It will release on current-gen consoles and PC while reportedly returning to its hardcore racing sim roots. Right now, it’s looking to release sometime “around 2024.”

As for the next WRC title, which was first reported back in March, it’s coming along. Annual releases are planned for the series on consoles and PC starting from 2023 to 2027 (with Unreal Engine being used for development). Early preparations are also seemingly being made for a mobile title to release in that period.

While Codemasters is working on F1 22, F1 23 has also reportedly been in development for some time. It will reportedly be a true “next-gen” title with upgrades to the engine. Furthermore, it seems that F1 WORLD will be introduced to expand on this year’s F1 LIFE with private jets being hinted at.

Regarding Need for Speed Mobile, which had some gameplay footage leak recently, its map is reportedly based on Need for Speed Heat (though sources say there are some changes and it’s not a “direct copy and paste”). There’s no story apparently – instead, it’s an open world multiplayer game where one can encounter other racers worldwide.

Also, while there’s no word on the Burnout series, it seems that GRID may be in “hot water” following GRID Legends’ disappointing performance. As always, stay tuned for more details and official announcements in the coming months.

A Reddit user recently uploaded uploaded under a minute of gameplay footage from the mobile title, showcasing glimpses of its racing, the open world map, and its crisp visuals. In a subsequent comment on the thread, the uploader also provided additional details, including the game being built on Unreal Engine 4, which was mentioned in aforementioned job ads as well.

Additionally, it looks like the mobile title will use the same open world map 2019’s Need for Speed Heat, which takes place in Palm City, a fictional recreation of Miami. As per the user, currently only three cars are usable in the game- the McLaren F1, the Lamborghini Aventador SVJR, and the Lamborghini Gallardo. The game is said to have no story and no cop chases, while it’s handling and drift boost effects will be similar to Need for Speed Edge.

As is the case with all leaks, until such time EA provides official details on the game, it’s best to take these details with a grain of salt for now.

Of course, a new mainline Need for Speed title is also in development at Criterion for PC and consoles, though allegedly not as a cross-gen title. EA recently confirmed that the game will be out later this year.
