Nintendo announced Star Fox, a remake of Star Fox 64 for Switch 2, during a Nintendo Direct that was announced just minutes beforehand. The game is scheduled to be released on June 25, 2026.
The remake keeps the original level structure from the Nintendo 64 version, featuring a mostly linear campaign with a series of missions and alternative routes to new levels. The Star Fox crew has been redesigned, maintaining the puppet-style aesthetic from the original game. Additionally, new mission briefings expand on Star Fox lore between stages.
What’s New in Nintendo’s Star Fox 64 Remake for Switch 2
The remake introduces new difficulty settings and a challenge mode that allows players to replay stages with optional objectives not available in the main campaign. The multiplayer battle mode is also back as a 4v4 online dogfighting feature, spanning three stages. Mouse controls are supported for aiming, offering an alternative to traditional controller input.
The reveal was rumored to happen in April but was only shown during the May Direct. The Star Fox character has recently gained more attention, partly due to an appearance in the Super Mario Galaxy Movie. Nintendo seems to be leveraging this by reintroducing the franchise to new audiences.
Star Fox will be released exclusively on Switch 2 on June 25, 2026. Nintendo has not announced a price.
