Something WipEout related is getting revealed in 4-5 weeks (not gamedev related)
- Thread starter Lant_War
- Start date
They got the license?
An other media thing with the license? Like a tv series, movie? Etc...
Some former WipeOut devs joined up?
I was going to say a spiritual successor but they said it isn't gamedev related.

I would love a new game.
The series needs a new game that takes advantage of the PS5.
As for something different, a TV show set in the Wipeout universe could be interesting. Something like Initial D but with the wipeout ships.

Oh this could be it or something merchandise related.
Maybe the Soundtrack?
This looks pretty nice. Especially the feisar one. Looks tempting.
Wipeout line of underwear? Everything from boxers to g-strings. For a limited time you can purchase Wipeout long underwear to prepare for those chilly Winter months!
Yup, sounds legit! I think that's what this will be.
was thinking this too. do a combo of game dev art plus some tdr content as well and I'll be golden.
Fingers crossed for artbook or some kind of print! Or if they're re-releasing one of the Wipeout soundtracks on vinyl that'd be pretty sweet too.
oh no
what have you DONE TO ME

"You've seen nothing like this....wow factor 11/10" doesn't really sound like vinyl or artbook but maybe.
I'm nowhere near skinny enough for those clothes anymore.

It's kinda hard to imagine what the hell it is if it's supposed to be so exciting but it's also not gamedev related (so no discovered betas or anything). Gonna keep my expectations low but my imagination is going wild.
If it was anything BIG from Wipeout, Sony would be keeping all news under tight wraps. It's not going to be anything mindblowing, sadly.
Wasn't there an amazing April fools or something years ago that was about real world Wipeout?
Edit: googled but couldn't find it. Still near certain there was one though.
Unless it isn't game(dev) related, which is what Nick implied. It could be some form of merch or media as others have speculated. It would be great if it were some kind of IP handover, but that's doubtful. There's a huge market for a wipeout game, people are hungry for it now. I really hope it's something related to the IP making a resurgence in some form, but I'm beating down those positive thoughts.
🤦🏾♂️....yeh I'm about to fall down this same rabbit hole. Lant_War you have no idea what you've done.
I'd kill for the reverse. A caRPG tune-em-up like GT but with sci fi vehicles.
He replied to a few questions further down the Twitter thread:
Not Game dev.
It's not a book.
It was a side-gig he picked up sometime last year.
Definitely Wipeout-related.
Edit: though he has responded in the negative to a few questions, he has deliberately avoided any questions about a film/tv production.

They're finally releasing Wip3out Special Edition in America to end their stupid argument that 2097 was the best one?
I agree but we've already been told not to expect gamedev-related stuff. So what else could it be? I honestly can't think of anything that would be exciting besides "here's archived stuff about the games you already love." I bet a repress of the XL/2097 soundtrack would do pretty well, for example.
Though you're right about the "you've seen nothing like this" part, I did kind of gloss over that. I'm out of ideas, then!
Sony hears you, and will once more release Wipeout HD for a third console in a row.
