The line-up is familiar, but the design is new. Perhaps more importantly, a 'reveal' is expected later this week.
The cover art for the upcoming EA SPORTS F1 24 game has been revealed – and it is a familiar formation.
The standard edition will once again welcome the faces of Charles Leclerc, Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris. Only this time, there is more purple. And sparks, lots of sparks.
Fun fact: this is the first time since F1 2018 that both drivers and their appropriate cars are resplendent on the game’s cover.
Back then, Hamilton was also featured, alongside Sebastian Vettel and some young whippersnapper called Max Verstappen.
Before the 2018 season, Verstappen had won three grand prix. Fast forward to now, and that tally is at a staggering 57 (at the time of writing).
Consequently, last year, the record-breaking Dutch driver had the cover of the Champions Edition to himself, something that remains true for the latest instalment.
For those wondering, the picture was taken at the 2023 Spanish Grand Prix.
The specific version includes digital items over and above the standard version including (among other items) in-game currency (Pitcoin), three days of early access, F1 World boosts and two fresh My Team Icons.
These have been confirmed as:
But, at this stage, no in-game images or gameplay have been released – it's just the purple-tinged conceptual artwork so far.
This is set to change on Thursday 18th April, when a ‘reveal trailer’ is published.
We’ll be back to cover the more pertinent details then, for now, let us know in the comments below what you’d like to see this time around, or on X: @OverTake_gg.
