Atlanta, GA - May 28, 1998 - A new version of the landmark computer game Wipeout® will be published by Psygnosis for the Nintendo® 64 home video game console system in November '98. Entitled Wipeout® 64 it will take the breathtaking gaming experience of the landmark Wipeout® series to new heights. Amongst a host of new features, the game will be the first of the Wipeout® series to include intense four multi-player races on one screen.
With 5 new deadly weapons, 15 ships on track at once and 6 awesome race circuits and multi-player tournament mode Wipeout® 64 delivers the most addictive arcade-style action yet seen. Wipeout® 64 supports the Nintendo 64 Rumble Pak™.
First appearing in 1994 Wipeout® set new standards for interactive youth entertainment both with the product design and the integrated product launch. Rather than extending and improving previous computer game genres Wipeout® was created with the speed, style and dance music which led youth culture and instantly became a part of youth lifestyle. The Wipeout® brand has grown through four product launches, each supported by a leading edge marketing campaign, and has recorded sales of over one and a half million units.
