Remember the days of physical arcades? You would waltz into an overrun back room with a pocket full of quarters and just wait to go onto your favourite cabinet. F1 is trying to bring that back, just a lot bigger.
F1 is set to open its "F1 Arcade". An "experimental venue" set to sell consumers an experience of driving F1 cars. But contrary to what you might think, this will not happen using Codemasters' games.
Motorsport Games and Studio 397 supply the motion-rig-filled venue with their platform of rFactor 2 and will allow "individual, team-based and all-venue racing formats, along with different modes for all ages and abilities."
Every user of the arcade would have their own player profile and an "experience currency".
Adam Breedan, a designer of some activity venues within London also devised the F1 Arcade.
From an FAQ on Twitter, it was said:
Or wait for one venue from the "global rollout plan" to surface in your local capital.

From an FAQ on Twitter, it was said:
- A variety of food will be served as well as drinks from a "40ft champagne bar"
- "We plan to launch Grand Prix Sessions and All Venue Race modes which are perfect for the sim racing fan!"
- "All F1 teams are represented at F1 Arcade"
- "We sprinkled a bit of F1 magic (thousands of hours of dev time) and built our own game from rFactor2's engine"
- "We’ve got an exciting global rollout plan in the works"
