The Fox amiibo isn’t the only figure that works with Star Fox Zero. The Falco amiibo has its own unique unlock, too.

As shown in AbdallahSmash026’s live stream earlier today, by scanning it, you’ll unlock the Black Arwing. This not only features an original color scheme, but also has some functionality. Using it allows players to lock on to two enemies at once, and enemies will dish out three times the damage.

Nintendo updated the Japanese website of Star Fox Zero today with some info on the game’s locations. Here’s a list of the planets you’ll be visiting in the game:

• Corneria
• Meteo ?
• Area 3
• Zoness
• Sector ?
• Titania
• Sector ?
• Fichina
• Fortuna
• Sector ?
• Venom

If you’ve played Star Fox 64, these places should sound familiar to you. Just like in that game, you’ll be able to choose between different routes to your final goal of Venom depending on your decisions in missions. For example, switching to the Walker on Corneria can lead you to a secret boss and a new route.

We’ve posted some excerpts from the interview below. More comments from Miyamoto can be found on TIME here.
