EA Sports has become an official partner of the fictional APXGP Team in a collaboration with F1, the upcoming film starring Brad Pitt.
As part of the collaboration, players will have the opportunity to get behind the virtual wheel of the APXGP car in six post-launch gameplay scenarios. These will be available from 30 June, 2025.
The teaser video, which was released earlier today, also gives fans a sneak peek at more of the highly anticipated F1 film soundtrack. The video from EA Sports F1 features a snippet of Ed Sheeran’s track for the film, Drive.
John Reseburg, VP, Brand & Communications for EA SPORTS, commented on the partnership in a press release:
“This partnership is a thrilling example of how EA SPORTS brings fans into the action, blurring the lines between sport, storytelling and interactive entertainment like no one else can.
“As an official APXGP team partner, EA SPORTS is part of the film’s world – but more importantly, in F1 25, players don’t just watch the story unfold, they can immerse themselves in it. This is F1 like never before.”
Players can access the APXGP chapter scenarios from F1 via pre-ordering or purchasing the EA Sports F1 25 Iconic Edition, which is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
