Star Fox 64, a beloved Nintendo 64 game from 1997, is now available to play on PC, and the best part is—it’s completely free.

Nintendo is well-known for protecting its intellectual properties, often taking down fan-made projects and even going after developers like those behind Palworld.

While Nintendo has been strict about stopping unauthorized use of its games, it can sometimes be slow to release its classic titles for sale on modern platforms like the Nintendo eShop.

Instead, fans often rely on the Nintendo Switch Online subscription service to get access to older games. But what if you could play one of these classics on PC for free? That’s exactly what’s happening with Star Fox 64 (also known as Lylat Wars in Europe).

This native PC port of Star Fox 64, now called Starship, has been created with original assets, avoiding Nintendo’s copyright issues. To play it, you will need the official ROM file, which helps the project stay under the radar of Nintendo’s lawyers.

While it’s unclear if Nintendo will take action against this project, fans can enjoy the game right now without paying a dime.

For those who want the official version, Star Fox 64 is available on the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion tier.

Star Fox 64 is a classic, and now it’s easier than ever to enjoy it on PC.
