The developer R8 Games is made up of veterans of the Wipeout series with founder Andrew Walker part of the team that were awarded a BAFTA for best design on Wipeout 3 in 1999.
The Designers Republic the graphic design studio that designed visual assets and marketing for the first three Wipeout games, has also contributed to the game.
CoLD SToRAGE also returns in a playlist of 80+ songs with an extensive licensed library from named artists.
Though I am terrible at it, (though excellent at hitting and grinding along every barrier on the track) I loved the Wipeouts games, especially the first for their soundtrack and aesthetic. Playing it in VR is amazing.
I’m tempted to try this out since its made by veterans of that team.
Game is really good guys! Hope to have my video review fixed and published tonight. As a long time Wipeout fan, this is easily worth the price of admission, especially with the discount.
AI is pretty good. Rubber banding isn’t an issue, if anything if it’s there, I wish it was more aggressive since there have been times I pulled so far ahead of the pack I’d go an entire lap without seeing anyone. Obviously they are more aggressive in the faster speed tiers. I definitely don’t have what it takes to win Elite races
Very good and in-depth review My main problem with the game is their decision not to implement cross-play They have talked on Twitter about a future next-gen update so hopefully this also includes cross-play to maintain a healthy online player count.
