Frontier has confirmed F1 Manager 23 – a sequel to last year’s F1 management game – with more information promised soon.

The short and sweet announcement confirmed the game is in development at the UK studio, although is yet to reveal more information aside from the fact it’ll be available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam and the Epic Game Store; all the same formats as the previous entry. It’ll also feature Formula 1, Formula 2 and Formula 3 races within the game.

Aside from that though, we’re left to speculate. Presumably, it’ll be looking to expand upon the features of F1 Manager 22, which included a full career mode and allowed you to manage one of a number of existing racing teams – with players in charge of a team across multiple years. They’d have to consider short term details like scheduling pit stops, pace and more – as well as longer term decisions, like drivers, staff and researching components to make the best possible cars.

Surely high on the wishlist this time around will be the addition of co-op multiplayer, as last year’s game only featured the ability to play singleplayer. Members of the F1 Manager Reddit have also voiced their desire to include the ability to create custom teams rather than be tied to the licensed teams in the game.

As it’s early days, there’s not even a release date yet – although the previous game landed around August, so we’d predict they’d be aiming for a similar release date. Hopefully, it won’t be too much longer before we hear more from Frontier. F1 Manager 23 will be available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and PC whenever it arrives.

In the meantime, EA is also gearing up for the launch of its own F1 game, with F1 23 holding a closed beta soon.
