F-Zero Climax and F-Zero: GP Legend joining Nintendo Switch Online

Two more games are coming to Nintendo Switch Online, with the service soon adding F-Zero Climax and F-Zero: GP Legend. Both are slated for October 11, 2024. If you’re a subscriber to the Expansion Pack tier of Switch Online, you’ll be able to access them when they’re made available next week.

F-Zero Climax is particularly notable as the GBA game never left Japan. F-Zero: GP Legend launched in North America and Europe in 2004 after it debuted in Japan the year prior. These titles were made by Suzak, a studio that closed down in 2012.

Here’s some information about the games:

F-Zero – GP Legend – Get your adrenaline pumping, and race plasma-powered machines against the galaxy’s most elite racers! Boost down some of the most dangerous tracks in the universe and strive for victory at all costs — even if it means ramming your opponent off the track. Compete in the Grand Prix or Story modes, climb the standings and unlock additional modes and characters. Put the pedal to the metal, and get busy boosting, bumping and jumping your way to intergalactic glory!

F-Zero Climax – Push your driving to its limit! This 2004 sci-fi racing game, only released in Japan for the Game Boy Advance system, is full of game modes designed to test your racing skills at the highest levels. Leave Mach 1 in the dust as you hit the track against 23 other hover cars. Aim to be the fastest racer in the known universe in GRAND PRIX, challenge your limits in TIME ATTACK or test your reflexes in races with their own special rule sets in SURVIVAL. You can even race on courses created in EDIT mode — and save up to 30 original courses!

We have a trailer for F-Zero Climax and F-Zero: GP Legend on Nintendo Switch Online below.
