Codemasters has announced that it has dropped the online pass for F1 2013, which would have charged players who purchased the game used to pay to play online.
According to a publisher rep, “We have taken the decision not to include a VIP Pass activation system in either F1 2013 and F1 2013: Classic Edition. Players will not be required to activate multiplayer functionality via a VIP Pass code and we have no plans to replace the pass with an alternative paid-for activation system in the game when it launches this October.”
F1 2013 is due for release on the 8th October 2013 for PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3.
