Aaron McDevitt has just released on Steam Early Access a new F-Zero-inspired machine racing game, called Aero GPX. Aero GPX is basically an F-Zero clone for the PC, and as you will see it looks bloody incredible.
Aero GPX is an anti-gravity racer that is focused on high velocity, flight, machine-to-machine combat, and responsive controls that are simple to pick up but difficult to master. There are 30 machines on the circuit for each race. Pilots fight for the best position possible with high speeds, risky maneuvers, and visceral attacks. Not only that but the game comes with a few twists of its own to feel like a new experience with hints of nostalgia.
The biggest feature, at least in my opinion, of Aero GPX is its speed. The machines in this game move fast. And when I say fast, I mean REALLY FAST.
Since Nintendo does not plan to bring F-Zero to the PC, this is the best alternative. So, it will be interesting to see whether or not PC gamers will embrace it.
The Steam Early Access version has the first 15 circuits of it (out of the planned 25). The game will stay in Early Access until March/April 2025.
It’s also worth noting that you won’t need a high-end PC to run it. According to the PC specs, PC gamers will at least need an Intel Celeron G5905 with 2GB of RAM and Intel UHD Graphics 610. The game will also only require 2GB of free disk space. So yeah, it’s almost a given that it will run on a huge range of PC configurations.
Enjoy!

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
