    Having such a blast with it. This game will be for you if 1) you like spaceships customization 2) well crafted space shooter gameplay 3) STARFOX! The story is simple enough that you can simply enjoy it, the controls are tight and well thought and the universe is so cool to explore. The fact that you can take this with you on the go is so amazing! A must buy.

    I've following this game since last year and I'm quite happy with the final game. Being a Starfox fan I couldn't have missed this on Switch. It plays nice on the Switch (solid 30fps docked as far as I can tell), it's fun to play and fun to watch. Love the light RPG elements here and there and love the Starfox integration, oh and the Co-op option too.

The toys are actually really good and I will be displaying my Arwing on my shelve for many years.… Expand

    Having an incredible time with this game. It has planet and species exploration, action, great characters (including StarFox), brutal weapons, memorable ships and a great storyline. One of the year's Highlights for me!

    A friend gave me the starter kit to this game for my birthday. I honestly was not sure I would enjoy it but just now after defeating Grax I can 100% say do not sleep on this game!

    Starlink is addictive and enjoyable. The gameplay is seamless and I will be honest I never use the toys. Ubisoft was really really smart making this co-op out of the box on switch. You have everything you need to play couch co-op from the very first mission to the very last. Not only that I found NO ISSUE with co-op play. It was super enjoyable and in my opinion the best co-op games on switch right now. You can seamlessly pop in and out of play and your friend can just keep going with no need to restart the game just a quick menu press. You can both you ALL of the unlocked weapons ships etc. So you are not limited digitally even if you have one of the toys. and the split screen is really really well done that you never worry about camera issues or screen cramping.

    I decided to pick up some additional toys for my copy of the game so I picked up the Neptune Ship pack because I liked the look of the pilot. A Kharl Zeon Pilot. Same reason and the Crusher Weapon pack. All of this cost me about $75CND or $50USD. It was a worth while add on. These simple changes gave me a third ship. The ships are important because each one is like a life in the game. If you loose one you can use another but once you run out you have to pay to start over. It gave me a nice spread of elemental weapon options and it allowed me to play the starlink story without fox and side missions and the starfox story after my first complete playthough. The mission system is really smartly designed allowed you to control how you play so if you just want to play the starfox content which their is A LOT of you can. I appreciated the control to do this because it made it seem like you are getting 1.5 times the game this way.

    I am holding back from giving the game a perfect score however. While their is a decent amount of variety in the missions and the game is completely action packed. It's never boring. It does start to repeat a lot of the same missions. Go to a planet. Build outposts, kill primes repeat. While their is more exploration then just this and you can help locals and gather rate items and fuse mods to level up your ship etc. The voice acting and dialog is quire reused. The plants while they are different are still very much the same. I would have liked to see different types of aliens different challenges like maybe Observatories are harder to build on one planet then another etc. I wish each planet had a bonus and a draw back the player needed to figure out. The last thing this game is missing is Online Co-Op. If Ubisoft makes a sequel and I really hope the do and if they address these few minor issues and add online co-op it would easily be the BEST space exploration/Starfox game to date. Saying that Starlink is right next to Starfox 64 as one of the best Star Fox games ever made. You don't feel like he was just tossed in at all! If you are looking for the best way to buy this title I recommend the digital deluxe pack. It's the same price as the starter kit but comes with all of this ships, pilots etc unlocked and their is no need for toys at all to play. This is the only game I can honestly say it is of great benefit to go digital over physical!    … Expand

    Excellent and underrated game - very much in the spirit of Star Fox. Playing this on easy, it offers a nice, relaxing experience of combat, levelling and exploration in an an open world / star system which reminds me of playing Skyrim.

It feels more like Ubisoft is trying to make an appeal to make a full-blooded Star Fox game, and they hit pretty damn on the mark.

    The physical collectibles are astonishingly well done, and outside of the pilot figures have very good profiles that would make for very good displays even when your playing days are largely done.

    While a novel idea, it DOES get quite repetitive over time. There aren't that many different things to do, and not that many different types of opponents to square off against. This is the sort of game that is probably best played in short bursts rather than hours long marathons.

    On top of that, while the actual game story isn't BAD... it's not exactly GREAT either. There was potential there, but it very clearly took a far back seat to the gameplay, which if you're someone who values narrative IS a detriment.

    All said and done, it's a good title. Could be better, and if toys-to-life still had some life, I'd say that it'd deserve a sequel (compatible with the first set of toys, of course). But this is overwhelmingly likely to be the only iteration... and fortunately it stands on its own more than well enough.    … Expand

    I'm 38 and really enjoying the toys lol, it's so snap and one thing I noticed no one tells, the light from the Nintendo grip, there is blue led light in the ships, Arwing with light or Neptune.....awesome. The gameplay can at first hand look a bit repeatable BUT when you get 20-30 hours gameplay - you'll see how the whole star system is alive....I'm amazed. I left planet Haven from start which gave me a challenge last night.....the WHOLE PLANET was invaded, oh dear! Game on!
    The game runs incredieble fantastic on the Switch docked/handled (omg, handled I can continue in bed digitally :P) - graphics WAUVV, the lightning and textures. Sounds is also really intop that universe......I loveeeee the sound in my subwoofer when I'm leaving the planets atmospheres, BOOMMMM and TOTAL silence in space :P ...the Prime battle music is also epic.
    Fox and his team is merged beautiful into the storyline + the Wolf Star hunt is amazing.

The combat system is unbelievably rewarding and fun, the planets are gorgeous, and the story is not terrible as some people claim, I'm really enjoying the game a lot, but I can see why some people complain and I understand them. hopefully ubisoft releases a a where some of this issues are addressed and I'll be even happier, and if there is a Starlink 2 and all in to rock and roll! :D… Expand

    Starlink est un bon jeu, malgré certaines critiques un peu trop sévère et d'autres un peu trop démonstrative.
    c'est un jeu Ubisoft et comme quasiment tous les jeux Ubisoft, l'exploration ets basé sur le principe du déblocage des pylone pour avoir la vision, faire les quetes, puis débloquer un autre point et ainsi de suite.
    Le pilotage du vaisseau est trés arcade, mais trés instinctif et fluide. La caméra est peut etre un tout petit peu trop prés mais c'est un petit détail.
    Pour moi le seul gros point noir du jeu c'est que le tutoriel explique pas grand chose et beaucoup de mécanique sont a découvrir par soit-même au fil du jeu et/ou en faisant des tests.
    AU niveau figurine, elles sont de trés bonne qualité et on sens bien le poids sur la manette.
    Pour les histoire, cellle de Fox est plutot sympa pour Mason je ne l'ai pas encore faites.

    Tout le jeu peu se finir avec le starter pack et le vaisseau de base ce qui est vraiment sympa si on ne veut pas dépenser trop d'argent dans les figurines.

The toys are everything for me, I love games that bring toys to life and do it the right way. I could never get into Skylanders or anything of that sort because it was a bit too childish for me. But this game is the right balance, it could be fun for a kid or (a nerdy adult like myself). The toys are totally affordable right now, so of course I went mad with purchasing every single ship and every weapon pack, along with pilots too. The toys are well-made and detailed, they look nice on a display shelf. There is so much to do!!! You can identify species on different planets, collect loot, take down bad guys with awesome weapons, travel space, take part in dog fights with space pirates. If you like space and flying, just get this game. If you are a collector, get the physical edition, if not, get the digital deluxe. Just make sure you realize what you are getting into with the physical edition. Weapon types matter, pilots do as well, and ships count as lives.
    P.S. As many reviewers have mentioned, Star Fox was made for this game, Ubisoft knows what they are doing when it comes to working with Nintendos' tech at this point, and their characters shine with the Snowdrop engine.

    Also the game asks you to spend quite a bit of time doing side content so that you can build up alliance meters, gather materials and build structures on planets. I enjoyed doing this so it feels like a minor complaint but it just seems like too much of the game is spent doing side content which can involve fighting the same bosses again and again.
    Like I said, this game has some problems, but visually it looks pretty great, the combat and flight controls feel very solid and I had a lot of fun exploring and shooting aliens. It also feels pretty rewarding to watch as a planet which has been covered in some rather sinister fog, gradually turns in a clear skyed paradise thanks to your help.
    I'd definitely recommend it if you can get it on sale but i'm not sure it'd worth 60.
    Would I like to see a sequel? Not particularly.. but i'd love to see the devs make a full on starfox game. I think with this foundation and those characters they could make something pretty great :).    … Expand

I love everything that can be done in the game and everything that needs to be recovered to be able to do things in it, you can expand the game a lot and that's appreciated. If it has popping and a thousand things but that's not why a game has to be bad...we have the spiderman of play or the red dead 2 and everyone is like crazy...because that a game misunderstood like the xenoblade 2...things of life....… Expand

    Basically, if you play on Switch and use Fox, this is a Starfox game. The game iook's good, it plays good, and the story is great. There is a lot to do on each planet, but once you beat the game, it does get repetitive because the only thing left to do is take over the same outposts on different planets. But like I said, the story is great and it's fun and very addicting. If you loveBasically, if you play on Switch and use Fox, this is a Starfox game.

    Starlink as a new franchise isn't perfect, but it's still a whole lot of fun. [Issue #37 – January/February 2019, p. 71]

    It's a shame that, for all those nifty custom USB sockets, there's no real connection to be found here. [Christmas 2018, p.112]

    Starlink: Battle for Atlas is a surprise hit for Nintendo Switch. Furthermore, embedding Star Fox in was a masterstroke. From a surprisingly good score and audio cues from characters, to stunning vistas and scenery, there are many positives to be had. There will be many who appreciate the large number of tasks to do, but others will be deterred by the repetitiveness of them, although these are largely optional. The main issue is essentially asking what point of sale is the best value for money as no option is cheap.
