F1 25: Paid Expansion Instead of New Release
In a surprising move, EA has decided to launch a paid expansion for F1 25 rather than a new standalone title for next year's championships. This approach raises several concerns about value for money, as players may feel pressured to pay again for what could be seen as minimal updates. The absence of a fresh game could lead to stagnation in gameplay and innovation. - Players expect yearly advancements and improvements, which may now be diluted in an expansion format. - The decision may also affect community engagement and player retention over time. While expansions can enhance existing content, this shift may not satisfy long-time fans eager for a full-fledged sequel. Overall, EA's strategy feels like a missed opportunity to reinvigorate the franchise.
