Red:Out footage will make WipeOut fans happy

Redout 3

Developers 34BigThings promise "the fastest arcade racer since the good old days of F-Zero and WipEout", and those comparisons are justified based on the early footage spotted by PCGamesN. Glossy tracks, loop-the-loops, track adornments that strobe into burning coils of light as you bounce around each improbable bend, a sound track that goes BOP-BOP-BOP-BOP at a slightly faster pace than a resting heart rate - yes please.

The team sums up their track design philosophy like this: "Racetracks are boring. Race on rollercoasters." It's named after a phrase for the reddening of vision under extreme G-force, with a bonus colon because all PC game names have to have colons in them that's the law.

Here is more, from the studio's YouTube channel.
