Fox McCloud made his appearance in ''{{h1|Star Fox|Games}}'' (''Starwing'' in PAL regions) for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993. Fox is the son of James McCloud, renowned pilot and leader of the original Star Fox team, and Vixy McCloud (née Reinard). It is unknown what happened to his mother, but James is shown raising a very young fox by himself. Wanting to follow in his father's footsteps, Fox joins a pilot's academy as a teenager. Around this time, team Star Fox is hired to investigate the planet [[Venom]] after rumors of Andross returning. However, team member {{s|lylatwiki|Pigma Dengar}} betrayed the team, and James was presumed killed by Andross. The final member, [[Peppy Hare]], managed to escape to warn the galaxy about Andross and tell Fox that his father is gone. Seeking to avenge his father, Fox formed a new Star Fox team, which consisted of Peppy, [[Falco Lombardi]], and [[Slippy Toad]]. Fox would led his team through the Lylat System to save it from the evil [[Andross]]. At the end of ''Star Fox 64'' (''Lylat Wars'' in PAL regions), a retelling of the original Star Fox, Fox independently fought and killed Andross at the end of the adventure.
