That said, if anti-grav is your bag, then there’s nothing quite like the original – even with the number of inferior pretenders on the racing scene these days.WipEout HD and WipEout HD Fury content launches for WipEout 2048 tomorrow, 20th June, Sony has announced. Despite being boosted all the way up to 4K on the PS4 Pro, some of the tracks are returning for the fourth time, and while WipEout 2048’s contemporary layouts look luxurious on the big screen, it can be hard to shake the feeling of familiarity on occasion. WipEout Omega Collection is an impressive remaster that shines at high speeds, though elements of this compilation are starting to show their age. ![]() German manufacturer Van-Über’s also back as a pre-order bonus, though at the time of writing we haven’t been able to test out the WipEout Fusion returnee. The high-speed but heavy crafts don’t feel remarkably different to other ones in the game, but they sure look the part, with a metallic livery among those on offer. All of this is paired with a heavy electronic soundtrack that sometimes sounds like the kind of low-rent trance music you’d expect to accompany sub-par striptease shows on late 90s satellite television, but works.ĭespite the package feeling overly familiar at times, there is some new content in the form of an all-new team: Tigron. The presentation is exceptional, too: the look of WipEout is a big part of its appeal, from the graphic design of its teams and arenas through to the minimalistic look of its multiple unlockable user interfaces. There have been no shortage of pretenders to the property’s crown these past few years, but here’s a reminder that the original’s always best. Whether that statement reflects reality or not, fans of anti-grav racers should probably snag this compilation because it’s pretty good – irrespective of what lingers around the hairpin bend. You’ll have heard the marketing pitch a million times by now: buy this one and we may be allowed to make more. It’s also the reason WipEout Omega Collection exists: a commercially viable PlayStation 4 remaster, fusing PlayStation Vita entry WipEout 2048 with revered PlayStation 3 instalment WipEout HD Fury. One of PlayStation’s most iconic brands also happens to be one of its poorest commercial performers – it’s for that reason series creator Studio Liverpool finds itself resting in the Sony first-party graveyard alongside other ex-British institutes like Guerrilla Cambridge and Evolution Studios.
