The next Star Fox game

[TheRadFox987]

With E3 having gone by and no mention of Star Fox: Grand Prix what does everyone think the next game will be like? Will there even be a next game?

We all know about the Arwing in Starlink, but aside from that, was Grand Prix just a rumor? And what will become of the franchise as a whole?

I guess Grand Prix was just a rumor. Personally I didn't see it working out. However, after seeing the Arwing gameplay in Starlink for Switch, I'm hoping the next Star Fox takes a bit more of Starlink's direction, even if it doesn't become fully open-world.

No part of the Grand Prix rumor ever mentioned it being an E3 thing. From what I remember it was projected as a 2019 game. I wouldn't right it off yet

Beyond that I'd really like Nintendo to further develop the Star Fox 2 gameplay. Star Fox Command simplified it but I want a game that takes Star Fox 2 and goes even farther. Such an ambitious game and I think there is plenty of room for exploration within that design. (Also Starlink looks awesome and I'm super jazzed for it)

In truth, I'm hoping that Starfox GP isn't a real thing. It would be fun, no doubt of that at all, but the problem I see is that it probably wouldn't sell well. These days when people look at racing on Nintendo consoles, they'd probably just play Mario Kart. Considering SFGP sounds like a suped up/hybrid of F-Zero, we see what happened to that series. A Starfox spin-off would be great really, but I'm a little afraid that a spin off now would be similar to Metroid Federation Forces. In the future I'd love to see a spin off or SFGP, but I'd prefer we have a real return to the series and get a solid, well-selling game first.

If Starfox GP is in the works, it's likely that it's VERY early in development. Generally, Nintendo doesn't like to present games too early unless they really have to. Some games, suh as the Kirby and Yoshi Switch titles, were presented fairly early, but they had little else to show for the console, so that's why.

The Switch is doing very popularly right now, with lots of 1st party releases. Nintendo really don't have to release early footage of such a game anymore. Heck, all we've had of Metroid Prime 4 is a 10 second teaser title screen, and that was likely only released to shut people up from complaining "where is the next Metroid Prime?!"

 

I've no idea how likely a Star Fox game is in prodution, period, but I wouldn't expect it to come out of the blue anytime soon. Although, I will admit I'm a tad disappointed. Then again, with Dark Souls Switch just 10 days away, I don't really care about anything else right now.

The inclusion of Starfox in Starlink is a nice touch, at least someone's still thinking of us. 

I'll probably end up getting it and writing a review or something here.

It appears that the Star Fox: Grand Prix was never more than a rumor. According to a video by Did You Know Gaming, the game was not in development and the rumor may have originated from confusion around the title Starlink: Battle. By the way, have you ever played on this website that has the best gambling games to date?
