"From the very first seconds"
Dizzying speed, razor-sharp drifts and a pilots' story inspired by the anime: this edition blends racing fury with a scripted adventure. Mastering the lines and grazing the track's edge delivers an instant rush. Snappy, rich in content and fiercely gripping, a must of futuristic racing to take everywhere.
Is F-Zero - GP Legend still worth playing in 2026?
A futuristic racer based on the anime, F-Zero GP Legend leans on a narrative Story mode and a wide roster of pilots from the show, on top of the saga's searing speed. The driving stays demanding, the sense of sliding and boosting thrilling, and the content generous. The presentation hits less hard than the launch version and the anime inspiration divides purists. A good snappy arcade racer, worth recommending to fans of F-Zero and fast two-dimensional racing.
