Players need to gear up for all-new nerve wracking, splashtastic fun as Activision Publishing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, Inc. and ABC Entertainment Group announce Wipeout 3. Planned to launch this fall just in time for the holidays on Kinect for Xbox 360, Wii from Nintendo, and Nintendo 3DS, Wipeout 3 gets gamers back on their favorite insane obstacle course game show, complete with updated features, even more wacky characters, and all the epic wipeouts players can handle.

?Much of Wipeout?s success has stemmed from the fact that people of all ages enjoy the show,? said Matt Kunitz, Wipeout?s Creator and Executive Producer. ?We want to capture that essence with Wipeout 3 so that kids, parents, and even grandparents can plunge into this easy-to-learn, zany game.?

Wipeout 3 boasts all-new features and effects that catapult players into the most intense, body-contorting action yet! Fans will recognize their favorite obstacles like the Sweeper Arms and the Big Balls, but will be blown away by 12 fresh winter and summer course themes with dozens of obstacles allowing for non-stop fun. Players will be running through wild, over-the-top challenges created exclusively for Wipeout 3, experienced through a fun over-the-shoulder perspective, and with a hilarious ?Instant Replay? function that will have families and friends in stitches as they watch and relive their worst wipeouts over and over again.

Wipeout 3 also includes split-screen multiplayer and team modes supporting up to four players, so groups of friends and families can compete for the best times. Players can also visit the new Wipeout Shop which is loaded with useful items that enhance performance, and will be able to unlock characters and special themed episodes as they advance through the game?s hours of non-stop, replayable fun!
