Star Fox

Lords Of Gaming : 8.5 / 10 by Randy Rhodes

This is as close to a perfect 1:1 remake as you could ask for. Star Fox feels and looks exactly how my brain remembered the game back in 1997. Every detail has been touched up to make for a modern experience while leaving the core gameplay loop intact. I would prefer if we had more shiny new toys to play with but when they refreshed the old toy this good, it’s hard to complain. The new cutscenes and dialogue bring the characters to life like never before. The orchestral arrangements of the legendary soundtrack are chef’s kiss. This is also a surprise graphical showcase for the Nintendo Switch 2. Velan Studios did an amazing job, and I hope to see them stick with the franchise the way Grezzo has with Zelda and MercurySteam with Metroid. Star Fox is back. Next time, let’s take him to new heights.

Star Fox is another remaster of a beloved classic. Fans were undoubtedly hoping for more, but it’s still an enjoyable experience. It’s just a bit too short, especially since the multiplayer mode fails to deliver.

Star Fox on the Nintendo Switch 2 is exactly the kind of remake fans have been hoping for. It stays true to what made the Nintendo 64 classic so memorable while introducing enough visuals, audio and gameplay improvements to make it feel fresh for a new generation of gamers.
