Star Fox Guard is an upcoming tower defense-style spin-off in the Star Fox series, developed for Wii U in collaboration between PlatinumGames and Nintendo alongside Star Fox Zero. Originally unveiled at E3 2014 as a tech demo titled "Project Guard", the game will be released in a bundle alongside Star Fox Zero and as an individual download on the Nintendo eShop (which will give the player a discount toward purchasing Star Fox Zero).

Gameplay
Players must defend the core of their station from attacking robots by taking control of cameras using the Wii U GamePad and shooting them away. The Wii U GamePad displays a map of the facility, while the TV screen displays twelve live security feeds, the currently active feed being displayed in the center. When a robot approaches, the player must tap the appropriate camera on the Wii U GamePad to switch to that feed in order to blast the oncoming enemy.
When playing online, the player will be pitted against another player to either invade or defend a base. While the defending player plays as normal, the invading player uses the Wii U GamePad to set up where and how the robots will attack.
