Nintendo revealed today during its Direct streaming event that Star Fox Zero has a new release date: April 22. The Wii U title was originally supposed to come out in 2015 before getting delayed.

Star Fox Zero uses two different views on two different screens. The TV shows an outside perspective on the battle, while the  Wii U tablet shows a view from the cockpit. When trying the game at E3, it took a little getting used to, but the idea definitely felt unique.
