Fans of the recent official Formula One games from Codemasters will welcome news that the gamemaker has secured rights to create further games based on the high-octane sport.
The British publisher and developer has extended its partnership with Formula One World Championship Limited to create more new F1 games across multiple platforms in the coming years.
Having snagged the official F1 rights back in 2009, Codemasters produced the hit Wii and PSP title F1 2009, before following it up with the acclaimed F1 2010 and F1 2011 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
The latter game also received handheld releases on Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita earlier this year.
2012's official F1 game is currently in development at the Bafta-winning Codemasters Birmingham studio, while a brand new title aimed at younger racing fans is also in the works.
F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone said: "Codemasters has created some of the best and most successful F1 games to date. We and the teams work closely with them and look forward to creating more award-winning games together in the future."
