Electronic Arts has announced that the next part in its F1 racing series, F1 24, will be released on May 31st. In addition, Codemasters revealed the game’s PC requirements, as well as its PC features. And yes, once again, the game will support Ray Tracing and VR on PC.
F1 24 will feature a newly innovated Driver Career mode. Moreover, it will have what Codemasters calls “EA SPORTS Dynamic Handling”. This is what the latest physics system is called in the game, aiming to give you more control over how your personal driving style impacts your car’s performance and race strategy.
The game will also have a new interactive feature, called Challenge Career. This will offer episodic competitive play with unique events and challenges. According to EA, it will allow community members to compete for high scores. Players will also be able to influence future content by voting on social media.
As said, F1 24 will have Ray Tracing on track and VR support on PC. Codemasters didn’t go into more detail about these features. So, basically, expect to see all the RT effects that were in F1 23.
The Codies have also shared the official PC system requirements. PC gamers will at least need an Intel Core i3-2130 for non-VR and an Intel Core i5-9600K for VR with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GTX 1060 or AMD RX 480. For gaming with a VR headset, you’ll at least need an NVIDIA GTX 1660Ti, an AMD RX 590 or an Intel Arc A380. As for Ray Tracing, you’ll at least need an NVIDIA RTX 2060, and AMD Radeon 6700XT or an Intel Arc A380. The ga,e will also require 100GB of free disk space.
Codemasters recommends using an Intel Core i5-9600k or AMD Ryzen 5 2600X with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA RTX 2070 or an AMD RX 6600XT. For Ray Tracing, the devs recommend an NVIDIA RTX 3070, an AMD Radeon RX 6800 or an Intel Arc A580.
Finally, the game will be using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.
Enjoy!

There are to many of these games thay should be dls’s not full games like what used to be fifa.
This is the new Fifa/PES
New? EA F1 has had an annual release since 2000 to 2003, and again from 2009 until now (back with EA since 2021).
This game is awesome, but an update would be enough.
All the previous times VR failed, at least there was some honesty about it, and the fact it failed was recognized.
Now people are pretending like VR is still going strong, even though this time it failed more spectacularly than ever, with Sony, Valve and Facebook throwing billions at VR and having 0 traction. Sony seems to actually recognise VR’s failure, and stopped all VR headset production and all VR investment.
This is not the first time Valve has no clue about the market. Valve’s SteamOS machines failed just as spectacularly as Valve’s VR headsets, and Windows handhelds and Nintendo Switch are easily outselling Valve’s Steam Decks.
For sim racing VR is awesome. Other than this, I agree with you.
Do you have some data to back-up your claim that Windows handhelds are outselling the Steam Deck?
Because everything I have seen so far suggests the complete opposite…
I’m guessing he’s counting all windows handhelds combined which is probably true.
Unfortunately, I can’t share any internal figures, but there is at least some public data available which tells another story:
For better or worse, Reddit is one of the most visited websites, thus looking at how many members a certain subreddit has is a good indicator to gauge public interest.
Here are the current numbers:

And the biggest contender, MSI Claw https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cbd4e72b222cdc511eea68b27fd341ecbd53656637051500c4f1d0e86e27765a.png
Now compare these numbers to the Steam Deck https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1fbf711d55a01fc9ae65ed9f30cc8e9212833e758d0a5fdc07f18ecdea1b926e.png
The Steam Deck is easilly outselling all of them combined, trust me…
VR tech hasn’t failed in the hardcore sim niche market where VR objectively makes the games better to play and the customers are willing to spend money for something good great.
What killed the VR was the casual market no being something to build off of but the main market, the all in one headsets became the target for every single VR game made.
Facebook totally destroyed valve in the VR market place by making VR cheap and contained but they also killed the VR core gaming market itself by making it a disposable gimmick.
Almost every single game that was released on steam VR has received downgraded patches as they released their games to target lowest end popular all-in-one oculus and other headsets. It killed Sony’s VR as well because every third party game released for it is still targeting the lowest end all-in-one headsets and they are all just ports from that.
Just play as Max and win everything 😅
eh, funny enough the game is more entertaining then the faf soap opera theater on the tracks now with sicko tranneemans driving weirdos. New Star GP FTW.
