Nintendo has held a surprise Nintendo Direct focussed on Star Fox which was previously rumoured and is now official. The game is an extended remake of Star Fox 64 with updated visuals for the Nintendo Switch 2 and retains the same stage layout but features revamped and refreshed visuals. It also contains a multiplayer mode and is due for release on 25th June.
Star Fox 64 has been remade for Nintendo Switch 2 and is titled Star Fox

Watching the direct live right now. Holy crap the visuals look great!
I hope it have some stages from Starfox Snes since they are naming it Starfox.
I think its the same game but better
LOOKS LIKE NATE WAS RIGHT
Why does falco look like revali from breath of the wild?
They both have strong resemblance.
Shinygold I’ll NEVER doubt your love for Leon Kennedy EVER AGAIN!
We getting remakes for OoT and Super Metroid, and a new Wario Land title as well.
Remake of the Wario Land games only. Nintendo seems to be done developing new games.
Nate was right hopefully the haters are done. They won’t admit he was right. Now if that State Of Play could happen now. Personally don’t like the look of Star Fox characters in this maybe you old heads like it I prefer the anime look this looks like the puppets from those old commercials.
DUDE THIS LOOKS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING I LOVE THIS!!!!!
A FULL ON REMAKE OF 64????
Liking your own commentary for validation is sad. Just because it was revealed, doesn’t mean Nate was right. You could also “predict” a Star Fox game was coming every month until, eventually, it’s announced. Plus he got the reveal date AND media completely wrong.
Nate has leaked too much to not be a random guess, he leaked the switch, everything about it, and when it would release. Grow up
A week off and dates can change, I hate how mentally challenged some of you sre in this site.

He’s going to keep saying it was “delayed” until we are all dead. I don’t believe him at all right now. he’s been right in the past, but it seems right now is his downfall. Still waiting for that kirby planet robobot remaster that he said was coming out! Lmao
That aged like milk lol
He was wrong though. He said we’d get a new Star Fox game announced last month.
This is a Star Fox remake announced this month.
Poor guy. Even he couldn’t have guessed Nintendo would remake Star Fox 64 again.
No CFG. He got it correct!
He said a new game in the classic style, with online multiplayer.
June release.
April was only 7 (yes 7) days ago.
Nates news went completely which viral. Which would’ve been very easy for Nintendo to delay the direct. Which they did.
A FOURTH remake? Seriously?
Im so mixed man, it looks really really good but was it really that difficult to make a new story with new settings and enemies?
I know! They made all of these beautiful graphics but they just used it to recreate 64. I am still excited for it.
That was my initial thought too, but after watching the Direct it looks like they’re a lot to enhance the story and world of the game this time. It’s very cinematic, and it feels like the first time they’re trying to do the story justice. Not trying to say that any of the other games did the story poorly or anything like that, but this time it looks like they’re using modern techniques to fully enhance the story in modern way that they haven’t attempted before. I’m excited!
I think they only make the fourth remake for players and fans who are new to the series and didn’t play the other installments.
I would not consider this a “new game”. It’s a remaster. That’s fine. But no extra levels even. Was hoping for $40. If you’re playing multi-player often then $50 is worth it, if not just play the 3ds version which is great.
It’s not a remaster. It’s a remake. Star Fox 64 3D is more like a remaster than a remake, but this new game is inarguably a remake. It’s remaking the original vision of the game with more cinematic storytelling compared to any other version of the game.
I’m actually playing the 3DS game right now so that I can further compare the remake once it releases next month. Fun game!
I know right?
From what I can tell from Memory, the stages look one to one with the N64 levels, just better Visuals. Not great considering you can clear Starfox 64 in an hour. Not liking those character redesigns. Was there mention of Online with anyone or is it restricted to just friends if at all.
Every time they try to do something else or new with this franchise, it ends up being mediocre or bad. I can imagine that they would like to do something new but came to the conclusion that it would need younger audiences to connect with the OG game first.
That would also explain that simple naming. They could now just create a Starfox 2 after this.
Nintendo: Ill remake Starfox again!
Sony: Yea? We’ll whip out Last Of Us Remastered again for PS6!
Microsoft: what are games
in all seriousness, idk how to feel about this announcement. I do know the oot remake just became more real though!!!!!!
The game does look good. However, I’m gonna level in one thing: not really feeling the more animal-like designs for the characters, ESPECIALLY Falco. He looks more like a Rito crossed with a chicken. Dunno exactly why they decided on such an approach when the previous designs weren’t bad at all.
Aside from that, however, it does look fantastic, and it’s very close to release. Still don’t know why it couldn’t be a part of a general Direct – wasted opportunity to go with “Star Fox releases exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2 LATER TODAY” (imagine the meltdown).
So, the Ocarina of Time remake might be a reality after all…
This is the fourth time they remake the game in a row but seriously? What’s going on with that? How much money they are spending in development for this new remake?
I Hate the character redesign and I Hate that it’s Starfox 64 Again. Starfox 64 is a remake of SNES Starfox, Starfox 64 3D is a remake of Starfox 64, Starfox Zero is a reimagining of Starfox 64, This new Starfox is another Remake of Starfox 64
Shigeru Miyamoto hates Story telling, it isn’t even his focus when making movies. Story are just as important as gameplay. He probably hates Krystal as well. Every Starfox that isn’t a remake or reimagining of the first game was made by a 3rd party studio not counting Starfox 2 that never even released officially on it’s original hardware.
No, story ISN’T as important as gameplay. That’s why games were able to coast by for decades without it
Go Play Sticker Star and leave me alone.
You could be right. He probably does.
Story isn’t nearly as important as gameplay. Otherwise no one would play sports games that have zero stories in them.
Neutral towards this. Never been crazy about the IP. But this kinda seems like a reboot attempt. If this does well, I could see a sequel that ignores all other lore prior development.
Again?! Star Fox 64 was a remake itself. Zero a was a remake of 64. This is a… fourth remake?
We’re going to get Fox’s origin story a 5th time when the movie releases, and then we’ll get another reboot afterwards
Nate was pretty much bang on.
Nintendo delayed it by a week.
On starfox assault my love….they really don’t like you do they?
make a new game for once!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
make a new game for

Remade twice before right? 3DS, Zero, and now this? They really don’t want to make a new game or are too scared. Honestly people wouldn’t mind Adventure now a days going back to that. I wouldn’t mind F-Zero having open world beat em up.
