Part of me hopes that perhaps Codies are looking to switch engines in the not too distant future as they’ve already said they’re utilising Unreal Engine for their upcoming WRC/EA Sports Rally games in a job advert on their website.
I suppose if that release goes well there’s no way they won’t then move f1 23 onto the new engine. I agree that it is definitely needed because the current engine is starting to get a little tedious

@Meza994Yeh I heard that they had two teams developing the games, but surely that’s mainly coders and programmers though? And surely they all work at the same studio in Birmingham.
I could be wrong but I can’t imagine them only working with one half of the team to just work on every second game, maybe putting in more work sure, but not entirely.
Even F1 2020 had visual changes over F1 2019, different tree assets, a lighter appearance, plus the visual upgrade from F1 2017 to F1 2018 was probably the biggest jump we saw (bar the exception of the night races that looked very poor in that game). I get what you’re saying but I think I was hoping for just a few changes here and there, nothing major, but from the screenshots they’ve released the visuals are 100% identical in every way shape and form, flaws and all, to F1 2021.

The two-year development cycle is still quite a new thing, and I also doubt that it includes everyone. Most likely the teams overlap quite a bit, so that resources can be transferred to each project depending on the demand
In terms of the engine, I don't need yet another poorly running Unreal Engine game in my life please 😅
