help F-Zero GX FAQ

Who developed the GameCube racing game F-Zero GX?

F-Zero GX was co-developed by Nintendo and Sega's Amusement Vision studio, marking a rare collaboration for the franchise. It was released in 2003 exclusively for the Nintendo GameCube. The game famously ran on hardware built alongside its arcade counterpart, F-Zero AX.

Why is F-Zero GX considered so difficult?

The game is notorious for its blistering speeds, often exceeding 1,000 kilometers per hour, and highly aggressive AI opponents. Mastering the tracks requires precise boosting, cornering, and managing your energy meter. A single mistake at top speed usually results in instant destruction, forcing you to restart the entire Grand Prix.

Can you still play F-Zero GX on modern consoles?

No, F-Zero GX is not available on the Nintendo Switch's Nintendo Switch Online service. To play it today, you either need to dig out a GameCube and a physical disc, or run it via emulation on a PC. The game has never been re-released digitally since its original 2003 launch.

How do you unlock the AX tracks in F-Zero GX?

You can unlock the six tracks from the arcade version, F-Zero AX, by completing the challenging Story Mode on specific difficulty levels. Alternatively, they could be unlocked by physically using a memory card at an F-Zero AX arcade cabinet. These tracks feature unique zero-gravity tube designs that completely change the racing mechanics.
