Nintendo this week surprised fans with the reveal of Star Fox for the Switch 2, and it's flying onto the new hybrid system next month.

We've already seen plenty of footage of this modernised adventure, and now to add to this, Nintendo's official Japanese website has shared even more footage and screenshots of this revitalised game. So, we've rounded up everything on this page.

In this title, based on the 1997 N64 rail shooter game, Fox and his team are tasked with protecting the Lylat system, which is under attack by the evil scientist Andross.

There'll also be 4-vs-4 multiplayer dogfights and some Switch 2 features.
