Surprise! Nintendo's StarFox Remake Hits Switch 2 on June 25
- On Wednesday, Nintendo announced a new title simply titled "Star Fox" for the Nintendo Switch 2, set to release on June 25, 2026, during a surprise Nintendo Direct.
- Nintendo revealed the game is "Based" on the classic Star Fox 64 with a complete visual overhaul and new cutscenes, marking the first new franchise entry in a decade.
- New features include four-on-four multiplayer, mouse controls, and "interactive avatar" GameChat capabilities that mirror facial expressions. The title will likely cost $40 digitally and $50 for physical versions.
- This announcement arrives as Nintendo faces a relatively sparse Switch 2 lineup for the rest of 2026, while the company's stock price has declined since the 2025 holiday period.
- Marketing for the game follows Fox McCloud's cameo in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, though it remains uncertain whether millennial nostalgia will resonate with younger N64 players.
