The Star Fox remake for Nintendo Switch 2 is set to release tomorrow, June 25, and a preorder discount remains available at select retailers. Physical copies can still be purchased for $49.94, a $10 reduction from the standard $59.99 price, at both Amazon and Walmart. This offer provides an opportunity to secure the game at a reduced cost ahead of its official launch.
This preorder discount is particularly notable given recent news of Nintendo adjusting pricing strategies, which previously saw physical Switch 2 games priced higher than their digital counterparts. The $10 off deal is not unique to Star Fox, as several other Switch 2 physical preorders are also currently on sale.
Reviews of the Star Fox remake have been positive. Jada Griffin awarded the game an 8/10, stating that it "proves the Arwing isn’t out of style quite yet." Griffin further elaborated that despite a long familiarity with Star Fox 64's content, the remake's updated visuals and new cutscenes were still enjoyable, evoking the feeling of performing a "barrel roll" for the first time.
For those looking to take advantage of current gaming deals, Amazon's Prime Day sale is ongoing. The event, extended to four days this year, offers numerous discounts. Prime members can find a selection of 35 gaming deals as part of the sale.
