F1 2020
There wasn't much confirmed about F1 2020 until last month's reveal trailer. We loved F1 2019 but Codemasters can't rest on their laurels for 2020 edition.
Codies seem to have got the message as well, as we've seen plenty of positive signs already. There are some very innovative new features and substantial fresh content have already been announced.

As this is the officially licenced F1 game, all of the teams, drivers, liveries and helmets are in the game. The 22-race calendar is also included in the order it was originally intended to be run.
New classic cars, updated Formula 2, and more is inside but the most impressive feature of the lot is most likely My Team.

F1 2020 release date
Some sections of the F1 gaming fanbase expressed doubts about whether F1 2020 would be released on time. Thankfully though, Codemaster revealed via their trailer that F1 2020 will be released worldwide on July 10th.
That's the Xbox One game's release date, but what about next-gen?
Nothing has been said about the Xbox Series X version of F1 2020 and it's doubtful as to whether this year's game will come out on that system.

The COVID-19 lockdown also has to be considered when thinking about F1 2020 on Series X.
With their team all working from home for the foreseeable future, Codies will want to focus as much as possible on making F1 2021 as optimised as they can for Series X.
