Lowell Bell takes the Arwing for a spin in the Gamer Guides review for Star Fox (2026)

June 29, 2026 Read Review

As I said at the outset, part of what I find so impressive about Star Fox 2026 is how unafraid it is to rethink how we experience these classic levels. There is a deep understanding of lore that goes far beyond Star Fox 64. In addition to hopefully opening the way for sequels of its own, there is also an awareness of where these characters need to go in existing canon. It all comes off as remarkably respectful to not just Star Fox 64, but the entire series. And underneath that is arguably the best version of the campaign that made Star Fox 64 the legend it is. It has been expanded with unlocka…

Star Fox, a remake of the legendary Nintendo 64 game, is extremely fun but pretty familiar to fans of the original.

Where Star Fox stamps its value is in the new part of the game. The multiplayer is exceptional and will have some real lasting power, especially given that space dogfighting games with multiplayer modes are almost shockingly uncommon. With any luck, this release is an example of Nintendo testing the waters for what’s next, and we get even more Star Fox with even more of this multiplayer in the years ahead.

It's a rare game that is so timeless that it holds up this well 29 years on. Star Fox 64 is one such game, though. In turn, that means a 1:1 remake not only makes sense, but is brilliant to boot.

June 24, 2026 Read Review

Star Fox is back, and this remake perfectly understands the strengths of the original while perhaps overlooking its weaknesses. Those who played the original on the Nintendo 64 will find the action familiar, while new players, despite the somewhat awkward controls, will enjoy the characters and the adventure. Although it feels short, even with its replay value, it's a must-have for the Switch 2, and if you're in Latin America, you'll appreciate the excellent localization and voice acting.

Star Fox is as close to a perfect 1:1 remake as you could get. I was skeptical if that would be enough, but Velan has put my worries to rest.

June 30, 2026 Read Review

Star Fox is the best version of this game ever made, and it proves the franchise has more than enough fuel left for an original sequel. Velan Studios showed the franchise still flies, and Nintendo’s growing Switch 2 library would be better with a fully original Star Fox in it.

Star Fox on the Switch 2 is a triumphant return for Fox McCloud and a spectacular technical showcase for the new console. While the underwhelming multiplayer modes and short run time hold it back from perfection, the stunning visual upgrades and incredibly responsive dual-stick controls make this the definitive way to experience this classic adventure.

How do you revive a legendary 30-year-old title? This kind of exercise is almost routine for Nintendo, which is used to modernizing its classics for new generations. And the next game to undergo this treatment this year is none other than Star Fox 64, or Lylat Wars, which is getting a brand-new remake on Nintendo Switch 2.
