F1 2021 Xbox Series X|S release date
F1 2021 has an official release date of 16 July and a price tag of Ā£59.99 on the Microsoft Store.
As usual though, you can play a few days earlier if you get the Deluxe Edition! This special edition of the game comes with a few extras and three days of early access, but it does cost Ā£74.99.
F1 2021 Xbox Series X|S Graphics
This year's Formula 1 game is the first to be developed directly for the new consoles, and as a result it brings the heat with graphics and performance.
There are two visual options: Graphics and Performance. In the Graphics setting you'll get 60 fps and 4K resolution, while Performance will hit 120 fps at 1440p. You'll need a monitor capable of keeping up with those numbers, so if you only have one that taps out at 30 fps, you'll need an upgrade to see the improvements.
Of course, the Xbox Series X|S will bring those lightning quick load times to F1 2021 too. Getting you from menu to garage faster than ever.
Cross-gen play & Smart Delivery
If you don't have an Xbox Series X|S yet then don't panic.
Codemasters is making use of Xbox's Smart Delivery, so you will only have to buy the game once even if you wait a few months to get the Series X.
It will also support cross-gen online play, so lobbies won't be separated into Xbox One and Xbox X|S players which is great news.
