Review Starlink: Battle For Atlas - A Shining Example Of Open World Star Fox Done Right
Ubisoft’s new odyssey will have a Mass Effect
It takes guts to try and revive a dormant genre, especially one that burned bright in the zeitgeist before extinguishing itself just as fast. Activision and Harmonix tried such a feat with Guitar Hero Live and Rock Band 4 back in 2015, but their hopes of a resurgent rhythm-action craze never found the...

Every Star Fox game, ranked by you
Like any long-running group, the Star Fox team has been through some ups and downs over the years, with some incredible gaming highs serving to make any titles less that life-changingly awesome feel, well, a bit disappointing by comparison.

About The Game
In Starlink: Battle for Atlas on Nintendo Switch your part of a group of heroic interstellar pilots, dedicated to free the Atlas star system from Grax and the Forgotten Legion, an evil robot force.
Starlink: Battle for Atlas offers a whole new gameplay experience: to play, build your own modular Starship model, mounted on your controller, to take part in epic space combat. Equip your model with different parts, and your Starship changes in game in real time.
Assemble your fleet, mix and match your pilots, Starships and weapons to create your own play style and defeat the enemy.
Fully customise your starship: the choice is yours
Mix and match pilots, hulls, wings, and weapons to assemble your ideal starship with an unprecedented level of customisation and creativity. Changes to your physical ship instantly appear in-game allowing you to immediately jump into the battle.
Explore an entire star system
Travel seamlessly through the exotic alien worlds of the Atlas Star System. Each one of its planets has its own identity, ecosystem and wildlife. Be careful, as space is a hostile environment and will present many challenges. The world evolves depending on your actions and your choices.
Everything you do has an impact on your journey, and enemies will react and fight back intelligently and take over the star system if you do nothing to stop them.
Get creative in combat
Build your unique play style. Experiment with different pilot abilities, weapons types, and status effects to discover and unleash devastating combos upon your enemies and overcome deadly challenges.
Exclusively for Nintendo Switch
Fox McCloud appears as a special guest pilot in Starlink: Battle for Atlas. Players have the opportunity to explore the open star system of Atlas in Star Fox’s Arwing and team up with the Starlink Initiative to help stop the Forgotten Legion.

This totally does look like No Man's Skylanders. Color me interested, I wanted a game like this on Switch (I thought Nintendo would do this with Star Fox, but it looks like Ubisoft beat them to the punch).
Looking forward to this game. Even though I still don't have a switch yet hahaha-haha-ha
Anyone know if for this game if I download the e-shop version will I need to purchase any "vehicles" or will it have an in-game ship?
@scubydo there is an in game shop I am pretty sure.
@scubydo You don't need to own physical models if you don't want to. I'm not planning on using them. Have way too much legos that take space already. haha
Really cool game, I enjoyed it thoroughly. Using physical ships is extremely uncomfortable, however and the game itself is too short. Still, I have no regrets over having played it. Strong 8/10 from me
It has its up's and down's but overall its a nice game.
The only thing that I would like Ubisoft to reconsider for future games is this: The whole quest idea of go fetch me this, go fetch me that, especially when its done so frequently its somehow boring.
Also the whole starfox experience its somewhat..short. Wish UBI makes an expansion at the Lylat system...
this game is criminally underrated, would say one of the best games of last year which more people should be playing.
It’s Star Fox, Lylat Wars. This is it and it is brilliant. Absoutely for me one of the best games on Switch. Flawless.
Flawless. This IS Starfox.
