Fast Racing Neo (stylized as FAST Racing NEO) is a futuristic

Fast series, being the sequel to Fast Racing League. It is often compared to Nintendo's F-Zero franchise.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

Fast Racing Neo received generally positive reviews from critics. An enhanced version titled Fast RMX was released on the Nintendo Switch on 3 March 2017 as a launch title for the system.[7]

Gameplay

Fast Racing Neo is played using the left stick to steer, A to accelerate, B to brake, X or L to change phases, (colors between blue and orange) ZL and ZR to lean (drift) left and right respectively. Changing phases comes into play when, during a race, either blue or orange set pieces of the track are driven on. You would then change phases respective of the color to get a speed boost if done correctly. There are also phase boost pieces that will give you a boost through the air, or on to another part of the track. (I.e. over a gap.)

Reception

Fast Racing Neo received "generally favorable" reviews, according to video game review aggregator Metacritic.[8]

Dermot Creegan of Hardcore Gamer gave the game a 4 out of 5 saying, "FAST Racing NEO is challenging and riveting enough to keep players busy for a long while, whether driving solo or with friends."[10] Laura Kate Dale from Destructoid rated the game a 9/10 saying, "Fast Racing Neo made a strong impression right off the bat, and is easily one of my favorite games this year."[9]

DLC for the game was released on September 30, 2016, including 8 new tracks and 10 new vehicles.[12] A retail version of the game, including the DLC, was released, exclusive to Europe and Australia as a part of Nintendo's eShop Selects series.[13]
