Developed under Codemasters’ exclusive worldwide
agreement with Formula One World Championship Limited, F1 will invite players
to ‘FEEL
FORMULA ONE’s unique SPEED, PASSION, and
GLORY’. F1 2012 will deliver an experience that puts players into the
heart of the world’s most exciting sport, powered by cutting edge graphics,
advanced physics systems and integrated network play. It will be the most
accessible FORMULA ONE game yet with a new Young Driver Test, taking
inspiration from the real world event, to introduce new players to the world of
FORMULA ONE racing and explain how to handle motor sport’s most exciting and
responsive cars.
Gamers can play the F1 2012 Demo and
experience it before the full retail release. The demo will allow players to
try out two of the game’s new features - Young Driver Test & Season
Challenge.
Some of the key features of the FORMULA ONE game include:
Champions
Mode
The 2012 FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP features six World Champions
– can you beat each in a racing challenge?
Season
Challenge
A FORMULA ONE career in the space of ten races, Season Challenge
sees the player start at a low ranking team and select a rival driver they
think they can beat. Beating this level will take players into better car and become Champion.
Young
Drivers Test
Gamers will be introduced to the world of FORMULA ONE and learn
the nuances of how to drive a FORMULA ONE car by taking part in the all-new
Young Drivers Test at Abu Dhabi’s Yas Marina. Players will take to the wheel of
a Red Bull, Ferrari or McLaren and will complete tutorials to learn how to get
the best out of their car, including how and when to use KERS (Kinetic Energy
Recovery System) and DRS (Drag Reduction System).
New
USA Circuit for 2012
FORMULA ONE returns to the USA in 2012 at the all new
Circuit of the Americas, located in Austin, Texas, and players can drive on the
circuit ahead of the track’s debut in November.
Game
Changing Dynamic Weather
Codemasters’ FORMULA ONE series has set
the standard for weather in racing games. This will provide Active Track
Technology to produce localised rain showers on certain areas of the circuit. When one part of the track is wet while other areas are dry this will make the
race more unpredictable and dramatic as players make game-changing strategy
calls.
Commenting on the F1 2012 Indian launch Sweta Agnihotri, COO, Reliance Home Video and Games, said, “FORMULA
ONE game has a huge fan base across the world and Codemasters’ FORMULA ONE games
are a landmark release in the gaming calendar - this year is no different. FORMULA
ONE is the pinnacle of motor sport and one of the most popular sports in the
world, and I am sure gamers will enjoy the new modes and tracks in the game.”
Speaking on the partnership,
Hal Bame,
Vice President, Distributor Territories and Emerging Markets, Codemasters said,
“India
is a key growth market for us and Reliance Home Video & Games have one of
the strongest distribution networks in India. With this association, and the love of FORMULA
ONE in India, we feel this is the perfect formula for success in a market which
will have growing importance to all gaming companies in the coming years. With F1 2012’s wealth of new and exciting
features, such as Champion’s Mode, the new Austin F1 racing circuit in the USA,
Young Driver Test and more, we feel there’s never been a better game to reach
out to the millions of gamers and FORMULA ONE fans in India.”
