The original PC port for Wipeout was very poor, looks like someone has made a proper PC port utilizing PS1 data: https://github.com/wipeout-phantom-edition

I really wish there was a new one…

BallisticNG is a spiritual successor to the PS1 originals (including optional texture warping). The aforementioned Redout is more targeting modern stylistic choices. Both games are good but I like BallisticNG more.

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately I’m only on consoles (for now), but I’ve added it to my steam wish list.

There was wipeEout Omega Collection released for PS4 in 2017. It's a remaster of wipEout HD (2008) and wipEout 2048 (2012)

And it works surprisingly well in VR too. Though I would not recommend removing the optional cylinder thing that's here to block your peripheral vision.

With it I can play long sessions with absolutely zero problems. Without... Well a short glance at the sky would make me sick veeeery fast.

I really enjoyed it, but I would enjoy a new one even more haha

Unfortunately I’m only on PS5 :(

But thank you for the suggestion, I’ve put it on my wish list!

It had a bit of a rough release, but I really like Pacer. It's by a team that includes a number of people that worked on the Wipeout games. It's not aiming at the same retro vibes as BallisticNG or the absolute speed over all else of Redout, it's more like a modernised take on Wipeout 2097 or 3

This one I already had in my steam wishlist and I just saw it was previously called formula fusion… unfortunately I’m only on consoles!
