| |
| The evil [[Andross]] is banished to the deserted wasteland of [[Venom]] by [[General Pepper]] after trying to conquer [[Corneria]], major planet of the [[Lylat System]]. Later Pepper detects strange goings on so he sends [[James McCloud]], [[Pigma Dengar]], and [[Peppy Hare]] to investigate. Upon arrival Pigma betrays the others and Andross captures them.

| ====Venom Arriving From Bolse====
| |
|
| |
| Level 7. Battle with Andross
| |
|
| |
| The Star Fox Team fought their way across the surface of Venom, through wave upon wave of enemy fighters. They flew through a temple, defeating a rock golem boss called [[Golemech]], before reaching Andross' base. Fox continued on and plunged into the depths of the base, deep below the crust of Venom. At the end of a long tunnel, Fox fought Andross. Fox defeated him before fleeing the base as it begins to explode. However, it is revealed at the end of the credits that Fox only defeated an android form of Andross, and Andross' image is seen at the end laughing maniacally.
| |
|
| |
| ====Venom Arriving From Area 6====
| |
| Level 7. The Final Battle
| |
|
| |
| The Star Fox team flew down directly over Andross' base. Before they could enter, however, an updated Star Wolf team arrives in their new ships, the Wolfen II. The Star Fox team was forced to fight them before they could proceed. Since the Wolfen II's were heavily upgraded, bombs and lock-on lasers had no effect. After Star Wolf had been shot down, Fox flew alone and plunged into the depths of the base deep below the crust of Venom.
| |
| Fox flew through a maze of tunnels and corridors before reaching Andross and fighting him. After destroying his disembodied hands and head, Andross's True Form was revealed to be a gigantic brain with bio-mechanical eyes. Moving into all-range mode, Fox destroyed the eyes and then the brain. As he dies, Andross self-destructed. Fox screamed at his impending doom, but, out of nowhere, the supposedly dead James McCloud appears to lead Fox out of the maze of tunnels. If Fox takes a wrong turn at any time, he runs into a wall of fire coming the other way and is destroyed. As they leave the base, James praises Fox's efforts before disappearing, leaving Fox to wonder if it really was his father or not.
| |
|
| |
| Peace was restored to the Lylat System and General Pepper asks Star Fox if they want to join the Cornerian Army. Fox says they prefer to do things their own way, and return to the Great Fox. Pepper gives Fox a lot of money for defeating Andross and his forces (64 dollars for each Venomian unit destroyed).{{CitationNeeded}}
