Star Fox Zero is uitgesteld naar 2016, zo laat Shigeru Miyamoto op de Wii U Facebook-pagina weten.

Shigeru Miyamoto laat in zijn statement weten dat de game pas in het eerste kwartaal van 2016 verschijnt.

We have been developing Star Fox Zero for Wii U with the aim of releasing it this year. Although we felt that the development had been progressing well, we now believe that we will need a little more time to work on areas such as the unprecedented discovery that we want players to experience in the game by using two screens, and further polishing the level designs and perfecting the tone of the cut scenes. While we have already reached the stage where it would be technically possible to release the title in time for the year-end holiday season, we want to polish the game a bit more so that players will be able to more smoothly grasp the new style of play that we are proposing.

Miyamoto laat weten dat ze meer tijd nodig hebben om de game af te maken, zo werken ze nog hard aan split-screen en het verbeteren van de levels en cutscenes.

Star Fox Zero stond oorspronkelijk gepland voor een release op 20 november 2015.
