Codemasters announces F1 Race Stars

Codemasters has today announced that F1 Race Stars, a fast-to-the-fun arcade racing game featuring official Formula One cars, teams and circuits, will be available for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC this November.

F1 Race Stars is a cartoon style, light-hearted take on the sport, which features super-fast racing and a range of power-ups for players to collect. In the game players will take a world tour of the iconic Formula One locations, including Monaco, Silverstone and the new Circuit of Americas in Austin, Texas, recreated as fantastical racing circuits built for speed and wheel-to-wheel competition.

F1 Race Stars will deliver 4-player split-screen racing and 12-player competition alongside an extensive career mode featuring a number of Championships.

Chris Gray, Senior Producer, F1 Race Stars, said: “We’re really excited to bring the whole cast of Formula One into a fun new world of racing. We’ve really let our Art and Design teams off the leash to bring F1 stars’ personalities alive in a new way and create a game where racing fans of all ages can jump into all-action solo, split-screen and online multiplayer races."

"It’s the game we’ve wanted to create for a long time and, building on our strong relationship with Formula One Management Limited, we’re now able to bring Codemasters’ long-standing expertise in track design and AI to create a Formula One racing experience quite unlike any other.”
