Connect easily with your friends

Game invites have now been introduced to WipEout® HD to make it easy for you to invite your friends to join your game or for them to invite you!
In addition you will also be informed of any friends with an active online game and have the ability to join that game instantly!

Watch races in progress

If a race has started before you have had chance to join it, Spectator mode will allow you to watch that race. Within spectator mode you can choose from 4 camera angles and select which ship to watch.
After the race has been completed you will be taken back to the lobby with the other players so you can compete with them in the next race.
