“Soar over oceans, desert ridges, and perilous caves, battling waves of enemies and pushing back the Baron’s forces,” says the official description.

Which you’d expect him to say, but given that Nintendo hasn’t released a new official Star Fox game in almost a decade — the last being 2016’s Star Fox Zero, one of Nintendo’s rare Wii U games that never made it to Switch — this looks like a great replacement. »
