F-Zero (2019)

F-Zero is an upcoming reboot of the F-Zero series, slated for a release in 2019. The game combines the fast-paced racing of the previous games in the series with action-adventure segments taking place outside of the vehicle and includes an extensive story mode as its main attraction, which ignores or reframes much of the lore from past games.

Samurai Goroh	
Age: 44
Home: Red Canyon
Machine: Fire Stingray (#5)

Dr. Stewart 	
Age: 42
Home: Mute City
Machine: Golden Fox (#3)
Description: Son of the famous F-Zero racer Kevin Stewart, Robert's father urged him to pursue a career as a surgeon rather than a racer. However, after failing to save his father from a deadly injury he received during a race, Robert retired from surgery and began training to follow in his father's footsteps.

Pico 	
Age: 124
Home: Devil's Forest
Machine: Wild Goose (#6)
Description: A war veteran of the Poripoto Army, Pico is known across the galaxy for his brutal strategies and reckless driving. People have petitioned for years to have him banned from the Grand Prix, but the aces up his sleeve always keep him coming back.

John Tanaka 	
Age: 27
Home: White Land
Machine: Wonder Wasp (#26)

Black Shadow 	
Age: Unknown
Home: Unknown
Machine: Black Bull (#30)
Description: Only one fact is known about Black Shadow: he despises Captain Falcon with every fiber of his being. But despite his open attempts on the bounty hunter's life, he has managed to stay out of trouble with the law in an even more impressive manner than Captain Falcon's himself.
Rumor has it: There are many theories about Black Shadow's true identity; some argue that he is merely a ruse created by the heads of the F-Zero Grand Prix to create suspense in their races.
Blood Falcon 	
Age: 36
Home: Unknown
Machine: Blood Hawk (#25)
Description: A man of mysterious origins, Blood Falcon's resemblance to Captain Falcon is a coincidence -- probably.
Rumor has it: Blood Falcon's connection to Captain Falcon is a matter of much speculation. One popular theory is that he was once a fan who was rejected by the famous racer and dedicated his life to outdoing him; another claim he is a genetically engineered clone.
The Skull 	
Age: Unknown
Home: Unknown
Machine: Sonic Phantom (#16)
Description: The Skull is the reborn corpse of an F-Zero racer killed in a violent accident. The circumstances surrounding his resurrection are unclear, but his goal is evident: to take advantage of his newfound invincibility to finally fulfill his life goal of winning the F-Zero Grand Prix.
Rumor has it: It is unknown which F-Zero racer the Skull is the corpse of; some speculate that even the Skull himself is unsure.
Antonio Guster 	
Age: 44
Home: Red Canyon
Machine: Green Panther (#17)
Description: Antonio Guster is a member of Samurai Goroh's bandits from Red Canyon. However, with little skill in combat, Antonio usually stays in the shadows during their heists. He is also the brother of Samurai Goroh's wife, Lisa Brilliant.
Rumor has it: Since he pales in popularity compared to Samurai Goroh, many fans believe Antonio Guster holds a secret grudge against his leader.
Lisa Brilliant 	
Age: 36
Home: Red Canyon
Machine: Emerald Panther (#33)
Description: Like her husband, Lisa Brilliant is a well-known criminal; her hacker skills are commonly believed to be what saves her family from arrest. She is also the sister of fellow racer Antonio Guster.
Rumor has it: Lisa Brilliant is almost certainly older than she claims, and some claim that she and Antonio are actually twins. Her name is also likely a pseudonym -- one insider states that she uses it to hide her real name, Agathe Guster, which embarrasses her.
Daigoroh 	
Age: 10
Home: Red Canyon
Machine: Silver Rat (#35)
Description: The son of legendary racers Samurai Goroh and Lisa Brilliant, Daigoroh was always expected to follow in his parents' footsteps -- however, few would have guessed just how soon he would make his debut in the F-Zero Grand Prix.
Rumor has it: Some fans think Daigoroh hopes that winning the F-Zero Grand Prix will mend his parents' relationship.
Jack Levin 	
Age: 19
Home: Big Blue
Machine: Astro Robin (#14)
Description: A famous pop star, Jack Levin was recruited by the F-Zero Grand Prix to be the face that would attract younger crowds. He is known more for his good looks and singing than his racing skills, but he is not to be underestimated as a pilot.
Rumor has it: Although official word is that he plans to use the prize money of the F-Zero Grand Prix to buy a ring to propose to his long-term girlfriend, Janet Galactica, an insider states that he has been having an affair with his F-Zero trainer, Mrs. Arrow.
Kate Alen 	
Age: 25
Home: Big Blue
Machine: Super Piranha (#12)
Description: A famous pop diva, Kate Alen was known more for her problematic lifestyle than her talent. After a near-death experience involving contraband, Kate Alen retired from the music business and dedicated her life to racing.
Rumor has it: Insiders state that Kate Alen's struggles with addiction were a means of coping with the life of a star, which was forced upon her by her mother, a failed pop diva herself. Now that she is an F-Zero racer, she is clean -- and has not been in communication with her mother for months.
Roger Buster 	
Age: 41
Home: Port Town
Machine: Mighty Hurricane (#28)
Description: Roger Buster stumbled upon his career as an F-Zero racer quite accidentally: while running a delivery, he made a wrong turn and ended up on a race track, coming in third place without even knowing what was going on. Since then, he has been a force to be reckoned with on the circuit.
Rumor has it: Despite supposedly being an ordinary delivery vehicle rather than an F-Zero racer, the Mighty Hurricane is able to compete with even the top racers in the Grand Prix, leading some to believe Roger Buster's supposed accidental entry into the Grand Prix is naught more than a publicity stunt.
Super Arrow 	
Age: 28
Home: Mute City
Machine: King Meteor (#20)
Description: Super Arrow has dedicated his life to keeping people safe, even in the rough-and-tumble world of F-Zero, and that is why he and his wife started the F-Zero Academy, to train young racers in safe driving. He also hopes to keep a close eye on the F-Zero Grand Prix's wealth of criminals, especially Zoda.
Rumor has it: Even though their public image is without blemish, many speculate that Super Arrow and Mrs. Arrow's marriage is tearing at the seams, with some blaming it on Super Arrow's obsession with Zoda.
Mrs. Arrow 	
Age: 23
Home: Mute City
Machine: Queen Meteor (#21)
Description: Mrs. Arrow is the wife of the famous Super Arrow and has similarly dedicated her life to training young racers on how to stay alive in the F-Zero Grand Prix. Despite her youth, Mrs. Arrow is a more experienced racer than her husband.
Rumor has it: Mrs. Arrow is often spotted in the company of young men away from her husband, most notably former student Jack Levin. This, combined with rumors of their marriage falling apart, has garnered her many accusations of adultery.
Zoda 	
Age: 28
Home: Sand Ocean
Machine: Death Anchor (#13)
Description: Zoda was one of the galaxy's worst criminals, wanted for many years for murder; however, after his arrest, he was let out of prison for good behavior and claimed to have changed, pursuing F-Zero races as a more legal means of letting out his "extra energy".
Rumor has it: There have been rumors tossed around for years that Zoda is plotting something big, but he always seems to maintain his squeaky clean new life.
Bio Rex 	
Age: 9
Home: Fire Field
Machine: Big Fang (#15)
Description: Created through bioengineering by EAD, Bio Rex's goal is to prove he is superior to all humankind. He is constantly hungry, but is able to prevent himself from attacking his fellow racers by keeping meat within his vehicle.
Rumor has it: EAD's motives for creating Bio Rex are unclear, leading some to speculate he was intended to be weaponized before developing sentience.
Mr. EAD 	
Age: 7
Home: Fire Field
Machine: Great Star (#9)
Description: An android developed by EAD, the F-Zero Grand Prix is intended to be a final test for Mr. EAD before he accomplishes his true purpose. What exactly that purpose is is anyone's guess.
Rumor has it: Some speculate Mr. EAD was inspired by Don Genie's favorite video game.
Don Genie 	
Age: 65
Home: Fire Field
Machine: Fat Shark (#31)
Description: As the billionaire head of EAD, Don Genie's motivations for joining the F-Zero Grand Prix are unclear. However, he seems to hold a special interest in Captain Falcon.
Rumor has it: It is unclear what exactly EAD develops and how Don Genie made his fortune, leading some to believe that the money was gathered illegally.
Silver Neelsen 	
Age: 98
Home: Port Town
Machine: Night Thunder (#23)
Description: Although many take his age as a weakness and claim he should retire, Silver Neelsen wears his gray hair with pride, as it means he has lasted almost a century without being killed in an F-Zero race. However, he has become somewhat crotchety in his old age, expressing disdain towards the newfangled machines.
Rumor has it: Though he denies it, insiders claim that Silver Neelsen was responsible for training many talented racers, including Captain Falcon, Dr. Stewart, and Mrs. Arrow.
Gomar & Shioh 	
Age: 102
Home: Devil's Forest
Machine: Twin Noritta (#22)
Description: The Furikake people are known for mating twice in their life: once at birth with someone of the same gender for defense purposes, and a second time at age 100 with someone of the opposite gender for reproductive purposes. Gomar and Shioh are one of the former pairs and perform as one person.
Rumor has it: Due to Gomar and Shioh having not found mates yet despite having passed the traditional age, many speculate that they have decided to break Furikake tradition; however, both deny these claims and insist they simply haven't found the right person due to their racing career.
QQQ 	
Age: Unknown
Home: Port Town
Machine: Rolling Turtle (#39)
Description: Originally developed by EAD for the Galactic Police Force, QQQ was destroyed during a chase through Port Town. Its parts were later found and repaired by Captain Falcon, who now uses it as a personal assistant.

Deathborn 	
Age: Unknown
Home: Unknown
Machine: Dark Schneider (#00)
Description: ERROR
Rumor has it: ERROR
==Story==
Each of the three stories occurs simultaneously, with chapters separated by F-Zero Grand Prix races. Each chapter consists of several missions, interlaced with fully voice-acted cutscenes. Missions come in four different "styles", two of which (Racing and Travel) take place in the vehicle while the other two (Exploration and Combat) take place in the overworld. Before the player can move on to a Grand Prix race, they must complete the corresponding chapter for all three routes.
===Captain Falcon: Darkness Rises===
====Chapter One: Interruption====
Captain Falcon is seen racing the Blue Falcon around his personal practice course in Port Town, while QQQ cheers him on from inside the Falcon Flyer.
*MISSION: Complete five laps!
**Style: Racing
**Location: Port Town Practice Course
**Notes: Watch out for obstacles! More will appear on each consecutive lap.
After completing the fifth lap, Captain Falcon emerges from the Blue Falcon and uses his communication device to ask QQQ why it kept adjusting the difficulty. QQQ is confused as it did no such thing, leading Captain Falcon to realize someone else was in control just as another missile comes hurtling at him, sending him and the Blue Falcon flying. QQQ quickly comes to check on him and he assures the robot that he's fine before using his blaster to take out the cannons around the course. The Blue Falcon is, unfortunately, damaged, but QQQ assures Captain Falcon that he will be able to fix it before the Grand Prix. In the meantime, Captain Falcon decides to do some reconnaissance to see if he can find who hacked his system.
*MISSION: Find Silver Neelsen!
**Style: Exploration
**Location: Port Town Dock 023
**Notes: Stay away from thugs! They all want a piece of you.
Silver shows disdain at Captain Falcon's arrival, knowing he always brings trouble, but Captain Falcon ignores his complaints and gets to the point, asking if he knows who hacked into his system. Silver plays dumb as to why Captain Falcon would expect him to know, even as Captain Falcon states that the old man has eyes everywhere, but eventually relents and reveals that Black Shadow has been allowed back into the Grand Prix. Captain Falcon is shocked and questions how this is possible, since the criminal had previously been banned for his brutality, but Silver insists he doesn't know any of the details, only that Black Shadow is on the roster. Bothered, Captain Falcon decides to head back to his base to up his security measures and prepare for Black Shadow's inevitable attack during the race. As he emerges from Silver's house, he spots a strange figure, strongly resembling him, watching from a nearby roof. However, when he calls out to the figure, it retreats. Pursuing on foot, Captain Falcon uses his communication device to ask QQQ if the Blue Falcon is ready, which QQQ confirms as the Falcon Flyer appears overhead and drops the Blue Falcon, allowing the Captain to quickly board. As he races after the figure, it boards its own vehicle.
*MISSION: Catch that spy!
**Style: Travel
**Location: Port Town Sea
**Notes: Watch out for attacks and don't run out of energy!
The spy manages to escape by going through a closing gate, but Captain Falcon is able to snap a photo before the gate completely closes. Aboard the Falcon Flyer, QQQ attempts to identify the spy, but all of the results claim that it is Captain Falcon himself. However, QQQ states that they do not have time to ponder the mystery any further, as they must get to Mute City for the first Grand Prix race.
====Chapter Two: Familiar====
Following the race, Captain Falcon informs QQQ that the spy participated in the race and asks him to research the new racer. QQQ locates a video interview where the man introduces himself as Blood Falcon and shrugs off the reporter's comment on his resemblance to Captain Falcon, insisting that the only thing that matters is that he will always outdo the captain. As Captain Falcon observes Black Shadow and Blood Falcon speaking, he and QQQ determine that Blood Falcon must be Black Shadow's subordinate. Thus, Captain Falcon decides to follow the doppelganger as he departs.
*MISSION: Follow Blood Falcon!
**Style: Exploration
**Location: Around Mute City
**Notes: Don't lose track of him, but don't get spotted!
Captain Falcon's pursuit is interrupted by an irate Roger Buster, who accuses Captain Falcon of thievery. As he is unable to get the deliveryman to elaborate further, Captain Falcon reluctantly engages him in combat.
*MISSION: Defeat Roger Buster!
**Style: Combat
**Location: Downtown Mute City
**Notes: He's powerful, but slow -- use this to your advantage!
As an injured Roger collapses, Captain Falcon contacts QQQ, only to learn that the robot has already lost track of Blood Falcon. Infuriated, Captain Falcon grabs Roger by the throat and demands to know why the deliveryman interrupted him. Realizing that the captain really is clueless, Roger explains that he was supposed to make a delivery to White Land immediately following the race, but the package was stolen and security cameras show Captain Falcon as the culprit. QQQ suggests that it must have been Blood Falcon until Captain Falcon points out that he tracked the doppelganger until Roger interrupted them, leaving no time for Blood Falcon to have committed the crime. Seeking answers, Captain Falcon demands that Roger take him to where the package was stolen from so that he can view the footage. Although Roger warns him that the place is surrounded by the Galactic Police Force, Captain Falcon agrees to take the risk.
*MISSION: Infiltrate the crime scene!
**Style: Exploration
**Location: Around Mute City
**Notes: Don't get caught by the police!
Once they reach the security office, Roger attempts to show Captain Falcon the footage, only to find that it has been deleted. Captain Falcon sees the Blood Hawk fleeing and orders QQQ to track its signal. QQQ tells him that he will have to stay close to the machine in order for the robot to lock onto it, so Captain Falcon quickly summons the Blue Falcon.
*MISSION: Keep up with the Blood Hawk!
**Style: Travel
**Location: Mute City Outskirts
**Notes: Stay close enough for QQQ to track the signal, but watch out for attacks!
The Blood Hawk careens into a wall and explodes. Captain Falcon emerges from the Blue Falcon to check the wreckage to find Blood Falcon barely alive. Blood Falcon refuses to answer the captain's questions, instead responding ominously that "there will always be more." QQQ warns Captain Falcon to get away just as Captain Falcon hears a beeping sound; he manages to jump away just as Blood Falcon explodes. QQQ is able to trace where the Blood Hawk has been, confirming what Blood Falcon implied; this Blood Hawk was nowhere near the Grand Prix race nor the crime scene at the time of the package's disappearance, but instead came straight from Sand Ocean to apparently delete the security footage; thus, there are at least two more Blood Falcons out there somewhere. They decide to do further investigations during the next Grand Prix race at Sand Ocean.
===Samurai Goroh: Karma Strikes===
====Chapter One: Missing====
Samurai Goroh is seen fighting hordes of his own bandits as others cheer for him.
*MISSION: Take down the bandits!
**Style: Combat
**Location: Red Canyon Hideout
**Notes: Don't let yourself get flanked! Try to keep all of the bandits ahead of you.
Once the last bandit is thrown to the ground, Samurai Goroh strikes a pose and announces his superiority as the rest of his bandits cheer. The celebration is interrupted by Antonio Guster entering and informing Samurai Goroh that he has a message from his wife. Clearly frustrated, Samurai Goroh orders Antonio to send her away, but he explains that the message is a digital one and seemed urgent. Samurai Goroh reluctantly opens the message, which reveals Lisa Brilliant and Daigoroh tied up in an unknown location, Lisa being held at gunpoint as she informs Samurai Goroh that they are being held for ransom and for him to come to Devil's Forest before sunset if he ever wants to see them again. Samurai Goroh is horrified and immediately prepares the Stingray Jet for departure, leaving Antonio in charge.
*MISSION: Reach the rendezvous point before sunset!
**Style: Travel
**Location: Deep Within Devil's Forest
**Notes: Don't crash into a tree, but don't waste time!
When Samurai Goroh arrives at the rendezvous point, he is shocked to see Pico and demands to know why Pico would kidnap his family. Pico insists that it's nothing personal and that he's being paid, then draws his weapon.
*MISSION: Defeat Pico!
**Style: Combat
**Location: Deep Within Devil's Forest
**Notes: The longer the battle takes, the darker it gets. Try to win while you can still see!
As Pico collapses, he congratulates Samurai Goroh but reveals that he does not have Lisa or Daigoroh. Samurai Goroh is furious and threatens to kill him, but Pico reminds him that they are both racers in the F-Zero Grand Prix and he will be kicked out if he murders a fellow racer. Pico apologizes once more but insists that he cannot tell Samurai Goroh anything else except that his family will be safe for the time being. An infuriated Samurai Goroh punches Pico, knocking him unconscious, before departing for Mute City for the first Grand Prix race.
===Jody Summer: Legacy Crumbles===
====Chapter One: Mystery====
Jody Summer is seen piloting the White Cat through White Land when John Tanaka pulls up alongside her and challenges her to a race back to the Galactic Police Force HQ, which Jody accepts.
*MISSION: Beat John to HQ!
**Style: Travel
**Location: White Valley
**Notes: Watch out for snowballs rolling down the mountains!
When Jody beats him back, John jokingly demands a rematch, but Jody tells him that it'll have to be another time as she has some personal business to attend to. John realizes that Jody is still trying to solve the mystery of her father's death and tries to dissuade her, asking when she last found a breakthrough. Despite the trail apparently being cold, Jody refuses to give up and insists that she knows the answers are out there waiting for her to find them. Just as she says this, she receives a message from an anonymous sender telling her to meet them at certain coordinates alone for information on her father. John is suspicious of the timing and tries to go with her, but she pointedly reminds him that the message said alone before departing.
*MISSION: Reach the rendezvous point!
**Style: Exploration
**Location: White Land Peak
**Notes: Try not to disturb the local wildlife! They aren't afraid to protect their turf.
Jody finds a cloaked figure at the rendezvous point and slowly approaches. The figure's voice is disguised as they ensure that Jody is alone and order her not to get any closer. When she demands to know why they messaged her, they explain that they were close friends with her father and know what happened to him. They pull something out of their cloak and hold it towards Jody, stepping closer, but before they can hand it to her, John shouts for them to freeze. They immediately drop the object and flee. As Jody picks it up, she angrily reprimands John for not listening to her and he says he thought the figure was about to shoot her. She orders him to stay put as she pursues the figure.
*MISSION: Catch the mysterious figure!
**Style: Exploration
**Location: White Land Peak
**Notes: Be careful where you step as you head down the mountain! The ground isn't completely stable.
The figure escapes as John warns Jody that they are going to be late for the Grand Prix race. Still furious with him, she insists that she'll find her own way to Mute City and storms off. As she leaves, he asks what the figure was giving her, and she shows him a small pad of paper with the number 20 written on it.
===Grand Prix Missions===
A Grand Prix mission takes place between each chapter. Any of the three characters can be used to complete it; the character chosen must come in the top five to continue. Twenty characters appear as racers, with Lisa Brilliant, Daigoroh, Deathborn, and QQQ being absent. While no plot information is garnered from the Grand Prix races, some plot-related hazards may occur.
*1: MUTE CITY GRAND PRIX
**Hazards: N/A
==Courses==
F-Zero features courses set in eight different locations: Mute City, Sand Ocean, Devil's Forest, Big Blue, Port Town, Red Canyon, White Land, and Fire Field. Each location has one "Grand Prix" circuit seen in Adventure Mode's Grand Prix races, which are longer than normal courses and consist of five laps.
