F1 Manager 22

FEATURED CLIENT

FRONTIER

In 2019, Frontier acquired rights to develop a Formula 1 management game, set for development in 2020 and release in 2022. Despite being a management game, it required artwork similar to a racing game, featuring real-world racetracks. With no prior experience in racing games and a small, inexperienced team, Frontier aimed to outsource most of the artwork. Recognizing the client’s limitations, Lakshya deployed games artists from its UK and US studios, along with a full-time Art Director, to bolster the client’s capacity and oversee production.
