Devilia is a race location in Wipeout Fusion. Taking place in Planet Novon, this is the location used for the Second Pilot Challenges. However, this location is not available in Arcade, Time Trial, Custom League, or Multiplayer modes.
Unlike all other locations in the game, all variations of this track are point-to-point courses with no reverse variation.
Description[]
Devilia was built by Tandalph Connors, the multi-billionaire owner of inter-planetary supply company TanAir 1™ and a member of the US Race Federation. He persuaded the Race Commission to build an F9000 track on the planet Novon which was discovered by one of his own sales reps, as he claimed there were lifeforms there who would be grateful for inward investment from Earth. The track is the first 'point to point' venue ever developed for anti-gravity racing; instead of being based on a loop, all races start from the same location, but then the track follows one of three different routes in linear fashion.
Variations[]
Short Course[]
Used for the Franco Gonzalez (Auricom) and Alex Reece (EG-R) challenges. Easily the most straightforward of the Devilia tracks, with the highlights being a long, undulating straight and a gradually thinning track near the end, before the track emerges into a large room where the finish line is located.
Medium Course[]
Used for the Sveta Kirovski (Tigron) and Zala Wollf (Xios) challenges. The track is significantly longer and more difficult than its short counterpart, with several chicanes and tight turns throughout its length. This version of the course includes a tricky trackless section filled with large pillars. These are very easy to hit and are liable to ruin a race.
Long Course[]
Used for the Jann Shlaudecker (Piranha) challenge. A very long and technical course, which retains the freeform section of the medium track while adding corkscrew and zig-zag sections. There is a long straight section leading to the finish, where Shlaudecker often slows down (probably because of a bug) to allow an easy victory.
Trivia[]
- This is one of the few tracks in the entire series that take place outside of Earth.
- All variations of this track are notable for being the only point-to-point tracks in the entire series.
- The planet this track is set in, Novon, is a fictional planet. It is unknown which solar system or galaxy it is located in.
- Story-wise, the track's designer claimed that there were unique alien lifeforms within the planet inhabiting the circuit. In reality, absolutely no such lifeforms can be observed on the track's surroundings.
