FormulaX is a legally distinct Formula 1-themed racing game in early access, and it's available now on Quest App Lab.
Developed by Enver Studio, whose previous work includes MotoX and SharkBait, we admittedly missed FormulaX launching back in May. Featuring 10 teams that have clear resemblances to real-life Formula 1 constructors, FormulaX uses motion-controlled steering that involves gripping the steering wheel and using the Touch Controller triggers to accelerate and brake.

</figure><p>FormulaX in early access only contains a handful of tracks, such as Monza and the Las Vegas GP, alongside single-player racing with leaderboards and a ghost race mode. Further planned updates include an interactive tutorial, multiplayer, racing against AI opponents, car construction, daily/weekly challenges, and more. </p><p>We should note that some aspects of Enver's marketing are misleading, though. The <a href="https://master.d6wy4q3qa9lyi.amplifyapp.com/?ref=uploadvr.com#!">official FormulaX website</a>, linked by <a href="https://www.enverstudio.com/games?ref=uploadvr.com" rel="noreferrer">Enver's</a> main website, appears to be a placeholder and includes screenshots from EA's <a href="https://www.uploadvr.com/f1-23-vr-review/" rel="noreferrer">F1 23</a>. It also claims the game is available on Steam, which it presently isn't, and not every feature listed on the <a href="https://www.meta.com/en-gb/experiences/7489362241082663/?ref=uploadvr.com" rel="noreferrer">store page</a> is currently available in-game.</p><p>If you're after the real deal, you won't find that on Quest but we enjoyed <a href="https://www.uploadvr.com/f1-24-vr-review/" rel="noreferrer">F1 24</a> on PC VR last month. Though we considered it a "minor upgrade" that needs further work, we believed EA's latest annual entry offered a strong sense of immersion and an improved career mode. Elsewhere, racing game fans on Quest can also jump into recent releases like <a href="https://www.uploadvr.com/vrider-review/" rel="noreferrer">VRIDER SBK</a> and <a href="https://www.uploadvr.com/downtown-club-review/">Downtown Club</a>.</p><p>FormulaX is available now on the <a href="https://www.meta.com/en-gb/experiences/7489362241082663/?ref=uploadvr.com">Meta Quest</a> platform.</p>
