So are the toy contents even necessary at all, like just some additional ships and fighters etc., or is the base toy truly relevant? Does anybody know?

For everyone asking about the toy to life experience. It is optional to have physical toys (you still have all the content if you want it) From their website : « Q. Do I need the modular toys to play Starlink: Battle for Atlas? A. No. Each starship, pilot, and weapon in Starlink: Battle for Atlas is available for purchase in physical and digital formats. All Starter Pack physical starships, weapons, and pilots are permanently unlocked digitally as well. Additionally, all physical toys unlock their digital counterparts for a period of time when connected via the controller mount, letting you play how you want, when you want. » |

Though, you can play the game without buying the toys, so your point is ? |
I hope so. I don't want the clutter.
looks interesting but seems more expensive than other toys to life games i have. will probably get once its around $40 add to my kids collections of skylanders,lego dimension,disney infinity figurines
The treehouse showing made it a must buy for me! Starfox exclusive missions as well is the icing on the cake. The gameplay looks really fun.

And, if the game turns out to be as good as it looks, it might lead to a new open world Star Fox. :) |
While I think some ideas here could work for Star Fox, I think some changes would be in order. For example, I would have the rail shooter sections in there as part of traveling to new systems or planet to planet. Also, Star Fox needs more structure than this I think. But I would be down for a Star Fox taking ideas from this, certainly.
I actually got to play this at E3 and in the process of writing a preview for another site I write for. It's actually pretty fun, nice difficulty level. A bit on the tricky side but I suspect that Ubi is semi-coaxing you to buy better ships and weapons to make the game easier. Definitely feels very Star Fox at times. Playing with Fox and doing barrel rolls with his Arwing was pretty sweet.
I just wish they weren't pushing the whole modular space ship toy thing with this, and that the game wouldn't cost 75 bucks just for what I assume is a basic set included. Otherwise pretty solid space-shooter.

Yeah, after watching the gameplay it definitely seems appealing.
I wouldn't mind if it was just the ships and maybe pilots who had to be bought separately, but the weapon changing seems pretty integral to the gameplay, and I haven't read anything that tells me you can just earn/unlock them in-game.

$75 gets you the game's main character pilot, a ship, and a set of weapons. This allows you to play all the core content, no missions or planets gated off.
With Switch, the starter kit includes the main character of the base game, Star Fox, the Arwing, and weapons. So again, no gated content since you have the Star Fox missions available out of the box as well.
Looks interesting and fun. I may pick it up.
