Star Fox is back, baby.

Star Fox will be a playable character in the game Starlink: Battle for Atlas on the Nintendo Switch along with his trusty Arwing space ship, Ubisoft announced during its E3 conference Monday. The reveal came along with a new trailer for Starlink, which gave a glimpse at the kinds of planets, creatures, and experiences we can expect in the space-faring adventure.

The inclusion of Star Fox as a character in the Switch version shows that the relationship between Nintendo Ubisoft, which came together in last year's Mario + Rabbids, is still going strong.

Starlink: Battle for Atlas comes to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on Oct. 16.
