The guys over at the US PlayStation blog have today revealed that the long awaited exclusive PlayStation 3 title WipEout HD, is on it’s way.
“Your wipEout HD thirst will be quenched on September 25. Yes, that’s right, just 10 days from today. For just $19.99, wipEout HD will be available for download only and includes the following awesomeness:
- Full HD Visuals
- 5 Game Modes – Single Race, Tournament, Time Trial, Speed Lap and Zone Mode
- Online play that supports up to 8 racers competing on a track at a time
- 2-player split screen (horizontally and vertically) offline
- 8 reversible tracks and 12 teams
- Optional use of SIXAXIS motion controls to steer your ship
- A great soundtrack remixed in Dolby 5.1 AND the option for custom playlists that allow you to race to whatever playlists you have on your HDD
- And more, including Trophy support, which we’ll outline for you in a future post – so keep your eyes peeled.”
At $19.99 that works out at around £11.99 for us UK PS3 owners. Roll on September 25th is what I say!
Update: We’ve just had word from SCEE that the UK release of WipEout HD will indeed be priced at £11.99 and will be released on the same day as our American cousins, September 25. This is great news and we cannot wait to get our hands on the title next week. Let us know how excited you are in the comments!
