Watch Brand New Footage of Nintendos Next Star Fox Game
The upcoming Star Fox game is going to place a big emphasis on vehicle variety. Star Fox Zero, set to debut on Nintendo's Wii U console by the end of the year, will let players transform Fox McCloud's famous Arwing into a walking mech with the press of a button. The functionality was a feature in the never-released Star Fox 2 for the SNES, now resurrected for the new title. Players will also be able to drive Fox's landmaster tank and a gyro-wing copter in the new game, which appears heavily influenced by the on-rails dogfights of Star Fox 64. The game will also make heavy use of the Wii U's gamepad. Players will see a cockpit view of the action on the gamepad screen and a more cinematic, third-person view on their television screen. Aiming will be aided by the gamepad's gyroscope controls. Check out Star Fox Zero in action in the new footage above.
