F1 2016 will be the first game in the series to contain an all new career mode, it has today been revealed by Codemasters. This new career mode is more immersive than the others in that it spans over the course of ten years.
Lee Mather, principal game designer at Codemasters put it best by saying: "The new career mode sits at the heart of the game and allows gamers to create their own legend over a career that can span for up to a massive ten seasons."
"Beyond improving upon the fastest and most thrilling on-track racing experience in gaming, F1 2016 uniquely offers the drama and vehicle development that goes on behind the scenes." Mather went on to say. "A rich car upgrade system is fully integrated into a new and deep practice development programme which mirrors the tests carried out by the teams in real life."
F1 2016 looks like it will be a massive step forward for the game, including a number of new features that help to make it more immersive than ever before. The campaign mode will have players choose an avatar, and make a number of decisions during their career, including having the option to change teams.
This game also includes the iconic Safety Car and Virtual Safety Car, one of the things that the sport is known for, thus adding a little more realism to the game.
We aren't sure of a release date for the game as yet, but we can expect to see more details in the coming months. In the meantime, check out the new screens that landed alongside the announcement.
