Having recently joined EA Play and GamePass, and with any upcoming sequel announcement likely to be shared soon, the final EA Sports F1 24 Season Update V1.18 has been released.
Season 6 will begin on March 5th at 10am, and it’s the last ‘tailor-made’ new collection of content and events to be created by Codemasters for F1 24. When it finishes after eight weeks, previous content will reappear on rotation.
It’s highly likely we’ll hear an announcement about F1 25 soon, especially given that the real Formula One season is starting soon and celebrating the 75th anniversary of the championship. The future of the game franchise has been questioned, given that licensing agreements are scheduled to end this year, with a further two year extension if “certain performance thresholds” are met. And the cancellation the F1 Manager series before the end of the license period.
