F1 25 to Receive Six Post-Launch Gameplay Scenarios Inspired by F1 The Movie

EA has shared more about its partnership with Apple Original Films’ upcoming F1 movie, set to hit theaters this June. In EA Sports F1 25, fans will get the chance to drive the APXGP team car from the film through six post-launch scenarios starting June 30, all based on moments from the movie. EA Sports is also an official partner of the fictional APXGP team, with branding appearing on the car and race suits featured in the film.

The in-game scenarios let players take on challenges based on key moments from F1 The Movie, combining cinematic scenes with on-track action. It all kicks off with an intro at Silverstone, available in both the Standard and Iconic editions of F1 25. From there, the action ramps up with race weekend events at Monza, Zandvoort, Mexico and Spa, each offering different objectives depending on the driver. The final scenario lines up with the season finale in Abu Dhabi.

“This partnership is a thrilling example of how EA SPORTS brings fans into the action, blurring the lines between sport, storytelling and interactive entertainment like no one else can,” said John Reseburg, VP, Brand & Communications for EA SPORTS. “As an official APXGP team partner, EA SPORTS is part of the film’s world – but more importantly, in F1 25, players don’t just watch the story unfold, they can immerse themselves in it. This is F1 like never before.”

Players who pick up or pre-order the EA Sports F1 25 Iconic Edition on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S or PC will get access to the APXGP chapter scenarios from F1 The Movie. Those with the Standard Edition can still get the content by grabbing a DLC pack at launch. Anyone who owns F1 23 or F1 24 can take advantage of a 15 percent discount on the Iconic Edition when they pre-order. Starting May 27, EA Play members can try out a 5-hour trial, get a monthly XP boost and save on digital purchases like PitCoin, the full game and DLC.

The F1 25 Iconic Edition will be available for early access on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC starting May 27, while the Standard Edition launches worldwide on May 30.
