Star Fox is a Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive, so there is a single platform figure. The 14.8 GB eShop download size is consistent across Nintendo Everything, GoNintendo's June 21, 2026 eShop file-size round-up, Nintendo Life and TwistedVoxel. A Nintendo Switch Online membership (sold separately) plus a Nintendo Account are required for the online modes, but not for the single-player campaign.
