News has recently surfaced that WipEout HD for the PS3 is soon to be getting some upcoming DLC that many people have been hoping for. Speaking via the EU Playstation blog, the Game Director at Liverpool Studios broke the silence about the 'Fury' expansion and by the looks of things it's going to be pretty expansive.
New features to be included are 8 new tracks, 13 new ship models, 3 new game modes (2 of which are online enabled), new music and improved multiplayer functionality as well as new trophies to earned. Full details are after the jump and for a taste of what the current game holds check out our extensive review. So far there's no official release date for the content but it's currently being tagged as coming in the summer. As always we'll keep you updated.
The WipEout HD Fury expansion pack will increase the content of your current game with 8 new tracks, 13 new ship models and 3 new game modes, 2 of which will be available for online play! In addition there will be new trophies to attain, a re-styled front-end and a selection of new & improved multiplayer functionality!
The Eliminator game mode will allow you to release all that pent-up aggression as you use the full arsenal of Wipeout weaponry to destroy your opponents. Forget those racing lines; this is all about destruction, with the victor being the first to reach the target score!
Zone Battle is about risk and reward! Acceleration is automatic as you swoop over zone pads to fill your zone bar. Your choice is whether to use the bar to increase your speed and boost your ship ever closer to the target zone or absorb it to replenish vital lost energy. Warning, avoid the ‘zone barriers’, obstacles left on the track by your opponents as they boost towards the target zone, hitting these can literally destroy your hopes of victory!
Our Detonator mode introduces a brand new ship model to the game that will test both your piloting skills and your shooting accuracy as you accelerate through as many as 14 stages. Score points by destroying the mines that have been strewn along the track and take out the bomb on each stage to earn additional points. The more accurate you are the more points and bonuses you will score!
Just like the original WipEout HD, all the new content will be released in glorious 1080p resolution and will run at a smooth 60fps.
