Codemasters released the demo of F1 Race Stars and is available for download for PC and Xbox 360 users, with the release for the Playstation 3 closely following on the 13th of November.
In the demo players will experience Formula One powered-up on the F1 Race Stars Germany track in both single-player and up to four-player split-screen. On every straight, hairpin and jump, players will experience the game’s unique brand of superfast Formula One racing as they race through a Bavarian castle, accelerate on the autobahn and fly through a forest.
In the demo players can race as Jenson Button, Fernando Alonso, Sebastian Vettel or Kimi Räikkönen and compete against with other official and fictional Formula One drivers, transformed into heroic caricatures that are bursting with personality.
Games can use a wide variety of themed power-ups, from calling in Wet Weather to slow the pack, deploying DRS to speed past rivals and using a range of sneaky bubbles to trap other drivers. If their car takes damage, gamers can race through the pit lane to get back up to speed, whilst a variety of different routes, boost pads and shortcuts will all slingshot players ahead.
To mark the news, Codemasters has released a new gameplay video showcasing some of the features set to take the pinnacle of motorsport completely over the top. The trailer shows Formula one stars zooming past giant sumo robots in Japan, racing through a carnival in Brazil and dodging a Truckosaurus in the USA on unique circuits. In a super-charged sprint for the chequered flag, the trailer shows the drivers using different power-ups – including Safety Car, Teleport and DRS – to gain the advantage on their rivals and race around special KERS corners to get a speedy boost.
