EA used LiDAR to model the tracks in F1 25

Engadget 26.03.2025 23:30 Codemasters' Formula 1 franchise is back for another lap. Publisher EA says the tracks in F1 2025 have a more realistic look and feel, thanks to LiDAR scanning. The new installment arrives on May 30.

Regardless, we reached out to EA to try to get more info. We'll update this story if we hear back.

And in the Braking Point story mode, Konnersport has moved up in the world and is now a highly competitive team battling for championships. But wait, "a dramatic event throws the team into chaos," so rest assured the writing team still understands the importance of using obstacles in storytelling. F1 25 launches on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC on May 30.
