Exclusive: Here's What's In Today's Free FAST RMX REMIX Update

Nice update.

wow! looking forward to this

The high difficulty keeps me from buying the game. Is it manageable for a novice player like myself?

Nice update but still nothing to address the warping and incorrect position displays in online and multi-switch local modes. So disappointing.

I can't wait!

@Oubie I'm pretty bad at high speed racing games, but I have to say the improvement you get out of learning from your mistakes is a lot of fun. It's especially fun if you have a friend to play it with and you both just keep crashing into stuff for the first 20 minutes lol

@Oubie For a novice, completing the game may be unachievable, but you will definitely still get your moneys worth from it I recon. Especially if they continue to release free updates like this!

@amos_IRL @Kyranosaurus Thanks guys! I will consider it when my next paycheck comes around.

I seriously love the game - but I'm getting a bit frustrated with a lack of progress at the moment. I'd love Shin'en Multimedia or Nintendo-life to release some sort of how-to-improve guide. There is non online that I can find and the Youtube videos I've seen are no real help - more like intentional joke videos arsin' around with the game.

Does anyone know of a good guide or can share some tips? I feel like I'm not bad at the game now but just can't get first in the later stages.

Also I'd love to be able to play my own music - the music is very good - but I want to play the game with some Chemical Bros., Orbital, Aphex twin, Prodigy etc. for that proper wipeout vibe.

@Pahvi That's very helpful Pahvi, Thank you and I'll give that a go

absolute belter of a game. it aint like f-zero though, i could grumble about that comparison for days.
what i would like to see from ninty is an f-zero modelled on the snes version (with updated artwork) retaining the simple flat racing and an emphasis on time trials and online ghost mp a bit like Trackmania.

@Oubie I'm completely useless at racing games and I've had a great time playing Fast RMX. I struggling with the last two (of ten) championships on the lowest difficulty but it's still probably the best fun I've had on my Switch so far.

Most important part of those update notes are the "improved cpu ai". So does that mean no more ridiculous brutal rubber banding? Hope so.

@Oubie
As it is so fast it is initially a little difficult, but it gets much easier with only a little bit of practice - when you known when to slow down for certain corners for example. Repeat the first track a few times before moving onto the next track and you'll easily get the hang of the game. As someone else said, using the trigger buttons to slide around corners is a great tip.
This is an absolute bargain, better than many/most full price racing games, and should be on every Switch console.

@Marshi You ain't frickin lying there. Have loved this game since release but this side note on the CPU racer AI had me laser focused. xD If it weren't for the racers potentially being in one rank in a race and a totally different rank in another, not sure I could've kept a good enough pace to get a better rank. :V

You know, if this gets a physical after I buy it, I'll scream! Need to go through Shantae 1/2 Hero DLC first.

Excellent game just got more excellent.

Thanks, Shin'en, for giving us F-Zero when Nintendo wouldn't. This is such a great game and updates just keep making it better, and for free.

Kind of glad they fixed the hangup issue. I had run into that a couple of times and assumed my Switch needed to be turned off more often. Can't wait for this update!

I had that hanging screen, thought it was file corruption at one point.

Looking forward to this, loved this game and for some reason it plays much better on the Switch (based on my experience) than the Wii U's.

Hopefully a physical repease with all tracks and updates is forthcoming.

Hopefully these types of devs continue to shape the DLC market and help move developers away from paid DLC to some degree.

Good update! I finally got the hang of this game and my wnjotment rose as a result. This happened just before MK arrived and took up my driving . This update will have me back to it.

Willard Mine with Worms?!? That will be a challenge!!

@Oubie you shouldn't be scared of the difficulty, it's a great game, like Mario Kart has tournaments divided by three levels of difficulties, cc50, cc100, and cc150, Fast has Subsonic, Supersonic, and Hypersonic, so you can start from the easier and slower cups to learn how to play, switch phase, and get used to the various racing machines characteristics

Looking forward to these new tracks. I suck at the game (just like I was terrible at F-Zero) but it's still a blast to play.

Why are the ship asses so chunky? Also, the zoom effect is too strong - cant see whats coming.

Otherwise - truly fantastic game.

Love the music
Love the attitude

Awesome, so glad this game is getting free updates, I was practicing on the two cups I still haven't managed to place 3rd or higher in just the other day and enjoying how fun it is! Since we may not get an F-Zero anytime soon, this certainly fills that void and looks/sounds great while doing it

"A hang on the loading screen that happened when your Switch wasn't powered down for a month has been resolved..."

So there's still those people...

@Pahvi I think I've made a little breakthrough. I was tending to wait for my orb bar to fill up a bit before using boast - but by using boast almost always as soon as I have an orb or two I'm getting much better finishing places. There are exceptions when you need some reserve - such as at the end of the race for a quick last minute position save - or to stop yourself getting low-energy spin-outs by collisions in congested parts of the race. But It's made a fair sized difference to my race results - basically I was being to cautious with my boasts. Maybe this tip can be useful to others.

Can't wait to get a switch

@Oubie it's a lot easier than the wii u version. Once you've got the hang of the controls it's a joy to play.

@Oubie If you can play any games that take skill, you can play this. Skill level is around 5-7/10
