The official 2017 FIA Formula One World Championship game will be released for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
Apparently, the development of the new title is already in a well-advanced state as Codemasters now stated they are ready to recruit community members for their F1 2017 beta testing program.
Codemasters will select 900 beta testers which will be divided into 300 beta testers for each platform. Codemasters explained that at this time, PS4 codes can only be sent to European residents.
When interested in becoming an F1 2017 Beta tester, you will need to have or create a Codemasters forum account after which you can apply for consideration at the dedicated Beta Sign-Up webpage.

Keep in mind that the Beta test agreement means that you cannot take, share and post any screenshots or video footage or talk about the F1 2017 Beta publicly, online or otherwise.
So you will not be able to share your experiences during the Beta test period.
If you fancy helping out to make the Codemasters F1 2017 title even better than the 2016 version, make sure to fill in your application as soon as possible.

“For the first time ever F1 2017 fully integrates the classic experience into the main career mode,” said Lee Mather, Creative Director at Codemasters. “As part of your career you will be invited to race in modern day, invitational events in the different classic F1 cars throughout the season. We’re also adding to the variety in F1 2017 with the inclusion of four alternative circuit layouts, as well as numerous new gameplay types. The classic cars will also be available to play in a range of other game modes, including online multiplayer modes and time trial.”

if you pre-order or purchase ‘Day One’ copies of F1 2017, you’ll have exclusive access to the iconic 1988 McLaren MP4/4, as part of the ‘F1 2017 Special Edition.’ The McLaren MP4/4 car will be available to be purchased at a later date, and the eleven other classic cars are available in all editions of the game. The best bit is that you can pre-order on Steam right now – all you need to do is check out F1 2017’s Steam page.

Codemasters have released a new video trailer of their upcoming F1 2017 offering, showing Red Bull’s Max Verstappen in action.
The video shows Max driving the Silverstone Grand Prix Circuit, location of this weekend’s British Grand Prix.
F1 2017 will bring the current Formula One season to the PC, PS4 and Xbox One, featuring a selection of legendary Formula One cars from the past as well.
The title will be available starting August 25.
