F-Zero X comes to Nintendo Switch Online with online multiplayer Silence broken. News by Ed Nightingale News reporter Updated on 9 Mar 2022 35 comments The F-Zero series is finally headed to the Switch - at least, the N64's F-Zero X is. It's the next game to arrive on the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion, following Majora's Mask last month. It will be available from 11th March. Following the impressive Mode 7 graphics of the SNES original, F-Zero X added polygonal graphics, 30 character races, and blistering speed over winding, rollercoaster tracks at a smooth 60 fps. Watch on YouTube This release on Switch will include online multiplayer for four players - a first for the series. The game was followed by F-Zero GX on the GameCube, which added sharpened graphics and a phenomenal soundtrack. The addition of F-Zero X means there are now thirteen N64 games available on Nintendo Switch Online: Banjo-Kazooie Dr Mario 64 F-Zero X The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Mario Kart 64 Mario Tennis Paper Mario Sin & Punishment Star Fox 64 Super Mario 64 WinBack Yoshi's Story What's next? Data miners looked into the expansion pass at launch and filled in some gaps in the line-up: Mario Party, Wave Race 64 and Smash Bros are all strong contenders. And perhaps the inclusion of F-Zero X could signal a return of Nintendo's long lost racing series? We can but hope.
