Fox would then be featured in ''Star Fox Adventures''. Initially sent on a mission to survey a disturbance reported on Dinosaur Planet, he eventually gets wrapped up in stopping a plot involving an insurrection of the planet by {{s|lylatwiki|General Scales}}, and later Andross. Fox is joined by dinosaur prince Tricky and [[Krystal]], the latter would officially join the Star Fox team and replace Peppy as a pilot.

In ''Star Fox Assault'', Fox once again leads his team to save the galaxy, this time from the {{s|lylatwiki|Aparoids}}. The relationship between Fox and Krystal slowly bloomed into love, which concerned Fox as he was afraid to lose another loved one. He decided to let Krystal go from the team. By the events of ''Star Fox Command'', the team had fallen apart and unoffically disbanded. However, the Anglar empire invades the Lylat system and Fox has to get whoever he can to help him fight the empire off. Depending on the actions of the player throughout the game, Fox will either go against the army alone, team up with one or more of his former teammates, look for Wolf and team up with him, get back together with Krystal and have a child with her, drive Krystal away again, or abandon his former life and become a G-Zero racer instead.

Fox has been compared to {{iw|wikipedia|Luke Skywalker}} of the ''{{iw|wikipedia|Star Wars}}'' franchise several times, including Nintendo Player's Guide for ''Assault''. Fox is an overall vigorous and loyal bellwether who is often depicted as outspoken and righteous in his actions, putting the wellbeing of the innocent above all else and willing do anything that allows him to complete his mission, particularly in ''Adventures'' which shows him as a professional and decisive mercenary. Albeit scarcely of a cocky rogue with a propensity to disregard rules and regulations (and to repine if he is not being paid enough), he is ultimately, according to ''Star Fox Adventures'', "pure of heart", and is very protective of his friends. Fox's countenance is always either a stoic look or cocky smile. Fox likes to be in control of the situation at all times and becomes uncomfortable to the point of complaining when things do not go according to plan. This can be seen in ''Adventures'', where he expresses disappointment when General Pepper forbids him from bringing a blaster to a mission. Despite his reputation as a confident leader, Fox does have secret insecurities about not living up to his father. Still, he managed to save the galaxy several times and learned to trust himself over time.

==Physical appearance and traits==
Fox has green eyes which sometimes appear to be blue and orange-brown fur. His golden-brown white-highlighted hair is cut into a crew cut. The rest of his skin is a cream-colored tone. He additionally has a bushy white-tipped tail which appears to be very short in ''Star Fox 64'' and ''Command'', implying that it might have been cut off at a certain point. Fox is of medium/short height and medium weight, which is present in the original "Super Smash Bros.", but future games have him as a mid-sized target, but very light.
Before ''Star Fox Adventures'', Fox's eye color was inconsistent. In-game, it was yellow-orange in ''Star Fox'', but blue in puppets and most artwork (and infrequently green). It is also blue in ''Star Fox 2'', which was originally in development for the SNES. It was black in ''Star Fox 64'' (along with the other characters) and given a consistent green afterward.

Albeit scarcely of a cocky rogue with a propensity to disregard rules and regulations (and to repine if he's not being paid enough), he is ultimately, according to ''Star Fox Adventures'', "pure of heart". Fox is shown to be very protective of his friends, as visually perceived in the games, of his team. Fox's countenance is always either a stoic look or cocky smile. In contrast to his personality and traits portrayed in ''Adventures'', ''Star Fox: Assault'' depicts Fox as a professional and decisive mercenary.

[[File:Fox SSBB.jpg|180px|thumb|Fox, as he appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.]]Fox McCloud is a starting playable character in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. His design is a mix between his ''Star Fox Assault'' and ''Star Fox Command'' appearances, but his fur has its color scheme from ''Star Fox 64'', and his jacket, belt and boots having an original design, along with the addition of an infrared scope and his reflector is now a device on his belt. It is also the first ''Super Smash Bros.'' game where Fox's eyes are their proper color (green). His special moves are unchanged. Fox additionally now has a [[Final Smash]], in which he summons the [[Landmaster]] tank.  Fox gets in and the player directly controls the tank to hover, fire shots, roll, and move. The tank is treated like a platform, so characters can actually stand on top of the tank.

Jim Walker, his ''Star Fox Assault'' voice actor, voices Fox in English; while by proxy, his new Japanese voice actor Kenji Nojima voices him in Japanese.

Fox was confirmed as a playable character during the [[E3]] 2013 [[Nintendo Direct]]. Like his appearance in ''Brawl'', Fox's appearance is primarily based on ''Star Fox Command'', but he appears to have higher quality fur visuals, similar to Donkey Kong. Contrary to his appearance, Mike West, his ''Star Fox 64'' and ''Star Fox 64 3D'' English voice actor, now voices Fox. However, he is still voiced by Steve Malpass in Corneria and Jim Walker in Lylat Cruise.
