"You know the law here in Red Canyon. You lose the race, you forfeit your machine!"
— Goroh challenging Falcon to a race in F-Zero GX |
Red Canyon is a location in the F-Zero games. It is notorious for being the favored location of Samurai Goroh and his gang.
it is mentioned by Samurai Goroh in the story mode of F-Zero GX, that whoever loses a race in the canyon, must forfeit their machine, (though it is rather ironic that Samurai Goroh loses a race to Captain Falcon and does not forfeit his machine, however it is possible that Goroh made up the lie).
According to F-Zero GP Legend, this planet is the site of many space pirate ambushes and is the least safe F-Zero venue.
Appearances in F-Zero[]
Red Canyon appears twice in the original F-Zero. Red Canyon 1 has a zigzag and a few 135 degree turns, while Red Canyon 2 features more 135 degree turns, a giant shortcut and a Minefield.
Appearances in F-Zero X[]
Red Canyon, once again, appears twice in F-Zero X in the Queen and King Cup:
- Red Canyon 1 is named Multi Jump, which has many jumps.
- Red Canyon 2 is named Slim Line, which has a long slimline.
Appearances in F-Zero GX[]
Red Canyon, unlike in the previous games, appears just once, but only in Story Mode Chapter 2. In this chapter, Falcon races Samurai Goroh to the end in this 1-lap circuit. This course is also famed for its falling boulders.
Upon getting 1st place on this track on Very Hard Mode, Princia is unlocked.
F-Zero GP Legend[]
In the anime-inspired game, it's been seen in Story Mode for Samurai Goroh, Capt. Falcon, Lisa Brilliant, and Black Shadow.
It has also appeared 4 times in Grand Prix Mode: Red Canyon during the Platinum Cup as the sixth circuit, Junction at the Bronze Cup as the second track, and Junction II in the Silver Cup as the circuit. Seven-Corner Speedway is only accessible in Captain Falcon's and Samurai Goroh's third Story Mode missions.
It is not to be confused with Cryton.
