Star Fox is a 2026 Nintendo Switch 2 remake of Star Fox 64 (1997), developed by Velan Studios.
“Star Fox is a cinematic take on the Star Fox 64 game, featuring newly overhauled character designs, freshly revamped looks for each stage, plus detailed cutscenes, fully voiced dialogue, and a sweeping orchestral soundtrack,” according to Nintendo.
“The game also includes Joy-Con 2 mouse controls and a brand-new GameChat feature that puts you in the cockpit as your favorite characters from the Star Fox universe.”
Key Features
- High Octane adventure: Tear through space, soar across planets, and shoot loads of foes out of the sky at every turn.
- Test your mettle: Replay missions in Challenge Mode to clear objectives that unlock in-game rewards like Holoviewer logs that give you special intel on characters and mission locations.
- Online battles: Engage in intense, four-on-four team-based battles online with friends or players from around the world. Play across three stages including Corneria, Sector Y, and Fichina—each with different rules and objectives.
- Team up: Pass a Joy-Con 2 controller to a friend and they can join you as a gunner or pilot in two-player co-op. You can also experience the entire story campaign together locally or online over GameShare via GameChat.
