The UNLEASHED | Stake F1 Team's brand movie captures the essence of their new mission for the 2024 Formula 1 season. The team, which remains the same, is driven by a strong desire to succeed and make their mark in the sport. The video showcases their determination, passion, and commitment to excellence.

The release of the brand movie signifies the team's readiness for the upcoming season and their eagerness to compete at the highest level. It serves as a powerful statement of intent and sets the stage for an exciting and competitive season ahead.

The Creative Director of the F1 24 games from EA and Codemasters, Lee Mather, expressed openness to the idea of transitioning from a yearly release to a live service offering. While the current annual iteration with sweeping feature changes is appreciated, Mather believes there is potential for a portion of the game to be maintained and run over several years. Some live service elements are already present in the games, such as seasonal content unlocks and regular free updates. However, licensing and sponsorships currently dictate the status quo. Fans have debated the idea of F1 games going live service, with concerns about the monetization model. F1 24 is set to launch with a refocused Career mode, and the team plans three to four years in advance for future releases. While the distribution model may not change soon, the team has ideas that could work into a live service product. Mather's response of 'never say never' suggests it is not off the table.

In an interview with CharlieIntel, F1 24 Senior Creative Director Lee Mather disclosed that the F1 24 game engine will feature Codemasters’ EGO, with plans to build and improve it for the franchise’s future titles. The F1 franchise has featured Codemasters’ own EGO engine since 2009. Players have expressed concerns about gameplay restrictions caused by the EGO engine, especially after seeing graphical and feature improvements in other Codemasters-developed games. However, Mather explained that the team will continue using the EGO engine as it allows them to have their 'own tech' and do anything they want. The EGO engine is versatile and supports every platform available, allowing F1 24 to cater to a wider player base. The team has significantly changed how F1 24’s physics work using the EGO engine and plans to keep building upon it in the coming years. [2bbfac63]

Players can select their favorite driver and team in the Fanzone and earn points by playing any game mode in F1 World, completing races, and achieving extra objectives. Each Fanzone event lasts eight weeks, and players from the winning Fanzone receive rewards. The new feature is part of the major changes in F1 24, including an overhaul of the game and updates to drivers and tracks. [a7ef0631]

F1 and Apple have partnered with Warner Bros. Pictures to distribute a film worldwide next summer. The film, titled 'APEX', is being directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer. Filming has taken place at Silverstone, with actors Brad Pitt and Damson Idris driving for a fictional team called APXGP. The on-track action was filmed using modified Formula 2 cars with small Imax cameras. The film's title has divided opinions, with some writers believing it is a smart marketing move to promote the F1 brand, while others think it could alienate new audiences. The film is set to be released on Apple TV+ after its run in cinemas.
