really EA should only make a new game at least every two years

The difficulty is the Licence agreement said every year, for the last 15 years, so EA/Codemasters didnt have any say in the matter. Until now. I can only assume that F1 agreeing for a DLC only next year was part of the negotiation for the licence renewal.
