F-Zero 99

After multiple rumors, Nintendo finally announced a new F-Zero. Technically it’s F-Zero from the Super NES era, but with an online battle royale twist. F-Zero 99 follows the likes of Tetris 99 and sees 99 players competing in races online. It’s available later today, exclusively for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers. Check out the first trailer below.

As with the original game, you race through futuristic tracks with vehicles called Machines. You have a Power Meter that decreases on taking damage, but you can also consume it for a speed boost. If you can collect various Super Sparks, then the Skyway opens up, allowing you to bypass the competition.

Completing goals unlocks new cosmetics for customizing your Machine. F-Zero 99 also supports the Super NES controller that’s available for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers for that retro feel. With how Nintendo has supported its 99 titles post-launch, it should be interesting to see what support it has in mind for F-Zero 99.
