Wipeout lays the futuristic Psygnosis racing base with a cult soundtrack, still elegant today but with harsh difficulty and limited PS1 engine.

Collector interest

A futuristic anti-gravity racer that forged the PlayStation's hip image at launch, marrying speed, electronic music and a visual identity by The Designers Republic. Still fairly widespread in the West, its interest lies in this status as a cultural icon of the console's early days rather than scarcity. A piece of history for anyone wanting the origin of a line as stylish as it is fast.

Is Wipeout still worth playing in 2026?

Released in 1995 on PS1, Psygnosis Liverpool's project redefined futuristic racing on consoles with a graphic elegance that merged with the era's rave culture. The Designers Republic art direction, the electronica soundtrack featuring Orbital, Leftfield and Chemical Brothers, and the antigravity speed feel install a lasting identity. The handling glides a lot and the track reading requires learning. Recommended today for futuristic arcade devotees, for Psygnosis fans and for PS1 collectors curious about a founding console classic on Sony's first home console hardware globally.
