Star Fox (Nintendo Switch 2)
Lead the squadron. Carry the legacy.
Fox McCloud and his wingmen are back in Star Fox, a remake of the Nintendo 64 game, only on Nintendo Switch 2. Strap in for intense aerial combat as you take the Lylat System back from Andross, one planet at a time!
A Modernised Adventure: Star Fox is based on the Star Fox 64 game and features a complete visual overhaul that takes full advantage of the power and performance of the Nintendo Switch 2 system. Explore diverse planets and the insides of a nebula within the Lylat System, from the vibrant world of Corneria to the desolate, polluted oceans of Zoness. There are also all-new cinematic cutscenes featuring fully voiced dialogue and never-before-seen mission briefings between stages, where you can learn even more about the characters and worlds that make up the Star Fox universe.
Intense Space Combat: Hop into your Arwing, a high-performance aerospace fighter, and use laser blasts to take down opposing forces. You can also brake in mid-air to get enemies off your tail (no pun intended), deploy a Boost for added thrust, do a somersault and, of course, pull off barrel rolls to defend against incoming fire.
Features
New and Returning Game Modes
Star Fox features a variety of different modes, including:
Campaign Mode
Travel to a wide variety of planets, navigate through asteroid fields and engage in free-flying dogfights. Choose between Easy or Normal difficulty at the start and hone your skills to earn all the medals needed to unlock the Expert setting. The objectives you complete, foes you defeat and other actions you take can alter your route and what you do in each stage. Taking different routes can also affect the stages you encounter on your path through the system, so there’s always a reason to revisit each mission.
Chart your own path through the stars. Your performance and mission objectives determine your route, leading to secret stages and multiple endings. Unlock Expert Mode by earning medals across every planet.
Challenge Mode
Replay stages you’ve cleared and take on a variety of new objectives and challenges, some of which you won’t find in Campaign Mode. Challenges are available in either Normal or Expert difficulty settings.
Battle Mode
Gather up your crew to compete in all-new 4-vs-4 dogfights, with up to eight players divided between Team Star Fox and Team Star Wolf. This mode features three stages with different objectives: secure control of a designated zone on Corneria, collect energy crystals on Fichina, or retrieve cargo from space pirates in Sector Y. Join team battles online via private matches, or match with players from near and far. With GameShare*, up to four players can take to the skies locally or online** through GameChat.
Next-Gen Features
Additional Nintendo Switch 2 Features:
Joy-Con 2 Mouse Controls
If you are playing the game solo in Campaign Mode and/or Challenge Mode, you can swap seamlessly between button and mouse controls with the Joy-Con 2 controller. The mouse control feature allows for more intuitive aiming, and if a friend joins in, either on the same system or through GameShare via GameChat, they can assume gunner duties while you focus on flying (or vice versa!).
Experience precision aiming by swapping seamlessly to mouse-style controls. In co-op, one player can pilot while the other takes over gunner duties for a true dual-crew experience.
GameChat Character Avatars and AR Accessories
Appear as Fox McCloud or any of his crew while chatting with friends using an interactive avatar that mirrors your expressions and movements in GameChat***. With the game’s AR Accessories, you can also add a pair of Star Fox-like ears or a Falco-inspired beak that moves when you talk.
Bring the cockpit to life! Use interactive avatars that mirror your expressions in real-time. With AR accessories, you can sport Fox’s ears or Falco’s beak during your mission briefings with friends.
