F1 Manager 2022 game released as racing series returns from summer break

MANILA: The official Formula 1 management simulation game from Frontier Developments invites players to the illustrious F1 paddock. Those that pre-ordered F1 Manager 2022 digitally for the PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One get early access to the game.

It is time for fans to join the paddock as the summer break comes to a close and F1 returns to tracks and televisions around the globe. Players will assume command of their preferred F1 team in F1 Manager 2022, guiding them to victory during the official 2022 season and beyond.

As they assume the position of Team Principal, they will need to strike a balance between immediate success and long-term goals in order to become a dominant force in the most famous racing in the world.

With the help of an optional in-game player guidance system, players can get up to speed on all the essential components of their new job role before the first race of the season, regardless of how familiar they are with Formula One. This system will support players as they take their position on the pit wall throughout the opening race weekend.

Fans will witness this season's regulations shake-up mirrored in beautifully detailed cars inspired by these new rule revisions, and each circuit on the 2022 schedule has been given life. Players will be completely immersed in every exhilarating moment thanks to trackside broadcast cameras and a choice of on-board perspectives from each car. Fans may control their personal TV experience as they watch drivers compete to earn crucial championship points.

Fans will direct the advancement of their team's vehicles, drivers, headquarters, and personnel between race weekends in an effort to elevate their team to the top and establish their own legacy as one of the all-time greats. It is entirely up to them whether they decide to invest in future car development or balance resources to extract performance over the course of the current season.

Every second counts, from the green light to the checkered flag. Drivers will become more accustomed to the vehicle and the track throughout practice sessions, offering valuable feedback that will help Principals lead their engineering staff to perfect their car's setup before the crucial qualifying session.

As fans prepare to lead their team into their first race weekend, Andy Fletcher, Game Director, said: “We are delighted to lift up the garage doors and invite Formula 1 fans to step into the role of Team Principal, experiencing a hyper-realistic simulation as they take the hot seat at one of the ten 2022 F1 teams.

As passionate supporters ourselves, we’re proud of what we’ve achieved in bringing the broadcast experience to life with authentic cars, drivers and circuits, offering depth in every decision that we know players will love debating! We can’t wait to see their stories unfold, and how they take their team to glory.”
