The story mode Braking Point in F1 2021 received praise for its engaging narrative structure and character dynamics, with several critics highlighting its potential as a compelling entry in the series. IGN Spain noted its "interesting premise" of following Aiden Jackson’s journey in F1, while COGconnected lauded it as "surprisingly well written and acted," drawing players into the sport through personal stories. GameSpew and Wccftech appreciated its emotional depth and cinematic quality, with the latter calling it a "significant improvement over previous attempts at storytelling." The mode’s focus on rivalries, such as between rookie Aiden Jackson and veteran Casper Akkerman, was seen as a strong foundation, with some critics like GameGrin and TheXboxHub praising its immersive cutscenes and character interactions. Additionally, the narrative’s ability to blend drama with racing mechanics, as noted by PlaySense and TierraGamer, added a fresh layer of engagement for fans of the franchise. However, many critics criticized Braking Point for its reliance on clichés, lack of depth, and formulaic storytelling. IGN Spain and PC Invasion called out "clichéd dialogue" and "cringe-worthy plot twists," while LevelUp and GamingBolt described it as a simplistic, unengaging tutorial with "underwhelming writing." The narrative’s predictability was a recurring issue, with PlaySense calling it "predictable and somewhat cheesy" and Xbox Tavern noting that while characters were well-written, the story itself felt shallow. Critics like GameOver.gr and Eurogamer Italy highlighted its brevity and lack of player agency, arguing that the linear structure limited immersion. Even positive reviews acknowledged flaws: IGN and TheXboxHub pointed out the rushed ending and minimal impact from player performance, while Malditos Nerds noted the story’s "lack of responsiveness to player choices." These critiques underscored a general sense that the mode prioritized style over substance. Overall, the consensus on Braking Point was mixed but leaned toward appreciation for its ambition as a narrative experiment. While many critics, including Wccftech and GameCritics, acknowledged its improvements over previous F1 story modes, others like IGN Spain and PC Invasion felt it fell short of delivering a truly memorable experience. The mode was seen as a solid foundation for future developments, with Vandal and TheXboxHub noting its potential for growth. Despite criticisms of clichés and lack of depth, the story’s emotional beats and character-driven moments—such as the rivalry between Jackson and Devon Butler (GameGrin) or the soap opera-like drama (Metro GameCentral)—resonated with some players. Ultimately, Braking Point was viewed as a worthwhile addition to F1 2021, even if it didn’t fully live up to its narrative potential.

Based on analyzing reviews that specifically scored or critiqued the gameplay mechanics.

The gameplay of F1 2021 is widely praised for its refined mechanics, accessibility, and depth, with many critics highlighting its improvements over previous iterations. Reviewers like IGN (PS5) and Eurogamer Italy (PC) lauded the game’s realistic physics model and enhanced tire management, which cater to both casual and hardcore players. The inclusion of new modes such as the two-player career mode (PlaySense, Wccftech) and improved AI behavior (Vandal, Impulsegamer) added variety and engagement. Screen Rant (PS5) noted the tactical emphasis on corner exits, while GameStar (PC) praised the cooperative career mode and damage model. The game’s ability to balance simulation with accessibility was a recurring highlight, as seen in Everyeye.it’s praise for its "well-executed" blend of complexity and approachability. Additionally, IGN (Xbox Series X) and CGMagazine (PC) emphasized the customizable difficulty settings and online multiplayer features, which broadened the game’s appeal. However, several critics pointed to specific drawbacks that slightly tarnished the experience. Hardcore Gamer (PS5) criticized the removal of key features and issues with AI behavior, while PC Invasion (PC) found the Braking Point mode overly rigid in its progression system. Malditos Nerds (PC) noted the unadjustable difficulty in this mode, which could frustrate players, and Game Debate (PC) mentioned the absence of qualifying sessions and handling changes that alienated some fans. GameCritics (PS4) highlighted increased curb difficulty as a challenge for newcomers, while TheSixthAxis (PS5) warned that the game’s "error intolerant" nature might require driver aids for optimal play. These issues, though not universal, underscored areas where the game fell short of perfection despite its overall strengths. Despite these criticisms, the majority of reviewers regarded F1 2021’s gameplay as a strong evolution of the series. Screen Rant (PS5) and Stevivor (PC) emphasized its similarity to the highly acclaimed F1 2020, framing it as a positive continuity, while SpazioGames (PC) and Gfinity (Xbox Series X) praised its realistic driving mechanics and dynamic AI. Even critics like Hardcore Gamer acknowledged improvements in Career and My Team modes, reflecting a broader consensus that the game’s positives outweighed its flaws. With its mix of innovation, accessibility, and simulation depth, F1 2021 solidified its reputation as a standout entry in the franchise, satisfying both longtime fans and newcomers.

The graphics and visual design of F1 2021 received widespread praise for their technical advancements and immersion, particularly on next-generation consoles. Critics like IGN and IGN Japan highlighted it as the best-looking F1 game to date, noting improved car models, trackside details, and realistic damage effects. The inclusion of ray tracing, as emphasized by MGG Spain and Malditos Nerds, added a layer of visual realism, especially in reflections and lighting. CGMagazine commended the "stunning visuals" and "inch-perfect recreation of tracks," while COGconnected and TheXboxHub praised the meticulous attention to real-world F1 circuits and dynamic weather effects. On PC, PC Gamer noted the game's ability to run smoothly on modest hardware with 4K resolution options, and GameGrin appreciated the atmospheric feel of night races with bloom effects from stadium lights. These positives underscored the game’s commitment to visual fidelity and technical polish. However, several critics pointed out shortcomings, particularly in areas where next-gen potential was underutilized. Jeuxvideo.com and Impulsegamer criticized the graphics as "disappointing for a next-gen title," with minimal improvements over previous iterations and issues like frame rate drops during cutscenes or slow-motion sequences. Vandal noted that visuals felt "somewhat stagnant," while PlaySense highlighted inconsistencies, such as high-quality car models contrasted with lower-resolution background details. Game Debate observed little change from F1 2020, and TheSixthAxis remarked on the lack of significant visual evolution compared to earlier entries. Additionally, Push Square and Finger Guns pointed out underwhelming character models in certain scenarios, while GameSpew mentioned screen-tearing issues. These critiques suggested that while F1 2021 delivered solid visuals, it fell short of fully leveraging the capabilities of modern hardware. Overall, the consensus leaned toward a balanced assessment: while F1 2021 showcased impressive technical achievements and next-gen optimizations, many reviewers felt it lacked groundbreaking innovation. IGN and COGconnected celebrated its visual richness, but others like Jeuxvideo.com and Impulsegamer argued that the improvements were incremental rather than transformative. The game’s reliance on the Ego Engine, praised by IGN Italia, and its ability to run smoothly on various platforms, as noted by PC Games, highlighted its accessibility, yet some critics, such as MGG Spain and GamePro Germany, felt the differences from previous titles were minimal. Despite mixed reactions, the game’s visual design was broadly seen as a step forward for the series, even if it didn’t fully redefine expectations for next-gen racing games.

Music and Sound Design

TL;DR

F1 2021’s sound design is hailed for its hyper-realistic engine roars, immersive radio chatter, and cinematic audio that nails Formula 1’s essence—yet repetitive commentary, jarring voice acting (especially in non-English locales), and generic collision effects undermine the experience, proving even the best racing games can stumble on sound.

The sound design of F1 2021 receives widespread acclaim for its authenticity and immersive qualities, particularly in engine sounds and car audio. Critics like IGN Japan highlight the "powerful engine sounds that enhance immersion," while Hardcore Gamer praises the "top-notch" and "authentic engine sounds and radio communication." Cultured Vultures notes the game's "more variety in engine noises and screeching tires," emphasizing its ability to immerse players in the F1 experience. The COGconnected and MondoXbox reviews commend the realistic portrayal of power units, with the latter stating they "sound very similar to their real-life counterparts." Additionally, SomosXbox appreciates the "localized voice acting" and cinematic quality, while PlayStation LifeStyle and Xbox Achievements acknowledge the game's ability to capture the essence of Formula racing through its audio. These positives collectively underscore a strong foundation in sound design that aligns with the expectations of F1 enthusiasts. However, several critics point to notable shortcomings, particularly in voice acting, commentary, and collision effects. Hobby Consolas and PlayStation Country criticize the "repetitive" and "unnatural" commentary, while MGG Spain and PlaySense highlight subpar or inconsistent voice acting, especially in non-English languages like Dutch and Italian. Hardcore Gamer and PlayStation Universe note that collision sounds remain "generic" or underdeveloped, detracting from the overall experience. TheGamer mentions confusion caused by the team leader's voice, and Impulsegamer criticizes "disjointed" voice acting that disrupts immersion. Additionally, IGN Italia points to issues with Italian localization, and PC Games notes amateurish German voice acting. These critiques reveal recurring concerns about the game’s audio elements beyond its core engine sounds. Despite these criticisms, the overall consensus among reviewers is overwhelmingly positive, with most agreeing that F1 2021 delivers a significant improvement in sound design compared to previous entries. While IGN and COGconnected acknowledge the absence of classic cars as a minor drawback, they praise the "richness" added by transmission whine and improved fidelity. The game’s engine sounds are consistently lauded for their realism, with GameGrin and PC Invasion noting their ability to "keep players engaged." Though voice acting and commentary face criticism, many reviewers, such as Xbox Achievements and Wccftech, recognize the audio as a key contributor to immersion. The mixed reception reflects a game that excels in core sound design but struggles with secondary elements, yet remains a standout title for its genre.

The voice acting in F1 2021 receives generally positive feedback from several critics, particularly for its role in enhancing storytelling and immersion. IGN (PS5) praises the "decent and authentic" cutscene dialogue, while GamePro Germany highlights the immersive effect of German team calls during story mode. Hardcore Gamer and Hobby Consolas commend the quality of voice acting in Braking Point, with the former noting it "enhances the narrative experience" and the latter acknowledging its "impressive production quality." TheXboxHub and TierraGamer emphasize that character interactions in the story mode add depth, while Eurogamer Italy and Gameblog.fr praise the cutscenes for their authenticity. Cubed3 specifically highlights Devon Butler’s return as a standout element, and PlayStation LifeStyle notes that cinematic mode "brings the story to life." These critiques underscore the voice acting’s effectiveness in elevating narrative engagement when executed well. However, several critics point out significant flaws, particularly in technical polish and regional localization. IGN Spain criticizes the "poor dialogue" for detracting from immersion, while Everyeye.it highlights issues with Italian lip-syncing, calling it "lacking polish." Forbes notes the absence of human speech during races, and MGG Spain describes Braking Point’s voice acting as "poorly executed." PlaySense criticizes the Dutch version for "lack of emotion," recommending English instead, while GamingBolt points to uneven lip-syncing. IGN Italia lambasts the Italian translation for poor synchronization, and Generación Xbox calls commentary voices "outdated." Additionally, LevelUp and Impulsegamer flag issues like "strange movements" and "inconsistent delivery," respectively, suggesting that technical shortcomings undermine the voice acting’s potential. Overall, the consensus reflects a mixed reception, with many critics acknowledging the voice acting’s strengths in storytelling while highlighting persistent technical and regional flaws. Positive reviews often focus on narrative immersion (e.g., IGN, TheXboxHub) and specific character performances (e.g., Cubed3), whereas negative critiques emphasize poor synchronization (Everyeye.it, IGN Italia), limited dialogue (Impulsegamer), and inconsistent localization (PlaySense, GamingBolt). Despite these issues, the voice acting is generally seen as a key component of F1 2021’s storytelling, with its quality varying significantly across platforms and languages. The game’s success in this area hinges on the balance between strong performances and technical execution, which remains uneven but not entirely lacking in impact.

The technical performance of F1 2021 received largely positive feedback across platforms, with notable strengths in optimization and stability. On PS4, reviewers like IGN Japan and Metro GameCentral praised its cross-generation compatibility, noting minimal issues despite some frame drops at high settings. For PS5, critics such as GameOver.gr, GamePro Germany, and PlayStation LifeStyle highlighted smooth performance, reduced loading times, and stable frame rates, with IGN Spain emphasizing the game’s adherence to franchise-quality standards. On Xbox Series X, COGconnected and GamingBolt commended near-instant load times and minimal bugs, while Generación Xbox appreciated graphical flexibility. The PC version also shone, with AusGamers and PC Gamer praising buttery-smooth 60fps performance, DLSS support, and high frame rates, though some noted minor issues like Ray Tracing trade-offs. Overall, next-gen consoles (PS5/Xbox Series X) and PC were lauded for their technical polish, with critics like GameStar and SpazioGames highlighting adaptive optimizations and advanced features. However, technical shortcomings were reported across platforms. On PS4, Gamer.nl criticized AI behavior and safety car mechanics, while IGN Japan noted frame drops in high settings. For PS5, Everyeye.it and GameSpew mentioned screen tearing and ray tracing issues, and Jeuxvideo.com criticized frame rate inconsistencies. Xbox Series X saw minor concerns like AI imperfections (MGG Spain) and cutscene tearing (Xbox Achievements). On PC, NME and PC GamesN reported crashes and bugs, while Vandal noted ghosting issues, and Shacknews warned of performance drops with Ray Tracing enabled. Even the Xbox One version, as reviewed by LevelUp, faced some launch-day hiccups despite generally smooth gameplay. These issues, though varied in severity, underscored the game’s technical challenges, particularly on older hardware or during specific scenarios like cutscenes and multiplayer. The overall consensus among critics was that F1 2021 delivered strong technical performance, especially on next-gen consoles and PC, with most platforms benefiting from improved optimization and stability. While PS5 and Xbox Series X received widespread praise for their seamless experience—highlighted by IGN Spain’s “quality expected from the franchise” and PlayStation LifeStyle’s “no noticeable issues”—PS4 and older systems faced more mixed feedback. Critics like GameCritics (PS4) and WellPlayed (PS5) noted no major issues, but others, such as Jeuxvideo.com (PC/PS5) and Malditos Nerds (PC), pointed to persistent glitches or graphical limitations. Despite these drawbacks, the game’s technical foundation was seen as solid overall, with many reviewers acknowledging EA and Codemasters’ efforts to refine the F1 series while addressing platform-specific quirks. The balance of praise for performance against minor flaws suggests a generally positive reception, though some critics felt the technical polish could have been more consistent across all systems.

Replay Value

TL;DR

F1 2021 offers robust replay value through diverse modes like two-player careers, My Team, and customization, but repetitive gameplay, underwhelming storylines (e.g., Braking Point), and lack of innovation dilute its appeal. While fan favorites like progression systems and multiplayer flexibility keep it engaging, newcomers may find it stale without fresh content. A solid entry for enthusiasts, but not a revolution.

The majority of reviewers highlight F1 2021’s strong replay value through its diverse gameplay modes and customization options. Multiple critics emphasize the inclusion of two-player career modes, such as Cubed3, who notes that this feature adds “more options for players,” while PC Invasion and TheXboxHub praise the cooperative elements and multiplayer flexibility. Customization is another key positive: CGMagazine highlights car, driver, and podium emote customization, alongside challenge-based progression systems, while GameGrin points to features like decal choices and research point adjustments. Additionally, modes like My Team (PC Gamer, IGN) and Career modes (Xbox Achievements, Push Square) are frequently cited as engaging long-term experiences. The ability to simulate real-world 2021 season progress (PlayStation LifeStyle) and the inclusion of weekly challenges (MGG Spain) further enhance variety, making the game appealing to both casual and competitive players. However, several critics point out limitations that could reduce replayability. PC Invasion and TheXboxHub specifically criticize the Braking Point mode as “uninspired” and lacking in depth, with the latter noting its short length diminishes its appeal. Others, like Malditos Nerds and PlaySense, argue that the game’s lack of significant new content compared to previous entries may deter returning players. Repetitiveness is another recurring issue: IGN (multiple mentions) and Hardcore Gamer note that while modes are engaging, some aspects feel repetitive over time. Additionally, the microtransactions mentioned by CGMagazine and the potential for “stale” elements (Hobby Consolas) suggest that the game’s longevity might be constrained by its reliance on familiar mechanics without substantial innovation. Overall, critics generally agree that F1 2021 offers solid replay value, particularly for fans of the series or racing enthusiasts. The combination of multiplayer modes, customization, and career progression (as noted by Impulsegamer, GameStar, and Xbox Achievements) creates a robust foundation for repeated play. However, concerns about repetitive gameplay, underwhelming story modes like Braking Point (PC Invasion, TheXboxHub), and the absence of groundbreaking features (Malditos Nerds, PlaySense) temper this enthusiasm. While most reviewers acknowledge that the game’s strengths—such as its two-player career mode (Cubed3, Push Square) and My Team mechanics (PC Gamer, IGN)—provide ample content for long-term engagement, they also recognize that its appeal may be limited to players who prioritize simulation depth over narrative or innovation. The consensus leans toward a balanced view: F1 2021 is rewarding for dedicated fans but may struggle to retain those seeking significant new experiences.

Based on analyzing all available reviews that scored and critiqued the game.

The overall sentiment toward F1 2021 is largely positive, with critics praising its refined gameplay, accessibility, and narrative innovations. Many highlight the game’s improved driving mechanics, such as PC Invasion’s acknowledgment of an “amazing racing experience” and Cultured Vultures’ praise for its “best-looking and sounding Formula 1 game from Codemasters.” The story mode, particularly the Braking Point campaign, receives acclaim for its engaging narrative and character development, with IGN noting it as a “well-executed package” that successfully introduces new content. Additionally, TheXboxHub lauds it as the “finest F1 racing game to date,” while COGconnected appreciates its accessibility for players of all skill levels. The inclusion of co-op modes and improved multiplayer options also stands out, with GameGrin calling it a “smashing entry” despite development challenges. However, several critics point to notable shortcomings that temper the enthusiasm. Issues like AI inconsistencies (as noted by Hardcore Gamer), technical limitations on next-gen consoles (e.g., Jeuxvideo.com and Eurogamer Italy), and graphical and voice acting flaws (mentioned by Impulsegamer and PlaySense) are recurring complaints. The Braking Point story mode, while praised for its ambition, is criticized for underdeveloped characters and technical execution issues (e.g., PC Invasion and Jeuxvideo.com). Other critiques include a lack of innovation, with GameOver.gr pointing to “missing historical content” and Meristation noting the game “plays it safe.” Additionally, some argue that the title feels like a minor upgrade from F1 2020, as highlighted by Game Debate and PC Invasion, who suggest it may not justify purchase for existing fans. Despite these criticisms, the consensus among critics is that F1 2021 is a strong, well-rounded entry in the series that successfully balances simulation depth with accessibility. While Xbox Tavern acknowledges its flaws, they call it an “exceptional game” that will “keep F1 fans happy,” and God is a Geek hails it as a “masterpiece of modern racing.” The game’s improvements in gameplay, visuals, and narrative—though not without imperfections—are seen as significant steps forward. Most reviewers agree it’s a must-buy for dedicated fans, with Metro GameCentral calling it a “must-buy for hardcore F1 fans” and Stevivor recommending it to “racing game enthusiasts.” While some critics note that it falls short of revolutionary changes, the overall verdict leans heavily toward appreciation for its polish and dedication to the franchise.

TL;DR

A polished, accessible F1 experience with stellar visuals, refined gameplay, and an engaging story mode, though plagued by AI quirks, technical hiccups, and undercooked narrative elements—still a standout for fans despite its flaws.
