Four levels of difficulty ensure that the game is challenging to the most hard-core gamer, yet accessible to Formula One fans new to the videogame experience. Providing a completely immersive gameplay experience, yet still offering pick-up-and-play accessibility, Formula One 04 allows players to participate in all the action of the Formula One season - 18 races across four continents and sixteen countries, selecting from the 10 official teams and 20 drivers.
In addition to playing as their favourite driver, Formula One 04 now allows gamers to race as themselves, with their name lined up on the starting grid next to the most skilled racing drivers in the world.
A full simulation Career mode enables aspiring racing drivers to experience thrill of progressing through Championship seasons, beginning with offers from the teams at the back of the grid. Success on the track will attract the interest of more successful teams, while a poor performance may result in the player being fired!
Formula One 04 will also offer the unique opportunity for players to set the fastest time in a time trail and race against ghost cars to achieve the best time, in an all new online mode.
