Recently, we were able to play a few hours of Starlink: Battle for Atlas and in the process had the chance to capture some of that gameplay footage for you to watch.
One of the portions of Starlink that we were able to experience was that of the opening act. We played this opening on the Switch version of Starlink and as such, were able to see how Fox McCloud and his crew are integrated into the storyline. You can also get a better idea of the overall storyline of the game in addition to meeting many of the other characters and villains that will be present in this world.
On the gameplay front, you can also get a better look at just how Fox’s Arwing will work within Starlink. If you didn’t already know, the Arwing is the only ship within the game that has its own unique weapon set that doesn’t require you to attach the other cannons that other ships would normally use. That said, you still can attach those other weapons to the Arwing and you’ll see us use the hotswap functionality a couple different times over the course of this video.
You can find the new footage below if you’d like to check it out for yourself. Starlink: Battle for Atlas is due out next month on October 16 for PS4, Xbox One, and Switch. If you’d like to pre-order the game right now, you can pick up the Star Fox starter bundle over on Amazon right now.
