Validating multiple files in array

I need to validate multiple uploaded files, making sure they are of a specific type and under 2048kb. The below doesn't appear to check all files in the array 'files' and just presumes the posted files of invalid mime type as it seems to be checking the array object and not its contents.

public function fileUpload(Request $request)
    {

       $validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
            'files' => 'required|mimes:jpeg,jpg,png',
        ]);

        if ($validator->fails())
        {
            return response()->json(array(
                'success' => false,
                'errors' => $validator->getMessageBag()->toArray()

            ), 400);             }

}

You can validate files array like any input array in Laravel 5.2. This feature is new in Laravel 5.2.

$input_data = $request->all();

$validator = Validator::make(
    $input_data, [
    'image_file.*' => 'required|mimes:jpg,jpeg,png,bmp|max:20000'
    ],[
        'image_file.*.required' => 'Please upload an image',
        'image_file.*.mimes' => 'Only jpeg,png and bmp images are allowed',
        'image_file.*.max' => 'Sorry! Maximum allowed size for an image is 20MB',
    ]
);

if ($validator->fails()) {
    // Validation error.. 
}
