WipEout HD is coming to the PS3 via a PlayStation Network download this fall, as revealed in a new PlayStation Blog update by the developers who also revealed an all-new trailer for the Leipzig Games Convention 2008.
WipEout HD will feature a selection of the best tracks taken from previous versions of the iconic franchise that have been reworked to show-off the graphical capabilities of PS3, all running in a smooth as butter 60 frames-per-second in 1080p resolution!
And you better make sure that hand-eye-coordination is in tip-top shape, because you will be able to challenge the greatest anti-grave racers in the world via a slew of WipEout HD online modes!
Also included in WipEout HD will be Trophy support! All the better to brag to the online challengers who will be eating your dust.
In addition to the typical controls using the control sticks, the game will also have an option for Sixaxis motion controls that allows you to steer your ship by moving the controller.
Naturally the game includes a bevy of weapons with which to blast your opponents with, as well as plenty of different teams and ships to choose from, lots of online and offline racing modes and a fully Dolby 5.1 surround sound-supported soundtrack to get your blood pumping and your feet tapping. You can even add in your own music tracks to listen to while you race! Allowing for you to create a custom playlist on the PS3 XMB (CrossMediaBar) using your own music collection. Which is definitely a great feature for those who aren’t into the whole electronica vibe.
Now give a look at the new trailer!
