WipEout was a defining PlayStation launch title in 1995 thanks to its thrilling sense of speed, stylish visuals, and iconic soundtrack. Despite its enduring popularity though, we haven’t had a new WipEout game since WipEout 2048 on the PlayStation Vita in 2012. Nintendo has seemingly forgotten about F-Zero, too. Renowned for its blistering speed and brutal difficulty, F-Zero pushed the SNES to its limits when it launched in 1991, with its ground-breaking Mode 7 graphics. With no new WipEout or F-Zero games on the horizon, the futuristic racing genre has seen a rapid decline. Or has it? These are our picks for the 5 best WipEout and F-Zero alternatives.

    I think this is a well rounded list. Though, of the games here, only one I didn't like was Antigraviator. That trap system just doesn't work. That or I can't understand it, in spite of spending a full year and some change on it. Redout 2 on the other hand is phenomenal and hopefully more players try it.
  • @tabookozube6766
    I'm solo developing an F-Zero like on Steam using Blender and UE5. It's been in development for 2 years now.
  • @malakaithedemigod
    As a pro level Redout 2 play, I would love for it to get more exposure, it’s so underrated. And it’s max speed you can reach is 4,000kmph which is without a doubt the fastest racing game you can buy.
  • @FLATearthGARY
    I don’t get how they keep pumping out lame realistic style racers but leave us speed futuristic hovercraft racers with about 3 or 4 decent games in over 5 years! Don’t tell me there’s no demand for it. There is!
  • Great video, the only thing I'm missing is your opinion on Aero GPX, Super Pilot and maybe Flash Out 3!
  • @jedisb
    I think Quantum Redshift on the OG Xbox, while not as new, still holds up.
  • @IceMan-hf9he
    Thank you for Antigravitor and Ballisticng, very good video!

    For people that never played Wipeout or F-Zero, Redout is not a game to start with. Its controls are too frantic and like F-Zero GX too slippy for even my taste. So Redout 2 is more like F-Zero. Pacer is where it's at. Some developers who also worked on Wipeout helped to create this beauty. The graphics, the music, the controls. And even the punishment when you hit the side rails, it is a clear successor to the Wipeout franchise. A clear winner. Fast Rmx is indeed like F-Zero GX and the controls are off the hook again. I simply do not like that gameplay style. Am I racing heavy and armed vehicles or surfboards? The forth recommendation seems like it is worth a look. Will do. So, this is Ballistic NG? Oh I gonna take that for way more than just one dollar.
  • @Brainreaver79
    i would love to play Fast RMX.. but with it being nintendo exclusive i would first have to buy the console...and doing that, for 1 single game sounds way to much of an investment.
  • @McLort
    Now this is pod racing!
  • @lightmaster001
    The fastest racing game I experience was N64 Star Wars Pod Racers. Try to drive 1000Km/h vehicle with capped 15 FPS. XD
  • @mixedmattaphors
    You had 2015 instead of 2020, but said it was 2020, for Pacer.
  • We are never gonna get another Wipeout cause of stupid Sony... I can't find the article anymore where it stated Sony owns the Name and the publishing rights for Wipeout but they don't own the IP. If I remember correctly they wanted to make a new game but Sony was pressuring them to sell the IP but the Devs said no, therefore, the next Wipeout was never made smfh So if you can support PACER buy the game or get it on sale cause half the team Devs are from Wipeout. Hopefully, we will get another PACER. Also, I do remember the same situation happened with Twisted Metal another game that will never be made again because Sony is greedy! From your list Grip has become solid after all those updates and I still play it, PACER and GRIP are the ones I play all the time. I tried Redout, it's fun and looks good but I can't get into it cause it doesn't have the weapons like the other two.
  • IMO antigravitator is horrid- Grip is one of the best racing games ever.
  • @VestedUTuber
    After finding out about some issues regarding the dev team, I can no longer support the recommendation of BallisticNG.
