Crimewave pits the gamer in a once peaceful city on the brink of an all out urban war. In this apocalyptic environment, the corrupt mayor has seized control and established a bounty hunter regime to control law and order on a cash reward basis. The gamer plays one such hunter, better known as a "security provider," as he/she races the other hunters to eliminate the felon and cash in. Gamers can choose from a variety of heavily armored vehicles as they patrol the freeways and city streets of Makeo anxiously awaiting the next assignment to appear on the scanner.

Crimewave's exciting game features provide the opportunity for gamers to test their driving, combat, judgment and reflex skills in this highway mayhem. Racing through various environments, the player will encounter realistic scenarios such as traffic jams and road pile-ups. The challenging and addictive gameplay of Crimewave not only marks a great addition to the Saturn product line, but establishes Eidos Interactive as a quality publisher for the next generation gaming platforms.
