F1 2020 The Game (Codemasters)

Codemasters have released a new DLC for F1 2020 - as the Michael Schumacher Charity DLC hits the game from today.
  • New DLC adds various liveries, emotes and apparel to the title.
  • The Keep Fighting Foundation DLC items are available to purchase in game.
  • Update 1.07 adds various fixes and improvements to the game.

The new DLC has been made available within the game today (Monday 10th August) and can be purchased as premium content directly within F1 2020 itself.

As the new title is themed around the life and career of 7-time World Champion Michael Schumacher, with many of the German drivers cars available as part of the deluxe edition, it is fitting that Codemasters bring this new additional content to the simulation in support of the charity efforts around the former Ferrari drivers ongoing health fight.

“It was an honour for the studio to focus on Michael’s record-breaking F1 career for the F1 2020 Deluxe Schumacher Edition,” said Lee Mather, F1® Franchise Game Director at Codemasters. “We are equally proud to support the Keep Fighting Foundation. Many of our players regard Michael as the greatest of all time, and we know the exclusive items will prove incredibly popular.”

The Schumacher trailer can be viewed below:

Forgive me for saying this, as this is not a knock on Schumacher or his accomplishments...but is anyone else thinking they're cashing in on a Schumacher edition this year while they still can, considering Hamilton is very much on track to breaking all his big records in the next year or so? :unsure:

Nice to hear the DLC will support his charity though :thumbsup:
