Wipeout (stylised as wipE′out″) is a 1995 racing video game developed and published by Psygnosis, originally released for PlayStation and DOS, followed by Sega Saturn the next year. It was a launch title for the PlayStation in Europe. Wipeout was re-released as a downloadable game for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable via the PlayStation Network in 2007.
Set in 2052, players compete in the F3600 anti-gravity racing league, piloting one of a selection of craft in races on several tracks around the world. Unique at the time, Wipeout was noted for its futuristic setting, weapons designed to slow opponents and its marketing campaign designed by Keith Hopwood and The Designers Republic. The game features original music from CoLD SToRAGE, with tracks by Leftfield, The Chemical Brothers, and Orbital appearing on some versions. The game was critically acclaimed on release; critics praised the game for its originality and its vast "unique techno soundtrack", but was criticised for its in-game physics. It spawned the Wipeout series, with its follow-up Wipeout 2097/XL coming out in 1996.
