Nintendo has announced that Star Fox Zero will be delayed until 2016’s first quarter. This announcement has come via Nintendo’s Facebook page, on which Shigeru Miyamoto posted the following,
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.
Miyamoto elaborated that the game could technically be released this holiday season, but a decision was made last week to further polish the title.
