World of PlayStation: Sport

See you at the starting line for a full line-up of the most realistic, fun and outrageous sports titles out there.

From our sponsorship of UEFA and the PlayStation Schools Cup to our videogaming innovation, immerse yourself in sports with PlayStation. Put your foot to the floor and hold on tight for brutal off-road racing on a tropical island; or race the best players online in both real and futuristic settings. It's not all motorsports, though: there's football, golf, wrestling and even ten-pin bowling. If you love to compete, PlayStation has got just the challenge for you.

Motorstorm Pacific Rift

Peace is shattered and the ground torn to shreds on a formerly tranquil pacific island with brand-new monster trucks revving up at the starting line as the sequel to the multimillion selling MotorStorm roars onto PLAYSTATION 3. So stay tuned, the festival is back and promises to be bigger than ever before when it arrives this autumn.

Everybody's Golf: World Tour

Yes - there is an elephant on the course and no: this is not your average golf simulation. This is Everybody's Golf: World Tour for PS3, where rounds are played across global locations including the African savannah and the coast of Okinawa. Play with up to four players offline, or against the other 49 people you have just met in the online club house.

WipEout HD

The fastest anti-gravity racer is back this spring with a true next generation anti-gravity racing experience available exclusively as a download from PLAYSTATION Network. WipEout HD features online multiplayer, 1080p visuals, 60 frames per second animation, motion-sensitive SIXAXIS Wireless Controller play and a big-name electronic soundtrack.

High Velocity Bowling

Time your swing, pace your velocity, check your spin - the Wireless Controller becomes your virtual bowling ball in the ultimate motion-sensitive bowling experience. Experience the rumble and clatter of the bowling alley in the comfort of your own home this May.

Beijing Olympics

Bring home a gold medal with the only official game of the 2008 Olympics. Compete alone or with up to seven friends online and strive to break records as you lead your chosen national squad to victory.

UEFATM EURO 2008

Step out onto the pitch alongside your real-life football heroes with UEFA EURO 2008, creating your in-game likeness and working through eight levels to earn the captaincy of your team.

PlayStation Schools Cup

PlayStation's love of football is the power behind the PlayStation Schools Cup - the world's most exciting international schools football tournament. Inaugurated in 2001, the Cup sees each participating country select a number of school five-a-side teams for a national tournament, sending the winners to a pan-European final. The aim is to enable children to shine at their sport and to let them experience the fun, the teamwork and the friendship of playing it at the highest level.

FIFA World Interactive Cup

This May, in Berlin, we'll find out who's the best virtual footballer in the world. Football-fixated gamers worldwide are currently competing in national FIFA 08 tournaments, exclusively played on PS3 and on May 24, 2008 the finalists will converge in Berlin to battle it out for the world title. It's a truly global tournament with players from across Europe and beyond competing - one of which will be named the world's greatest player, netting a cash prize of £20,000.
