The US PlayStation Blog has just confirmed that WipEout HD will be headed to the North American PSN store on September 25, priced at the previously announced USD 19.99.

With only 10 days to go until the US launch, we're still yet to hear anything official for other territories, although hopefully those announcements will follow in the next few days.

In the meantime, have a nice list of confirmed features to look forward to:

- Full HD (1080p) Visuals
- 5 Game Modes - Single Race, Tournament, Time Trial, Speed Lap and Zone Mode
- Online play that supports up to 8 racers competing on a track at a time
- 2-player split screen (horizontally and vertically) offline
- 8 reversible tracks and 12 teams
- Optional use of SIXAXIS motion controls to steer your ship
- Dolby 5.1 soundtrack, custom playlists
- Trophy support

    @2 - your dead right man, I was about to say the same thing. but hopefully these

    psn cards are released soon as no one that i know here uses a cc for the store.

    looks like a great price though, and hopefully sony here my woes and help myself and others to them pesky psn cards!!

    Cool, Eurogamer gave it 9/10, a very promising review.

    The music in this version sounds awsome, I like it unlike wipeout 3 which was probably why most did not like the game as much as 2097.

    Release day cannot come sooner.

    Woooooooooooooo, I was interested in this title at first but I wasn't expecting too actually buy it. It's looking to be one impressive game at it's price.
