Fox McCloud is back.

That’s it. That’s the post.

But seriously. Even if this is technically just Star Fox 64 again (for the 3rd or 4th time, depending on how you count), I’m loving it. There’s something about coming back to the Lylat System that just feels great, and the Switch 2 coat of paint does it real justice. This is what playing Star Fox 64 for the first time as a kid feels like thru your rose-colored-glasses of nostalgia.

Even Battle Mode is surprisingly fun, which I did not expect. Now I just need to actually play it with friends (wild concept, I know).

Looking forward to earning medals on every planet and unlocking the alternate route in each mission that has one. Yeah, the base campaign is short, it always has been, but Star Fox is about arcade replayability.

I just hope this sells well and we get a proper ‘new’ entry to the franchise.
