Are there already mods for F1 23? How can you install a mod in F1 23 and is it also possible on the console? A few days ago, the new F1 offshoot from Codemasters and Electronic Arts was released for PC and console. As every year, the new F1 23 is also very popular. Anyone who has already played some of the game’s predecessors may have downloaded and installed a mod from websites such as racedepartment.com. In addition to cheats, popular mods also include paintwork and skins, mods with which you can improve the AI, realistic graphics mods or the telemetry tool with which you can display lots of information about the car. The question arises, can the mods also be installed in F1 23?
Install mods in F1 23
The F1 22 mods are at least currently not directly compatible with F1 23. But that doesn’t mean that there aren’t already some modders who are adapting their mods to the new part. The first modifications for the game can already be found on the well-known mod websites such as the aforementioned racedepartment.com, but also on nexusmods.com. As in the previous versions, the installation is very easy in most cases, by simply downloading the mod and moving the contents of the .zip or .rar archive to the F1 23 installation directory.
- Mod as an archive of sites like racedepartment.com or nexusmods.com download and unzip the contents.
- Now move the content to the installation directory of F1 23 (close the game first). The installation directory can be displayed in Steam or Origin under Properties. From the Steam version, the path looks something like this: D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\F1 23
- Then start the game again and the mod should be installed.
Some more complex mods sometimes require additional steps. For this reason it is always advisable to read the enclosed readme file, where the additional installation steps are often described.
Mods on the PS5 or Xbox Series?
Unfortunately, F1 23 does not yet offer official mod support. For this reason, you can’t install any modifications in the console version at the moment.
