My only knock on the mode is that it pushes forward with its own narrative regardless of what you do as a player. The mode shifts in an unexpected direction about halfway through, and I was kept guessing about the end of the story throughout. Their ire for each other is egged on by nemesis Devon Butler, who is suitably slimy in the mode. As an upstart rookie, Jackson and Akkerman have some early run-ins on the track and can’t quite seem to click. Off the track, the story is interesting enough, and would make a worthy addition to Netflix’s Drive to Survive.

The on-track action is generally limited to scenarios - catch up to your teammate in 5 laps beat a certain driver nab a podium in the rain - and ultimately serves as a great introduction to driving in the F1 series. The big new mode that the team touted this year was the story mode, “Braking Point,” which sees you follow rookie driver Aiden Jackson and his veteran teammate Casper Akkerman through two seasons of Formula 1.
F1 2021 XBOX ONE SERIES
This exhilarating gameplay is what drew me to the F1 series years ago, and the on-track action is as good as ever in F1 2021, which is Codemasters’ first F1 game since being purchased by Electronic Arts.Īll-in-all, the acquisition seems to have helped the game in the presentation department - and surely hasn’t hurt it anywhere. Over the next 26 laps, I mowed down the competition to eventually finish in third place. I finally pit, serve my penalty, change my front wing and come back out a good 20 seconds behind the last place car. This further damages my car and nets me a 5 second penalty, as well as bringing out a virtual safety car. Two laps later, Valterri Bottas finally edges past me and in the commotion, I collide with Daniel Ricciardo. Instead of pitting right away, I try to soldier on, losing a couple seconds a lap to Max, but holding the field at bay. Max Verstappen takes the opportunity to jump into the lead. I get wheelspin off the line and am instantly surrounded by Mercedes sandwiched through a turn, I clip my nose on Lewis Hamilton’s tire, damaging the front end and sending the defending champion down the field. Starting from pole position in the opening race of the season, I’ve got high hopes for the ensuing 29 laps around Bahrain’s circuit.
