Race modes

There are several game modes available in Wipeout Omega Collection:

  1. Race - Standard race with opponents.
  2. Time Trial - this is a time trial. You should beat the time specified by the game.
  3. Zone - this is a mode in which you have to drive and survive as long as possible without crashing. With each completed Zone player's vehicle accelerates and is more difficult to master. To win, you have to finish the specified number of Zones. The game ends when the vehicle is completely crashed.
  4. Zone battle - it's a zone mode but with opponents. You have to earn a certain number of points before your enemies manage to gather them. From time to time you will receive a Zone boost. It will speed you up and allow you to score faster. Avoid driving into barriers or you will break your car. Despite that, unlike the classic Zone, you will be respawned and lose a lot of points.
  5. Combat - in this mode, players collect weapons and boosters in order to attack opponents with them. For every successful hit with a weapon you get a certain number of points. Game ends after the specific time of the race. Player with the highest amount of points wins.
  6. Speed Lap - in this mode you can set new time records per lap on any track. Once per lap you get a booster.
  7. Eliminator - a mode similar to Combat, but you need to get a certain amount of points. After elimination, cars get a respawn.
  8. Detonator - you fly in your vehicle and shoot at mines or bombs which add you some points. A few collisions with mines will blow up your car.
  9. Tournament - it's a competition in which you race against your opponents on the routes you have set. You can select tracks as you like - from 1 to 12.
Weapons include, among others, rockets, cannons and tracking missiles - WipEout Omega Collection Guide

Weapons, boosters and nitro fields

Weapons include, among others, rockets, cannons and tracking missiles. Depending on the car, the effect of the weapon varies and it is based on weapon's statistics. For example, a vehicle with a low Firepower rating will fire only one rocket, and a vehicle with a high rating may shoot up to three rockets at the same time. You can obtain weapons after you drive through a yellow field on the racing track.

Boosters include a turbo, shield or a mine, and effects of these special items vary depending on your car - WipEout Omega Collection Guide

Boosters include a turbo, shield or a mine, and effects of these special items vary depending on your car. You obtain boosters and special items by driving on the green field on the track.

Afterburner (nitro) field gives your vehicle amazing boost in acceleration - WipEout Omega Collection Guide

Afterburner (nitro) field gives your vehicle amazing boost in acceleration. Drive through it as often as possible, because it may help you in winning the race. If you drive on a single nitro field, you'll get a little acceleration. If you drive on a few nitro fields in a row, your vehicle will speed up to incredible speeds.

Several vehicle brands are available in Wipeout Omega Collection - WipEout Omega Collection Guide

Vehicles and their stats

Several vehicle brands are available in Wipeout Omega Collection:

  1. Feisar
  2. Qirex
  3. Pir-hana
  4. AG Systems
  5. Auricom

And each brand has 8 different types with different statistics. There are 4 main statistics such as:

  1. Speed - determines the speed at which your vehicle is moving.
  2. Firepower - it determines the strength of your weapons and supporting items. If the vehicle has a high Firepower, it can fire three missiles at the same time. If a vehicle has lower stat of Firepower it will shoot with just one missile.
  3. Handling - affects the maneuverability of the car. The higher the handling, the swifter the moves of your car. If a vehicle has a high handling stat it behaves much better in taking corners on the track.
  4. Health - amount of health points. Each vehicle has an Energy Shield bar in the bottom left corner. You lose energy shield by hitting track rails and taking damage from enemy weapons. Energy Shield can be gained by sacrificing a weapon or a special item by pushing the circle button. If you do so, then you will gain 10% Energy Shield. If the Energy Shield bar drops to 0%, your vehicle explodes. In other words, you will be eliminated.
