In May 2019, game developer 34BigThings brought its sci-fi racing game Redout to the Nintendo Switch. The game was praised for its resemblance to the F-Zero series and managed to win over F-Zero fans for lack of a recent F-Zero title. Redout: Space Assault, unlike its predecessor, is not a racing game but a real on-rails space shooter, more in the spirit of the Star Fox series.
CCG writes - "Ever since Nintendo released the Star Fox series, which set the standard for arcade flight simulator rail shooting games (though this does have free-range flight levels too) most games after would attempt to emulate, it's no surprise that the creators of Redout: Space Assault attempted to make their spin on the genre, though it's not exactly a success in many ways."
XBA says: An on-rails shooter with some impressive space backdrop visuals.
Redout: Space Assault is an arcade space battle, coupling the trademark Redout adrenaline with the thrill of combat.
