Hey all,
It has been just over two weeks since we launched F1® 24, and we are so excited to see everyone joining the grid and sharing their favourite in-game moments with us.
The 2024 season has just started, so let’s deep-dive into what you can expect to see in the upcoming year!
With F1® 24, we are going to change how we approach live service with the introduction of Seasons. Each Season will be based on a central theme and include challenges that reflect the current 2024 season, so you can relive the highs and rewrite history. Over the year, we will announce the upcoming Season theme alongside the challenges. This new approach enables us to bring you closer to the grid and connected to the key moments throughout the season.
Throughout each Season, we will provide brand new Challenge Career Episodes, Race Scenarios, Pro Challenges and more! You will be able to unlock new FREE customisation items, including Race Suits and liveries, to show off your style on the track. You can also unlock new compendium stickers, F1 World Resources and more!
That's not all. The team is cooking up some special rewards inspired by what you have seen on track this Season, but we will tell you more about this in the future.
Now that you know how we are changing our approach to Live Service, let's break down what's coming in Season One. This is centered around ""Modern Day Heroes"", you will be able to step into the shoes of Scuderia Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and Aston Martin’s legendary driver Fernando Alonso.
Charles Leclerc Challenge Career
Free for all F1 24 owners and already available to play until June 28, take on four weekly Episodes, each containing three unique races. The Leclerc Challenge Career delivers a bite-sized version of the 2024 season, challenging you to compete with the community to earn the best possible results for the Monégasque driver. Every Episode completed unlocks a piece of Constellation customisation gear, including a livery, suit, gloves, and helmet.
Aston Martin Event Series
There's more exciting content coming to the game in July with the Aston Martin Event Series! Inspired by past triumphs from Aston's veteran driver, Fernando Alonso, F1® 24 will bring you new ways to relive some of his legendary on-track moments. Stay tuned for more details.
Are you in my Zone?
A new feature of F1® 24 is Fanzone, which lets you show your support for teams, drivers, and more.
When you head into F1® World and complete the tutorial, you will be asked to pick your favourite Team and Driver. These are locked for each in-game Season. Your Fanzone picks will be displayed across the game in places like your Super License, Leaderboards, and Online Lobbies. Everything you do in F1® World will earn Fanzone points, and at the end of each in-game Season, the top zones get rewards!
As part of Fanzone, we will ask you to predict each Grand Prix; you will have to make your choice before Qualifying starts, but take care with your predictions, as once you pick an option, you are locked in! A few of the predictions we are going to challenge you with; Which Team or Driver will earn the most points, or which drive will finish ahead, along with questions on Pit Stops and more
You'll also compete against others in your Fanzone on individual goals, with larger community goals also available.
Check back with Fanzone often to see how you're progressing within your Fanzone and the wider community goals.
A look to the future…
Stay tuned for more details on each Season's challenges, which will be announced shortly before they go live in-game. We will deliver multiple seasons with unique themes, all focused on delivering an authentic and exhilarating F1® experience that celebrates the sport's past, present, and future.
