News F-Zero Inspired Racer 'Aero GPX' Launches In Early Access Today

[admin]

​

Nintendo's F-Zero series has inspired all sorts of futuristic racing games over the years, and the latest one to arrive on the scene is Aero GPX.

This Kickstarter project by solo developer Aaron McDevitt has launched this week on PC (via Steam Early Access) and is described as an anti-gravity racer channelling F-Zero X and F-Zero GX. A few other Nintendo inspirations include Wave Race 64 for the "uplifting, arcade-like summer vibe" and Kirby Air Ride, for its "simple-to-pick-up nature".

​

As noted in our previous coverage of this game, a Switch release is in consideration, but right now the main focus is on PC:

"Aero GPX belongs on the Switch just as much as it belongs on the PC. It also belongs on other consoles to give all players the opportunity to experience the distinct and relentless anti-gravity racing experience that Aero GPX provides.

"Depending on the possible success of the Kickstarter campaign past the initial funding goal, more options might be able to be explored. However, a PC release is all that can be committed to for now."
