The Star Fox games form one of Nintendo's longest-running sci-fi shooter lines. It began in 1993 when Star Fox (Starwing in PAL) used the Super FX chip to put polygonal dogfights on the SNES, then peaked in 1997 with Star Fox 64. The series experimented with an action-adventure detour (Star Fox Adventures), a multiplayer-heavy entry (Assault), a strategy hybrid (Command) and motion controls (Zero) before returning to its on-rails roots with the 2026 Switch 2 remake.
