F-Zero 99 2023
F-Zero 99 is an online multiplayer racing game released in 2023 by Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch. It is published by Nintendo and developed by Nintendo Software Technology. The game was made available as a free download for members of the Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) service. It marks the first F-Zero title since Climax in 2004, and is the fourth 99-style NSO battle-royale game. Based on the original 1990 Super Nintendo Entertainment System title, it uses a battle royale format where players race against up to 98 other online competitors. The goal is to outlast others and win the race while avoiding elimination. Players start with a power meter that depletes when damaged, ending their participation if fully drained. A player can gain extra power by knocking out opponents with low energy. Additionally, collecting Super Sparks on tracks grants access to a Skyway above the main road, allowing temporary speed boosts to overtake others. This game features multiplayer modes and is part of the NSO service offerings.
