Star Fox Adventures Added to Switch Online

Nintendo has added the GameCube classic Star Fox Adventures to its Nintendo Switch Online service, making the title available as of September 9, 2026. The game, originally released in 2002 and developed by Rare, is now accessible to subscribers of the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack tier and is exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2 console. This unannounced addition marks the latest GameCube title to join the service, following other releases like Fire Emblem Path of Radiance and Super Mario Sunshine. Star Fox Adventures distinguishes itself from other entries in the franchise by focusing primarily on Fox McCloud's on-foot exploration and combat rather than his iconic Arwing fighter. Despite a mixed reception among some fans upon its original release, the game is considered a notable part of the GameCube's library. Its inclusion on Nintendo Switch Online provides a new opportunity for players to experience this unique adventure. In addition to the release of Star Fox Adventures, Nintendo also announced a significant free update for the recently released Star Fox remake, which is expected to enhance its multiplayer offerings.
