Newsbrief: As part of
Codemasters' switch to purely racing games earlier this year, the company has now announced a new spin on its
F1 Racing franchise, with a more casual, arcade approach.
F1 Race Stars, due for release on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Windows PC later this year, will feature over-the-top race tracks that feature loop-the-loops, elevated hairpins and more arcade-style elements that are a far cry from the realistic racing nature of the regular
F1 series.
The game will be released via the new Codemasters Racing label during the holiday season.
Dirt Showdown was the first title to be published through the new label earlier this year.
