One of the biggest changes with F1 22, other that 2022 regulation cars, is the introduction of F1 Life. F1 Life lets you experience the life of a Formula 1 driver with access to a custom lounge wherein you can dress up your character and set up your personal space. “The game introduces F1® Life, a new customisable social hub that gives players a glimpse of an F1 driver away from the track. Functioning as a Multiplayer lobby, this personal space allows players to show off their collection of supercars, fashion, accessories, and trophies, earned by completing in-game challenges, levelling up in the Podium Pass, and from the brand shop and in-game store. The eight supercars bring new gameplay challenges, such as drift and duels, and can be driven on-track in the Pirelli Hot Lap feature, replicating the early part of the race weekend,” says EA.

Other than this, F1 22 carries over the same illustrious career mode wherein you can develop as a rookie driver or a F1 Team owner. You also get access to F2 2021, multiplayer gameplay options, and the popular Splitscreen mode.

And obviously, you can drive around the F1 race tracks driving as reigning world champion Max Verstappen fighting the rest of the 19 cars on the grid. F1 22 brings VR mode for players with advanced VR headsets to completely immerse themselves into the gameplay. And yes, Miami is part of the new track roster along with the revised layouts for Australia, Spain and Abu Dhabi.
