On May 30, 2025, F1 25 will be released by the official racing game series for this year’s Formula 1. The Story Mode returns with Braking Point 3. Fans of the series who want to get hot with the new cars and paint schemes, as well as new driver and team combinations on the routes, can expect a lower purchase price. The third part of the tragedy
The story mode introduced with F1 2021 continues with every second edition of the annual official racing game for Formula 1. After dealing with F1 23’s Braking Point 2, the story had to pause in F1 24. In F1 25, the story is now continued with Braking Point 3. In this story mode, which is structured like a documentary series, the player drove entire or parts of scripted races in the past and had to achieve various goals over the course of the race, for example, ending up in a certain location. This was accompanied by all sorts of drama, disputes, and action on and off the route.
Once again, the focus should be on the Konnen sports team, which “fell into chaos after a dramatic event.” Also part of the game is the My Team mode, in which players can manage their own team and also sit behind the wheel. During April 2025, Codemasters plans to showcase the game’s new features and improvements with several in-depth videos.
F1 25 is cheaper than its predecessor
F1 25 will officially be released on May 30, 2025, for PC on the Steam store, the Epic Games store, and the EA app, as well as for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S | X. The predecessor was also released for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Hardware requirements are unchanged.
There are almost no changes to the hardware requirements from previous games. Only older processors such as the AMD FX 4300 and Intel Core i3-2130 are no longer sufficient at the minimum. Neither requirement specifies target resolution, quality levels, or achievable frame rates. 100GB of hard drive memory is sufficient in both cases. 8GB of RAM or 16GB of RAM do not require a lot of memory.
System Requirements for F1 25 Minimum Processor Requirements: Intel Core i5-6400 / Core i5-9600K (VR)
AMD Ryzen 3 1200 / Ryzen 5 2600x (VR) Intel Core i5-9600K

At least an Intel Core i5-6400 and an AMD Ryzen 3 1200 are now required as processors. If VR is involved, the minimum requirement doesn’t differ from the recommended hardware; it should be an AMD Ryzen 5 2600X or an Intel Core i5-9600K. As a graphics card, a GTX 1060 with 6 GB VRAM or a GTX 1660 TI for VR mode should be sufficient. The RX 570 and RX 590 should still be directed towards AMD. Turing or RDNA2 architecture graphics cards are only required for ray tracing, namely the RTX 3070 or RX 6800.
VR support is still available for various VR headsets, including the Meta Quest 2 and 3, the Oculus Rift S, and the HTC Vive Pro.
