Star Fox 2 is an unreleased direct sequel to the original Star Fox. While the game was completed, it was shelved due to the impending release of the Nintendo 64, and Nintendo desiring to make a Star Fox game on that system. Elements from this game have been carried over to future games, such as all-range mode and Star Wolf in Star Fox 64, and the Walker in Star Fox Zero.

Years later, the ROM for Star Fox 2 would be released to the public on the internet.

Story

Andross has invaded the Lylat system again and intends on using his army to destroy the planet Corneria.

Gameplay

Gameplay involves players traveling around the Lylat system and destroying Andross's army while at the same time defending Corneria from attack. Instead of moving through a linear path from stage to stage, players can instead travel freely across the Lylat system and complete each mission in any order. Enemy units and missiles move across the map in real time, and players can leave a mission at any point to start another one.

Combat gameplay is similar to the original Star Fox, with players moving along a set path and shooting down enemies along it. However, at times the player may also switch to full 3D movement.
