Star fox wiiuNintendo has said its Star Fox Wii U game is on track to launch in 2015, as part of a wider announcement where it revealed release dates for key upcoming games.

The Star Fox game, which has yet to be given a specific title, is the brainchild of the corporation’s talismanic developer Shigeru Miyamoto.

A rough prototype of the game was shown at E3 in Los Angeles, and at the time Miyamoto said he was considering partnering with an external development studio to help support the project.

“This is a game that we’ve developed internally up until now, but because we do want to bring this to market very soon, we are looking at some potential partner companies that we can team up with,” he told GameSpot. However, Miyamoto also assured fans that he “will be directly in charge of the project,” regardless of what other studio Nintendo partners with.

The Wii U Star Fox game will mark the first original game in the series to be published since 2006, when the company released Star Fox Command on the Nintendo DS. Nintendo confirmed it plans to release the game in 2015 as part of a tweet detailing projects currently earmarked to ship next year.

Games already lined up for next year include:

  • Splatoon
  • Yoshi’s Woolly World
  • Mario Maker
  • Project Giant Robot
  • Kirby and the Rainbow House
  • Project Guard
  • Xenoblade Chronicles X
  • Zelda Wii U
