Star Fox Zero

Fans of the Star Fox series have long hoped for the release of a game that is reminiscent of some of the series' earlier releases (e.g., Star Fox 64). Longtime fans and newbies alike were able to explore the bewildering, high-flying cosmos of Star Fox in HD with the release of Star Fox Zero on the Wii U.

Star Fox Zero is an especially amazing game because of the numerous homages it pays to legendary titles from earlier decades. The gameplay is crisp and sophisticated, including components from Star Fox 64 and Star Fox 2, as well as more subtle gameplay elements like vehicle change. Even if you are unfamiliar with prior Star Fox titles, or if you haven't played any Star Fox games at all, you will have a terrific time with this game. As you strive to save, aid, or battle with your different partners, you must fly past swarms of foes and monsters.
