Wipeout is a futuristic racing game set in the year 2052. Racing for one of four teams, the player competes in the F3600 Anti-Gravity Racing League on six tracks. Each team's hovercraft racer has different ratings in speed, acceleration and turning. In addition to high-speed racing, there is also shooting in the game, with different weapon pickups like rockets and mines available, useful for slowing one's opponents down. Shields can also be picked up and can block the weapons' effects. There are championship, single race and time trial modes. Winning the championship in the regular Venom class unlocks the Rapier class, where the craft are faster and the tracks have slightly different looks. There is also a two-player mode where two opponents can race and shoot at each other.

Racing Class Selection
There are two racing classes in WipeOut: Venom and Rapier. When you first play the game you will be in the Venom class. You will only be able to move up to the faster Rapier class when you have completed all six Venom tracks and finished at the top of the Championship points table.
Championship/Single Race/Time Trial Selection
Press the D-Pad Left or Right to highlight the race type of your choice then press button “B” to select it.
•
Championship: Starting on the first track, you will attempt to finish in the top three to qualify for the next one. Points will also be awarded depending on your placing. If you finish outside the top three you will lose a life - you have 3 lives per track.
•
If you manage to complete all six tracks in the Venom class AND finish first overall on the points table, you will be able to move up to the tougher Rapier class.
•
Single Race: If you choose this option, you will be offered the Team Selection and the Pilot Selection screens followed by the opportunity to select a track by pressing the D-Pad Left or Right. There are six tracks in WipeOut. These are Altima VII, Karbonis V, Terramax, Korodera, Arridos IV, and Silverstream. You will compete against a field of pilots in a 3 lap race.
•
Time Trial: As in the Single Race, you can choose your team, pilot and track. All weapons are deactivated in a time trial. Race against your own best times. You have no one to beat but the clock!
Team Selection
There are four major teams from around the world involved in the F3600 Anti-Gravity Racing League. Each team invests heavily in research and builds crafts to suit their own star drivers - the aim is always to blitz the course and leave the opposition in a cloud of blazing electrons.
At the start of each race there are 8 contenders on the track. These 8 are made up of 2 pilots from the 4 different teams.
Pressing D-Pad Left or Right to cycle through the four teams. Press "B" to select your chosen team. Remember that the race craft used by each team differ in specification. The Craft Statistics table will help you in your choice.
