Fast Fusion Brings Everyone's Favourite WipEout Rival To Switch 2

It looks AWESOME!

Having this and F-Zero GX (on NSO, which looks great) on day one is crazy.

Excellent. Shin'en always bring it.

Best announcement of the whole Direct aside from Mario Kart.

Is this a sequel to fast racing neo?
Or is it a different company making this?

There were only two developers that I was eagerly waiting for for a possible game reveal in this direct. 1. Monolithsoft and 2. Shin'en Multimedia!

At least one of them came through!

@Spider-Kev Read the first two paragraphs; you'll find your answer there

Gimme gimme gimme

@Spider-Kev really dude? Did you not read the article?

Probably a must have.

I swear at first I read the title as Fast Furious and I was like "What? When did they announce a Fast & Furious game for Switch 2?"

Shinen's games are beautiful, but I'm somehow equally impressed by how good F-Zero GX looks after 20 years.

This is the main reason I want a Switch 2 on launch day

Shin’en is back to get folk’s money at launch.

This feels like the unsung hero of the launch day line up. Mario Kart & Fast Fusion sound like a much better if games than Mario Kart and a paid tech demo and manual.

Shame it'll likely be overshadowed by F-Zero GX with online play

@DonkeyKongBigBoy @TheRazzBerry
Somehow, I skipped the first paragraph.
The second just made it seem like it was in the same vein as the other one.

@user0 Yes, I agree 👍

I did quite enjoy both previous entries though I never finished them. This will be a day 1 purchase for me regardless though! It almost seems to me like this series is gonna be synonym with Nintendo hardware day 1 releases.

@Apebitmusic Me too 😄

Wonder if we'll finally get a physical version of a FAST game. They are brilliant.

I bought the first Switch game pretty much to play in tabletop with my brother in the car whilst we waited for school pick up, I think I'll pick this up for the sake of the nostalgia.

Shin’en are quality, very consistent.

Having little else to rely on during Switch release window, Fast RMX got a lot of spotlight from Nintendo. They didn't disappoint and I'm glad that they're here for another release day game. I'm looking forward to comparing the two games side by side.

Whilst I am very happy this exists, I am simultaneously very disappointed to learn that Nintendo STILL haven’t outsourced a new F-Zero to Shin’en like they did GX to Sega to develop.

What are they DOING sitting on this?

@jwfurness Fast Racing Neo had a physical release on Wii U. At least in Europe.

I played both FAST and FAST RMX, and have always been a huge Shin'en fan. Really looking forward to this!

Fast RMX is one of my favorite Switch racing games. Happy to see the series still going.

@SBandy1 Amen... This will be a day one purchase for me I still play fast RMX every once in awhile, and it's such a good game, other thing is absolutely amazing what they can do with hardware.

@Sonicka seriously, they really need to do that because they have the tech know how. Basically they just would need some writers and some character development people from Nintendo, and it would be an absolute blockbuster.

Love to see Shin'en here, as they always bring their German engineering wizardry to the table for some amazing results.

I'd be surprised if they wouldn't also go for a 1080p120 mode here, as that would 100% make sense for a game like FAST. Love to see that HDR support as well. I hope it becomes the definitive norm for Switch 2 titles. Nintendo need to put their foot down on this, something Sony never managed to do in the PS4 era most of all!

I'll be grabbing this instead of MKW if I can't secure the bundle for $500

Oh wow, somehow I completely missed that this will be a launch title, that's awesome to hear
But that makes me wonder if there are any other launch titles I missed, is there an infographic somewhere?

Like others have said, this is definitely one of -the- highlights of the direct and can't wait!

Come on Shin'en release your games as physical copies!

@Sonicka Shin'en's made up of only a few people. They punch well above their weight, but they're not in a position to make the F-Zero GX sequel people want simply because of how tiny of a team they are

I'm glad Shin'en was able to get this made because its a good game

Shame we can't get Iridion or the Nano games..

IridionI&II is even on Steam

Fast's PhaseShift mechsnism was a bit offputting

@Ulysses A year I suppose. If they release a game you usually don't see Monolith release a second one on the same year. Since XCX just came out they would likely wait for another year or two. Even Torna and Future Redeemed were released almost half a year apart after the main games. At the very least I was hoping a teaser trailer or something for their next game. Maybe we could see one before the year ends.

I have FAST RMX on Nitnendo Switch.

This game is basically, Fast RMX 2.

Its a nice game. Not $80 nice, not $50 nice, maybe $15 nice.

I was waiting for this article! Somehow nintendolife missed it yesterday.
Knowing myself, this is probably the first game I'll play on Switch 2! Followed by F-Zero GX.

So what if Shin'en doesn't have a large collection of games? The games they have are top quality IMO.

Looking forward to another console launch with Fast along for the ride!

I think it’s brilliant this Nintendo-exclusive franchise still gets brought out for the new console. RMX is still one of the best looking games on the Switch 1 (check out the night time rain tracks) so this will be welcome.

This is the butter to Mario Kart World's bread. Looking at Shin'en's (eek!) site for Fast Fusion shows even better looking screenshots. I'm sure they'll hit a solid 60 fps, and doing so with 4K HDR will simply be awesome. It even appears that there will be a track in space!

Ya this game looks dope.

And we're finally getting F-Zero GX in HD with online. Hell hath indeed frozen over

I had wondered what these talented fellers had been up to

I loved Fast RMX!

Kinda hard to be a rival to a dead man....

An individual trailer would be nice.

So many racing games coming out!!
