Game Modes
There are several one-player and multi-player modes available in WipEout Pulse:- Campaign: One-player mode. Each grid segment consists of several races. For every race, a player earns a certain amount of points. Reach the required amount of points in order to advance to the next segment.
- Single Race: One-player mode. Choose a ship and race against the CPU on any of the tracks available.
- Time Trial: One-player mode. Choose a ship and race on any of the tracks available. A player receives one boost for every lap. The ship is invulnerable to damage, so there's no worry about the race ending prematurely.
- Tournament: Much like Single Race, but there are several races a person plays against the CPU. Players earn points based on their finish (crashing before the end receives zero points).
- Zone Mode: One-player mode. Choose a ship and race on a track. Every 10 seconds, the ship goes faster. The goal is to ride as long as possible without crashing the ship.
- Speed Lap: This is much like Time Trial, but it only takes into account individual laps. Players are given seven attempts, and a player receives a boost for each lap.
- Eliminator: This is the same as the PlayStation versions of WipEout. A goal of 1 to 99 is set. Players can reach the target amount by either destroying a vehicle or completing a lap without crashing. If a player crashed, it was sent back to the track's starting line.
- Online: Players can take part in online battles against other human competitors. However, custom stages are not playable.
