     **WipEout 2048** is an original anti-gravity combat racing video game developed by [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psygnosis|Studio Liverpool]] for the PlayStation® Vita. It features brand new content in the form of 10 original tracks and 20 ships, a new single player campaign and online campaign, as well as content from [[wipeout_series:wipeout_hd|WipEout HD]] in the form of Cross-Play Multiplayer and later Downloadable Content that added the HD and Fury campaigns into the game. It is the eighth mainline installment in [[:wipeout_series|the WipEout series]], and was mostly well-received by reviewers, though criticized by fans for lack of several long-standing features present in previous games. **WipEout 2048** is an original anti-gravity combat racing video game developed by [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psygnosis|Studio Liverpool]] for the PlayStation® Vita.

     =====Cross-Play===== =====Cross-Play=====
    -...+**Cross-Play** is an online multiplayer mode that allows PlayStation® Vita and PlayStation® 3 players to compete against each other using content from [[wipeout_hd|WipEout HD]]. 
     + 
     +Out of the box the game provides the player with 4 tracks (**Vineta K**, **Anulpha Pass**, **Moa Therma**, and **Chenghou Project**) and 5 HD-variant ships ([[teams:feisar#in_wipeout_hd|Feisar]], [[teams:ag_systems#in_wipeout_hd|AG Systems]], [[teams:qirex#in_wipeout_hd|Qirex]], [[teams:auricom#in_wipeout_hd|Auricom]], and [[teams:piranha#in_wipeout_hd|Piranha]]) from [[wipeout_hd|WipEout HD]], with more tracks and ships being available via **Expansion packs** (FIXME add link). 
     + 
     +The experience of playing **Cross-Play** isn't too different from playing WipEout HD's Multiplayer Mode, with the exception of **Rank Progression** and lack of certain options available to the lobby host.
