Wipeout (PlayStation, NTSC-U/C, SCUS-94301): version 1
Saved 2026-09-14 03:07 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added **Wipeout** for Sony PlayStation, North American release SCUS-94301 (UPC 711719430124), from the wanted list (old 2009 title "wipeout"). **Identity** is confirmed by barcode in three places: the MusicBrainz release record (CC0; US, 1995-11-21, mixed-mode CD, 9 tracks), PlayStation DataCenter (barcode "from the back cover") and retroplace (USA version, long box, and a 1997 Greatest Hits reissue under the same barcode). The lookup showed no conflict. **Sources.** Wikipedia (Wipeout, Psygnosis and Sony Interactive Entertainment articles) gives developer and publisher and company history. Companies House gives Psygnosis Limited 01039371: previous name, and SIE Europe Limited as its person with significant control since 2016-04-06. The psxdatacenter front-cover scan (250x400) was read for the NTSC U/C and ESRB K-A marks and the long-box pack. **Filled in.** Game and Release sections, 9 tracks, specifications, pack history (long box and Greatest Hits), a US Markets row (catalogue evidence, sourced), credits and research gaps. **Stubs created.** brand/psygnosis, company/psygnosis, company/sony-computer-entertainment-america, company/sony-interactive-entertainment-europe, and family/wipeout (9 editions by barcode from retroplace). **Unresolved.** - No source names the GS1 prefix 0711719 licensee, so no gs1_prefix_owner edge was added. - The publisher credit disagrees: Psygnosis per psxdatacenter, retroplace and Wikipedia; Sony Computer Entertainment America as label per MusicBrainz. It is recorded as disputed. - No dated retail listing or price: eBay returned 403. **Corrected.** The archived Barcodepedia page called this a PlayStation 2 game, which is wrong. That error is recorded as a research gap.. Current is v2.

## About <!--about-->
Wipeout is the North American PlayStation release of the 1995 anti-gravity racing game, catalogue number SCUS-94301, released on 21 November 1995.[^psxdc] It was developed and published by the Liverpool studio Psygnosis,[^wiki] a wholly owned Sony Computer Entertainment subsidiary since 1993.[^wiki-psygnosis] Set in 2052 in the F3600 racing league, it offers eight craft on seven tracks and a two-player link-cable mode.[^psxdc] The disc is a mixed-mode CD: one data track followed by eight audio tracks by CoLD SToRAGE.[^mb] The front of the long-box pack carries the PlayStation logo, the NTSC U/C mark and an ESRB K-A rating,[^psxdc-cover] and retroplace lists the same barcode on a 1997 Greatest Hits reissue.[^retroplace]
The game launched with the PlayStation in Europe on 29 September 1995, was the console's best-selling European launch title and reached the United States in November; The Designers Republic and Keith Hopwood designed its packaging and marketing.[^wiki] The old Barcodepedia page for this barcode, archived in 2009, had wrongly described it as a PlayStation 2 game.[^oldbp]
