It has been a while since F-Zero fans had a reason to celebrate. The last title came out nearly 20 years ago.

In the Spet. 14 Nintendo Direct, the company announced F-Zero 99. It’s a battle royale game where you and 98 other players race against each other on tracks from the 1990 F-Zero game.

The title will have the main mode and others, like Mini Prix and Grand Prix. You can also gain power-ups, including a Spin Attack and Super Sparks that will let you overtake opponents using the Skyway.

F-Zero 99 won’t come with revamped visuals. It stays true to its roots with retro SNES graphics.

The game is free to play for Nintendo Switch Online members only. Here are two ways to download it.
