Missions & Routes
Complete tactical database for every mission in Star Fox 64. Select a mission for detailed walkthroughs, medal strategies, boss tactics, and route branching information.
Corneria
The Lylat Wars begin on Corneria, the peaceful capital planet of the Lylat System. Androssian forces have launched a full-scale invasion, swarming Corneria City with fighters, tanks, and aquatic units. General Pepper calls in the Star Fox team to repel the invaders before the capital falls.
Meteo
A dense asteroid field lies between Corneria and the outer planets. Giant asteroids create crushing traps, and Androssian forces use the debris for ambushes. A hidden warp zone offers a shortcut to Katina for skilled pilots.
Sector Y
A massive space battle rages in Sector Y between the Cornerian Fleet and Androssian warships. Fast-flying robots overwhelm the allied forces. Star Fox is tasked with turning the tide and punching through the enemy fleet.
Fichina
The Venomians have captured a Cornerian army base on the ice planet Fichina and planted a bomb. Star Fox must retake the base while facing their rivals — the Star Wolf team — for the first time.
Katina
Fox's academy classmate Bill Grey leads the Bulldog and Husky squadrons in defending a frontline base from a massive Venomian invasion force. The skies are filled with dogfighters, and friendly fire is a constant risk.
Aquas
Fox pilots Slippy's Blue-Marine submarine through the dark ocean depths of Aquas. Biologically altered sea creatures and ancient ruins make this one of the most atmospheric missions in the game.
Sector X
Andross's secret weapon development facility has been blasted into space junk, but enemy squadrons now hide within the debris. Three different exit routes make this a pivotal mission for route planning.
Solar
The surface of Solar reaches temperatures over 9,000 degrees. Even the Arwing's hull slowly loses shields in the extreme heat. Lava waves and flaming bioweapons make this a test of survival.
Zoness
A stealth mission to cripple Andross's oil refineries on the toxic ocean world Zoness. Radar Buoys patrol the area, and detection triggers massive reinforcements. Katt Monroe joins the fight to help Falco.
Titania
A desert rescue mission. Slippy has crash-landed on the scorching sands of Titania and been captured by the monstrous Goras. Fox takes the Landmaster tank to navigate the dunes and save his teammate.
Macbeth
Macbeth is the heart of Andross's war industry. The Star Fox team must stop an armored supply train before it reaches the weapons factory. The Landmaster is the perfect tool for this ground assault.
Sector Z
Star Wolf has set a trap for the Great Fox in Sector Z. Six massive Copperhead missiles are streaking toward the mothership, and the Star Fox team must intercept them before it's too late.
Bolse
The Bolse defense satellite guards the approach to Venom with a powerful shield and laser cannons. Destroying the energy spires is the only way to drop the shield and expose the core.
Area 6
The deadliest space zone in the Lylat System. Area 6 is Andross's last line of defense before Venom, packed with Harlock frigates, Zeram cruisers, and the planet-crushing Gorgon space station.
Venom
The final confrontation with Andross deep beneath the surface of Venom. Two different versions of this mission exist depending on your route — each with a completely different ending.
Route Overview
Star Fox 64 features 25 possible paths through the Lylat System. All routes begin at Corneria and end at Venom, but the missions you encounter along the way depend on your performance and the choices you make.
Easy Routes (1–6)
Ideal for first-time players. Fewer secret missions and simpler branching conditions. Leads to Venom I (Robot Andross ending).
Medium Routes (7–19)
More strategic challenges. Requires finding warp gates in Meteo and Sector X. Mix of Venom I and Venom II endings.
Hard Routes (20–25)
The ultimate challenge. Requires mastering secret missions, stealth mechanics, and warp navigation. Leads to the True Ending at Venom II.
