The Star Fox 64 remake is out on Nintendo Switch 2, and Nintendo is supporting it with a soundtrack drop and a free Battle Mode update. Nintendo added 62 Star Fox tracks to Nintendo Music on September 30, the same day a free update added three Battle Mode stages and split-screen play for up to four players on one console.
The Star Fox remake of Star Fox 64 launched June 25 on Nintendo Switch 2. An overview trailer in early June showed characters, stages, and Battle Mode. The remake keeps the original layout and mechanics while adding cinematic briefings, fully voiced dialogue, an orchestral soundtrack, Challenge Mode, and a multiplayer Battle Mode with 4-on-4 fights.
On September 30, Nintendo added 62 Star Fox tracks to Nintendo Music. The set includes "Corneria," "Star Wolf," and "Sector Y & Solar." The same day, a free update for the game added three Battle Mode stages: Katina, Sector X, and Venom. The update also supports split-screen play for up to four players on one Nintendo Switch 2 console.
Across both stories, Nintendo has kept the remake moving after release rather than treating it as a one-time launch. The game arrived weeks after the Switch 2 itself, with the overview trailer arriving in early June. The soundtrack drop and the free update landed on the same day, which ties Nintendo Music to the Switch 2 release.
