Electronic Arts announced that EA Sports F1 23 players can jump into Time Trial challenges with selected all-new 2024 team cars prior to this weekend’s opening race by pre-ordering* EA Sports F1 24.

For a time-limited period, a new loyalty program rewards drivers who own any of F1 2021, F1 22, or F1 23 with a 15% discount when they pre-order the F1 24 Champions Edition.

As a bonus, players will also receive the McLaren and Alpine 2023 F1 esports liveries, which will seamlessly carry over to F1 24.

EA Sports revealed the F1 24 Standard and Champions Edition cover stars.

The F1 24 designs represent the thrill and excitement of the sport from wheel-to-wheel on-track battles to title-winning performances. 

Three-time and current World Champion, Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 driver Max Verstappen returns as cover star of the Champions Edition. The cover celebrates his continued success in the sport with a picture taken at FORMULA 1 AWS GRAN PREMIO DE ESPAÑA 2023, and represents Oracle Red Bull Racing and Max Verstappen winning the 2023 Formula One World Championship title. 

The F1 24 Standard Edition cover, available in both physical and digital versions, features three of the most recognizable faces on the grid, Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton, and McLaren’s Lando Norris.

The image conjures up memories of the game’s past, with this being the first time since 2018 that both drivers and their cars are featured.

Alongside a second wave of new season liveries coming at the end of April, players who pre-order will receive several valuable items connected directly to F1 24 at launch. The digital-exclusive Champions Edition equips drivers with two new Formula 1 Icons, 18,000 Pitcoin and an F1 World Bumper Pack featuring resources for single and multiplayer gameplay events. They will also receive up to three days of early access starting May 28, and all pre-orders come with one bonus VIP Podium Pass. Players pre-ordering the Standard Edition will receive 5,000 Pitcoin and an F1 World Starter Pack.

EA Sports F1 24 is coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC, (EA App, Epic Games Store, and Steam) on May 31, 2024.
