The F1 Manager 23 trailer just launched, and it looks great. That's why, today, we're discussing what kind of specs your PC needs to run this properly. The game is coming out on July 31 and costs 55 bucks for the Standard Edition, while the Deluxe Edition is $65. The 10-dollar difference gets you 3-4 days Early Access, the Exclusive Scenarios Pack, and three exclusive race moments.
Studio "Frontier Developments" is behind F1 Manager 2023, who also made last year's entry along with other titles that might surprise you to learn came from them.
Frontier Developments also developed Stranded: Alien Dawn, The Great War: Western Front, Deliver Us Mars, Warhammer 40,000: Charos Gate, Jurassic World Evolution 2, Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, Planet Zoo, Elite Dangerous, and the list keeps going and going.
The point is that they know what they're doing, given that most of their titles have either a Very Positive or Mostly Positive score review on Steam.
What do you need to know before getting behind the wheel of this $55 game? Well, it's pretty much self-explanatory. In career mode, you take on the role of a manager (major plot twist, right?), pick a team, and start making decisions that influence every little facet, from the main factory to the brand and quality of your car's tires.
There are budgets to handle, practice rounds, qualification events, employees to manage, and everything you could think of, like staff, drivers, pit crew, cars, sponsors, and so on. You can even use real-life data from F1 live races and recreate the same race conditions.
F1 Manager 2023 aims to improve on other iterations with refinements to racing lines, overtakes and consequences, improved driver AI, rival team decision-making, and, best of all, enhanced tire temperature simulation. It's not the famous 8-contact point tire simulation from Forza Motorsport, but it's still nothing to scoff at.
The game is arriving on July 31 on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Epic Store. Now let's find out if you need a PC upgrade or not to run it on decent settings.
It would be best to have at least 8GB of RAM, an Intel i5-4590 or AMD FX-8370 CPU paired with an Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 or AMD R9 280x (3GB VRAM) GPU for the minimum system requirements.
If you want to turn it up and try hitting 60 fps (frames per second) in 1080, you'd need at least 16GB RAM, an Intel Core i7-7700 or AMD Ryzen 7 2700 processor, with a GeForce GTX 1080 or Radeon RX 580 (4GB VRAM) graphics card.
If this "click simulator" doesn't tickle your fancy, F1 23, made by EA's Codemasters, is the most hands-on approach you can get with the sport.
Codrin just loves American classics, from the 1940s and ‘50s, all the way to the muscle cars of the '60s and '70s. In his perfect world, we'll still see Hudsons and Road Runners roaming the streets for years to come (even in EV form, if that's what it takes to keep the aesthetic alive). Full profile
