Wipeout Pulse is a futuristic racing game developed by SCE Studio Liverpool, released in 2007 for PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 2, and PlayStation Vita. Set in the year 2207, a decade after the events of Wipeout Pure, it places players in high-speed anti-gravity competition across eight distinct teams, each fielding a single craft. Ships differ meaningfully from one another, with each team's vessel carrying its own balance of handling, top speed, acceleration, and shield durability, making team selection a consequential choice. As players progress, they unlock the ability to customize the visual appearance of their ships. The game's structure encourages familiarity with individual craft characteristics, since no two teams offer the same performance profile, and adapting racing strategy to a ship's strengths and weaknesses is central to competitive play.
