It's been an amazing year for video games so far with a number of high-profile releases such as The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Baldur's Gate 3. More recently was the arrival of Bethesda's long-awaited space RPG Starfield. It blends classic Bethesda role-playing action with spaceship dogfights that look like scenes out of a number of familiar sci-fi.
As part of this, players can also customise their ship and in the first few weeks there have already been recreations inspired by Star Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica and The Expanse. Now, to add to this, we've got one based on the Arwing from Star Fox series, courtesy of social media user 'BuckyArt1701'.
It's so impressive, that the official Starfield social media account has gone to the extent of sharing a number of screenshots:
Of course, this isn't the first video game-themed ship that's been crafted in Starfield. Other players have recreated the Normandy from the Mass Effect series, and some have even had a crack at recreating Samus' Gunship from the Metroid series.
Unfortunately, we haven't seen a new entry in the Star Fox series for some, so this Starfield recreation will have to do for now. If you are eager for some space dogfights on the Switch though, you could always boot up the Switch Online service and revisit some of Fox's classic experiences. Even Star Fox 2 is on there. Or, if you're more in the mood for some Bethesda gaming, you could always return to Skyrim on the Switch.
As for Starfield, you can learn more about it in the review and guides on our sibling website Pure Xbox. In its opening week alone, it's gone on to become Bethesda's biggest game launch ever - with more than six million players joining Constellation.
What do you think of this Arwing recreation in Starfield? Would you like to see Fox McCloud make a return? Tell us below.

Took them long enough!
This is really cool! I would love to be riding around in that!
That's awesome. Makes me really miss the Star Fox crew..
@tekoii probably would have had another one by now if it wasn't for Nintendo pushing their weird controls on people and for them trying to push toys later on.
I'm deeply entrenched in Starfield at the moment, and I WISH they would let you add these custom ships somehow. I like my Razorleaf, but COME ON!!!
Nintendo is so impressed that Doug Bowser actually met up with the people who made the ship to personally give them a cease and desist.
@N8tiveT3ch what are you talking? The last one was on Wii U and was an outstanding game. Maybe another will come to the new Nintendo system, we'll see.
Starfield looks incredibly generic, so it’s cool that people are spicing things up a bit.
Nintendo lawyers be like "Can't let you do that STARFIELD"
Was actually dreaming about Star Fox when my alarm woke me up this morning. How weird that one of the first articles I read on here after waking up is Star Fox-related!
@tabris95 Well they must have been at it ROFL!
As all screenshots have disappeared? I don't see any screenshots/pictures, just text?
if Nintendo dont see Star Fox worthy, sell the franchise and give to someone who actually will do a game worthy for the franchise, same as Donkey Kong
Now do this one!
Been checking the game out on Game Pass. If you don't take it seriously it can be fun and absolutely hilarious. Got all those classic Bethesda quirks I've heard about but without the game breaking bugs. Mannequin NPC's, being able to pick up and steal everything, even useless trash, without anyone caring, I've been having a blast just messing around with the AI and physics.
My game of the year tbh. i'm excited to play it like i was when i was making my way through elden ring. Normally i'm a big Zelda fan (i've beaten 15 of them) but haven't finished TOTK yet. I got a little OCD unlocking the light roots and burned out
Not pointy enough
Mods are gonna be crazy later on. Personally I am enjoying the stock ships. Just recently liberated this amazing ship from some pirates. Has enough room for a full crew and hits like a tank. Bounty hunting time!
Cant believe weve not had the mandatory "Do a barrel roll" comment.
@N8tiveT3ch Haha. I miss the simple on-rails with diverging paths and what not, but I also like Adventures and Assault. I feel like particularly Assault has such potential with the ability to be on foot, in the land-master, or piloting the Arwing. Online multiplayer would be awesome especially with the install base of something like the Switch. But hey, hopefully Nintendo will bring us something Star Fox in the future..
@Giancarlothomaz Why Should Nintendo sell Donkey Kong?
@iihiirii1985 because it seens Nintendo is not interested in doing a new Donkey Kong game, if they plan to put Donkey Kong on life suport, give the IP to someone would be more willing to suport the franchise
When give you an impression that Nintendo is not interested? Rumors that the next Game coming to Switch 2.
@Nintendo4Sonic @N8tiveT3ch
The WiiU Starfox game sucked.
It had horrendous controls.
The Switch has a StarFox game!
It's called StarLink and is awesome!
@tekoii
Play StarLink, it's a great StarFox game!

@Spider-Kev Haha. While it's not strictly a Starfox game.. I'm always tempted by the cameo. Could always pretend its a Starfox adventure.
…Or you could play Starlink. Finished that for you @nintendolife. Your welcome.
