Codemaster has this week released a new trailer for its F1 2012 game together with a demo of the game which provide you with a glimpse of what you can expect from the main game once it officially launches later this month.
The F1 2012 demo launched on Xbox 360 in Europe and US on Monday 10th September, the PC and PS3 demo in the US on Tuesday 11th September, and for PS3 gamers in Europe on Wednesday 12th September 2012.
“In the demo, players will sample two of the game’s new features, Young Driver Test and Season Challenge. In the Young Driver Test, which takes inspiration from the real-life event held at Abu Dhabi, players will learn how to handle and get the most out of motorsport’s most exciting and responsive racing cars with a series of tests and videos.”
New Features in F1 2012
The F1 2012 game introduces several new features that aim to enhance the gaming experience for both seasoned players and newcomers to the franchise. One of the standout additions is the Young Driver Test mode. This mode is designed to help players get accustomed to the intricacies of Formula 1 racing. It includes a series of tutorials and challenges that teach players how to handle the high-speed, high-performance cars used in the sport. The mode is inspired by the real-life Young Driver Test event held annually in Abu Dhabi, where aspiring F1 drivers get the chance to showcase their skills.
Another exciting feature is the Season Challenge mode. This mode allows players to experience a condensed version of the F1 season, making it perfect for those who may not have the time to commit to a full-length season. In Season Challenge, players can choose a rival and aim to outperform them over the course of ten races. This adds a layer of strategy and competition, as players must not only focus on winning races but also on outperforming their chosen rival.
Gameplay and Graphics
F1 2012 promises to deliver an immersive and realistic racing experience. The game features highly detailed graphics that bring the excitement of Formula 1 racing to life. From the meticulously designed cars to the accurately rendered tracks, every aspect of the game has been crafted to provide an authentic experience. The weather system in the game is also worth mentioning. Dynamic weather conditions can change the course of a race, adding an extra layer of challenge and realism. Players will need to adapt their strategies based on changing weather conditions, just like real F1 drivers.
The game also includes a variety of multiplayer options, allowing players to compete against friends or other players from around the world. Whether you prefer split-screen racing with a friend or online multiplayer with up to 16 players, F1 2012 offers plenty of options to keep you engaged.
F1 2012 will be officially launching on 21st September 2012 for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC.
The anticipation for the game’s release is palpable, as fans of the franchise eagerly await the chance to experience the new features and improvements. The demo has already received positive feedback, with players praising the game’s realistic physics and detailed graphics. If the demo is any indication, F1 2012 is set to be one of the best entries in the series yet.
In conclusion, Codemaster’s F1 2012 is shaping up to be a must-have for racing game enthusiasts. With its new features, realistic gameplay, and stunning graphics, it promises to deliver an unparalleled Formula 1 racing experience. Whether you’re a long-time fan of the series or a newcomer looking to get into the world of F1 racing, this game is definitely worth checking out.
