F1 25 Reviews
It's racing season again, and that means a new F1 game from EA and Codemasters. F1 25 has some truly incredible moments, and lays some important building
An experience which promises much and delivers on some, F1 25 is without doubt a worthy entry but the feeling is its innovations could be greater.
It’s a pity that ditching last generation of consoles did not manifest a substantial leap in quality (that many hoped for). Fortunately F1 25 is a better game than F1 24 in every way, with big emphasis on an improved driving model and path tracing on PCs. Still, a real revolution should arrive in the 2026 season.

F1 25 has built on last year's entry into the franchise and brought some genuine updates, both to the visuals and to the various modes in the game. I appreciate the changes made to My Team mode as a fan of both the sport and management games in general; and even though I'm overall somewhat lukewarm to Braking Point as a feature, I appreciate what Codemasters are trying to do with it.
Thanks to the inclusion of some cut-scenes created through motion capture , the involvement is particularly satisfying – and we point out that the mode is easily playable by both veteran pilots and younger users.

EA Sports F1 25 is much better than last year's installment, and Codemasters addressed key points to ensure its fans weren't disappointed. Braking Point 3 and My Team 2.0 are high-quality offerings that warrant recommending the game to fans of the competition and those looking to immerse themselves in its world. The handling improvements, despite their rough edges that will surely be addressed in future updates, are a decent sim cadence, as is the audio-visual section. Despite the less than favorable environment, this is a good F1 installment, and it will undoubtedly hold its own throughout the season.

F1 25 represents a nice evolutionary step forward in the series, it's not a leap, but a step in the right direction - it expands the modes to include links to the upcoming film, adapts My Team to a management form, and most importantly improves the driving physics.

EA sports F1 25 features the usual iterative improvements when it comes to visuals and physics, and LIDAR technology has been used to make a number of tracks as accurate as can be. But it's the return of Braking Point as well as a substantial overhaul of My Team that really makes this an impressive package, and a must-have for both casual and ardent F1 fans.
Compared to the previous game in the franchise, EA SPORTS F1 25 takes few risks in terms of the driving itself because it knows it has already achieved a very high level of excellence and stability. With some substantial changes to two of its main game modes and subtle improvements to the visuals, it is the most faithful and entertaining game for fans of the category, valuing the most ardent followers without giving up on new enthusiasts.

F1 25 is everything a Formula 1 fan could wish for: for the 2025 season, Codemasters' attention has focused on the return of Braking Point 3 and the Scuderia Career, the 2.0 evolution of the old My Team.

The new EA Sports F1 25 will not revolutionize neither the genre nor the saga, being as continuous as it is, but it has polished certain aspects (others not) and added interesting options to team management and multiplayer. LiDAR technology realli is quite impressive.

Ultimately, F1 25 delivers on many of its promises: laser-scanned tracks elevate visual authenticity, enhanced handling provides satisfying feedback, and My Team 2.0 deepens management engagement. AI improvements and reverse circuits offer new experiences, although some features still feel underexplored.
EA Sports F1 25 raises the bar to become arguably one of the best entries in the series to date, finally striking a balance between the spirit of Formula 1 and the media spectacle that surrounds it.

F1 25 feels like a real step up, not just a new number on the box. With immersive career progression and stunning next-gen visuals, it’s a must-play for returning fans. It’s also perhaps the ideal starting point for newcomers looking to jump into the cockpit. F1 25 puts you in control, delivering authentic, rewarding race experiences—whether chasing pole or avoiding the gravel. Due to all of this, I am giving F1 25 the Thumb Culture Gold Award.
F1 25 is once again an excellent driving game, but at the same time provides very modest evolution from previous installments. Braking Point storymode is fun but short lived appetite like always. My Team, Career Mode and F1 World can offer nearly endless hours worth of content for hardcore F1 enthustiasts, if their stomachs aren't already full from previous years.

Codemasters are operating at peak performance this time. This feels like a next-generation release through and through. F1 25 is absolutely brimming with feature after feature of high quality, the driving model is stellar, and is the best it’s ever looked. F1 25 is the reason you get into racing simulation games.
F1 25 cements Codemasters as the absolute reference for ensuring the existence of the official Formula 1 game, offering a technical, immersive and accessible experience like few others in the genre. The game not only refines the already established foundations of the franchise, but also dares to incorporate innovations that increase realism and player engagement.

F1 25 represents the most complete and refined version of the franchise to date. The title succeeds in combining simulative fidelity and accessibility, with plenty of content to satisfy both hardcore Formula 1 fans and novices. Technical improvements, new modes and the graphical leap made thanks to the exclusive focus on next-gen (and PC) make the game a true benchmark for Formula 1 fans. Some shortcomings - such as historical content or VR on consoles - weigh heavily, but do not compromise the overall judgment.

It's always difficult for developers to make a very good game even better, which is why it's clear that the improvements in EA Sports F1 25 compared to its predecessor are in the details. The most obvious improvements are, of course, the new, thoroughly successful edition of “Braking Point,” which once again shines with its outstanding presentation, and the revamped My Team mode, which now offers even more possibilities and also turns up the heat a bit in terms of presentation. The reverse-designed tracks and the sticker editor are also appealing and round out the overall package. Added to this is a largely outstanding graphic display, which is actually even a touch prettier than last year. The driving experience was already really good and could hardly be improved upon, and the same applies to the overall very well-designed career mode. In the end, it remains to be said that F1 25 is a first-class racing game that brings some useful innovations and additions, making last year's overall package even more attractive. Whether the improvements are enough for owners of last year's edition to treat themselves to the latest edition is ultimately up to each individual to decide.

EA SPORTS F1 25 is the kind of game that ultimately gets a lot more right than it gets wrong. And honestly, when it gets it right, it gets it right. The return of Braking Point, for example, with more narrative and strategic decisions, is an excellent addition to the game.
