Codemasters and F1 announce new game

F1 and Codemasters have just announced that in Autumn 2009 there will be a new F1 game.

A new generation of Formula One video games featuring all the drivers, teams and circuits from the 2009 FIA Formula One World Championship was announced on Friday by Codemasters, the developer and publisher of award-winning racing video games, under its exclusive worldwide agreement with Formula One Administration Limited.

The 2009 game will be launched for WII and PSP only. However the 2010 F1 game was announced at the some time and this will cover all major platforms.

In the official state Codemasters and F1 say “Both the Wii and PSP editions of F1 2009 have been exclusively designed to deliver the ultimate racing package for each individual format and its audience. Setting new standards for immersion and authenticity on Wii, F1 2009 will offer a variety of race modes, including a full Formula One season and individual arcade-style challenges. Customisable driver aids will be offered to individual players, so both novice and expert drivers will be able to keep their car on track. In the game’s multiplayer mode, driver aids will enable friends and families of different abilities to play together in wheel-to-wheel split screen co-operative and competitive multiplayer races.”

The trailer is online here.

The only question remaining is will the Brawns have a split diffuser?
