Summary

In the post-apocalyptic future, the world has gone beyond wrestling, survival-type game shows and sporting events. It has moved on to a new form of entertainment, sponsored by the World Destruction League (WDL). The WDL has set up a battle-tournament, where budding jump jet joystick jockeys hoist their undercarriage and hog the airwaves in head-to-head jet-based combat over famous, cities throughout the world.

WDL: WarJetz for the PlayStation 2 takes advantage of the console’s new technology by using an all-new, high-resolution afterburner of an engine that displays razor-sharp graphics with clearly-defined textures and rich colour depth. Textures include tracks in the dirt and shell and scorch marks on buildings. It also uses extensive light-sourcing and dynamic-lighting. Additionally, it pushes the limits of amazing special effects with a spectacular nuclear blast effect that will blow entire cityscapes into debris, swept up in the direction of the expanding blast.

The PlayStation2 version is full of explosive air-to-air and air-to-ground battle action, outrageous competitors, and deadly weapons of destruction. It’s all set in stages around the world, where harsh conditions such as ice, mud, rain, wind and sand add extra challenges and excitement to the battle arena. And with a mind-blowing number of characters, jets, upgrades and weapons to choose from, the battle is different every time.
