Redwood City, Calif. – June 30, 2025 – Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) invites players to step into the world of Apple Original Films’ F1® THE MOVIE with the release of six Chapter Scenarios* available today through EA SPORTS™ F1® 25 for those who pre-ordered the Iconic Edition or purchased separately as additional content. Take the leading role in the cockpit of APXGP, as players race in six thrilling challenges inspired by the film, which recently launched in cinemas worldwide. In addition to the Chapter Scenarios, players who purchase the F1® 25 Iconic Edition or the Iconic Edition Upgrade before July 11 will also be able to play with APXGP in My Team and race as its two drivers, Sonny Hayes and Joshua Pearce, in Career Mode.**

F1® 25 brings to life F1® THE MOVIE in a unique playable experience, offering players the chance to live the movie through exclusive gameplay inspired by the film’s story and characters. Through the Chapter Scenarios, players can experience pivotal moments from the movie through intense racing scenarios set across some of the most iconic F1® circuits: Silverstone, Monza, Zandvoort, Mexico City, Spa-Francorchamps, and Abu Dhabi. Navigating dramatic weather shifts and strategic gameplay challenges, players’ abilities will define the outcome of the races. Successfully completing these scenarios unlocks Sonny Hayes’ helmet, for use in F1® World or Driver Career.

“Collaborating with Apple and Warner Bros. has enabled us to create a unique experience, allowing our players to not just watch, but live the movie,” said Gavin Cooper, Creative Director of F1 25. “The blend of cinematic film content and the interactive gameplay blurs the line between real, fictional, and virtual worlds, creating a one-of-a-kind, authentic Formula 1 moment that only EA SPORTS could deliver.”

F1® 25 also offers a deeper insight into the two APXGP drivers, showcasing their unique racing skills. Each character is assigned their Driver Rating, similar to the 2025 Championship drivers.
