Star Fox: Assault is the direct sequel to Star Fox Adventures, and returned more to the genre and gameplay of the preceding Star Fox games (namely Star Fox and Star Fox 64). It was released on Nintendo GameCube in 2005. Continuing the trend of all Star Fox games (except 64), the game was not developed by Nintendo itself — this time, Assault was developed by Namco.One year after the incident on Sauria the Star Fox team is hired to help take down the remnants of Andross' forces. However in the midst of this battle a new enemy emerges to threaten the Lylat system. The aparoids, a race of insect like creatures begin an invasion of the system with the goal of assimilating all life into their collective hive. With the Cornerian military outnumbered and outgunned, it's up to Star Fox to track down information leading to the aparoid homeworld and defeat this menace once and for all. | |

After-Action Villain Analysis | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_114d3902 | comment |
After-Action Villain Analysis: After beating the final boss, Fox pauses before making his escape to calmly muse on the enemy's plans, and how they couldn't have worked...at least not the way the enemy had hoped. | |

Resist the Beast | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_1231e49d | comment |
Resist the Beast: General Pepper is infected with the Aparoid infection, and has to be fought in a boss battle. The whole time, he tells Fox and crew to just finish him off, ending with "never thought I'd be fighting all of you" before the process takes him over completely. | |

Gatling Good | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_128e4ba8 | comment |
Gatling Good: The Gatling Gun in on-foot missions. It's even more rapid-fire than the (much more common) Machine Gun and, unlike the Machine Gun, has armor-piercing rounds, which allows it to chew through enemies you'd ordinarily need a charged blaster shot, sniper rifle, or explosions to deal with. | |

| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Star Fox 64 and Star Fox Adventures were much more relaxed and lighthearted than their predecessors on the SNES. Star Fox Assault returned the franchise to a decidedly darker tone, roughly as dark as the SNES games. | |

Shows Damage: Like Star Fox 64, this game shows this kind of damage when the Arwing is low on shield, in this case by way of violet particle trails. The lower the shielding, the more frequent it becomes. | |

Climactic Battle Resurrection | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_1a6755f9 | comment |
Climactic Battle Resurrection: The game ends with one, as Fox's home planet of Corneria, General Pepper, and Peppy all die Disney Deaths in the final battles with the Aparoids. Thankfully, Andross is nowhere to be found. Star Wolf apparently pulled a Heroic Sacrifice as well, but they aren't seen after the battle. Fox muses it is definitely possible; and while the other characters actually did appear to die, Wolf's team was last seen being chased by the enemy so bringing them back would be easy. | |

Death from Above | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_1c398324 | comment |
Death from Above: Multiplayer mode features a rare but incredibly powerful weapon which invokes this trope. It is a cylinder that, when planted in the ground, fires a multitude of colored rockets that spread out and bombard the local area. This weapon achieves the widest spread but lowest density if you plant it on the nose of an Arwing you're flying high in the air. | |

Boss Banter | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_1e122f24 | comment |
Boss Banter: The game manages to use this to disturbing effect during a few of its boss fights: in the Asteroid Belt, Pigma gets assimilated and suffers a Loss of Identity, General Pepper is taken over in the Corneria stage and ''begs you'' to kill him, and then the Aparoid Queen tries to break the team's spirit via using the information gained from Pigma, Pepper, Rob and Peppy, even going far enough as to use the voice of Fox's father, James. This ends up backfiring, since the Queen didn't do her research on James. | |

Balance, Power, Skill, Gimmick: In the multiplayer, Fox has average stats, while Falco is fragile and has the best Arwing skill, Slippy has a lot of health and has poor Arwing skill (but has the best Landmaster skill), and Krystal has medium-low stats and tends to get barriers a lot (the gimmick). | |

Radar Is Useless: Invoked in the mission "War Comes Home" when the Aparoids unleash radar jammers to block the heroes' counterattack. Fox has to manually destroy each jammer with a sniper rifle, and the radar becomes more reliable with every one taken out. | |

It Has Been an Honor: At one point in the penultimate level, Peppy Hare states "Fox, Krystal, Falco, Slippy... I'm proud to have served alongside you", although when asked what he means, Peppy claims he was just babbling. Turns out, it was foreshadowing his attempted Heroic Sacrifice where he rams the almost-Aparoidized Great Fox into the shield generator of the planet | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: In contrast to how most levels aside from Sauria and some new to this game are from Star Fox 64, Fortuna is from the original Star Fox, which was subject to the Star Fox 64 reboot. The Star Fox logo returned to a visual style resembling the original Star Fox from 1993. Wolf's outfit brought back the shoulder spikes that characterized his outfit in Star Fox 2, which had been unreleased until 2017 (12 years after the release of Assault). | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The gatling gun, as explained below, is an immensely powerful weapon that fires faster than any other weapon, including the machine gun. However, it has only half the ammo of the machine gun, and it chews through it much faster. Given its rarity, you won't be getting ammo refills, so you have to either use it quite sparingly and hope you'll see it again before the level's up, or blow it quickly. It's most effectively used against divebombing arwings and the rather cumbersome landmasters. | |

Death as Comedy: When Fox dies, he falls onto his stomach and wags his (white-tipped) tail back and forth, showing his defeat like when waving a white flag. In the alpha version of the game, Fox slowly raises his tail, also like a white flag for surrender. Slippy goes down with a pirouette. | |

War Comes Home: Played straight with a level called "War Comes Home" in which the Aparoid Army launches a devastating attack on Corneria, the home planet of Fox and other pilots on his team. By the time he gets there, the battle is lost and the Aparoids are running cleanup on the cities below. Fox has to fight his hardest to drive them off with minimal support. Ironically, this occurs just after a mission Fox takes to defend Sauria, the homeworld of his teammate and love interest, Krystal. | |

Body Horror | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: Pigma undergoes a horrific transformation at the hands of the Aparoids, in which he is assimilated into a spacecraft, turning his whole body into a giant, mutilated, vaguely cybernetic (but mostly organic-looking) pig's face, kept safe in a metallic cube which can open and close, hiding or revealing said face. | |

Single-Biome Planet | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_515189ab | comment |
Single-Biome Planet: As usual, most planets in Lylat system except Sauria lore-wise (even then, unlike in Adventures, only a specific region of it is visited this time, serving as a Green Hill Zone level combined with Temple of Doom). Of special note is Fortuna, which returns from the original SNES game and is very Earth-like, complete with plant-filled plains and expanses of water. | |

Green Aesop: Minor compared to the above-mentioned Fantastic Aesop, but Corneria has a billboard related to cleaning up the pollution on Zoness, which was covered with Grimy Water in Star Fox 64 thanks to Andross's invasion of the planet. Considering the fact that the water in the Zoness multiplayer stage is dark blue instead of green, it seems to be working. | |

Nostalgia Level | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_56b5a6b7 | comment |
Nostalgia Level: Several missions take place in planets that were visited in Star Fox 64, while another one takes place in Fortuna from the original Star Fox (albeit previously unexplored in the continuity that began with 64, so it also doubles as Mythology Gag), and yet another in Sauria from Star Fox Adventures (implied to be close to Walled City, due to the pyramidal ruins). Considering the very high stakes raised by the threat of the Aparoids in all of Lylat System (even surpassing that of Andross in previous games), this trope is fitting for the game. | |

From Bad to Worse | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_7870735b | comment |
From Bad to Worse: The whole story. First, the threat of Andrew is about to be put to an end for all time (unless Command is believed to be canon) when suddenly an aparoid presumably kills him and attacks Krystal; its species appears years after one destroyed an entire Cornerian fleet. Then, the Star Fox team finds a Core Memory leading to their homeworld, only for Pigma to steal it. Then they find that aparoids can infect machines. Then they find that they can infect organics, and Pigma is assimilated and destroyed. Star Fox gets that all-important Core Memory, but then they have to rush off and save Sauria, which is being overrun by aparoids. They save Sauria, only to find that they annihilated Corneria and began assimilating General Pepper while they were busy on Sauria. They finally make it to the homeworld, only for the aparoids to assimilate the Great Fox, and for Peppy to perform a Heroic Sacrifice to allow them into the homeworld interior. Star Wolf shows up to aid them, but then they perform another Heroic Sacrifice to cover Star Fox as they enter the deepest part of the core. Star Fox fights through the psychological warfare of the aparoid queen, and hit it with the self-destruct program, only for it to not work. Things are only righted after the final final boss battle. | |

Rocket-Tag Gameplay | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_8b0a127 | comment |
Rocket-Tag Gameplay: There are several multi-player game modes that result in this, such as Rocket Launcher fights and Sure Shot Scuffle which renders every shot a one-hit kill. Then there's Sniper Showdown, which limits weapons to only Sniper Rifles but gives them infinite ammo. Sniper Rifles are also probably the most powerful weapon, one-shotting anyone unless you have a low Pilot Skill and your opponent has high health (i.e. Krystal Vs. Wolf) but even then it's still just one more shot. And unlike most shooters, you don't need a headshot, as long as the bullet hits, bye bye goes the healthbar. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: When Beltino first discusses the aparoids, he notes that it took a single aparoid moth to destroy an entire fleet. It's clear that nobody outside the Star Fox team will survive the invasion on the aparoid homeworld. At Fichina, Pigma begins to mutter "Obey us" repeatedly in his sleep, before snapping out of it. It was the Core Memory trying to infect him, and he ends up assimilated in the next level. At the briefing regarding the aparoids' invasion of Corneria, General Pepper pleads with the team to help them quickly before the communications are suddenly lost. Peppy suggests that Pepper is in danger. He was right, as Pepper's flagship was hijacked by the aparoids while fighting them. At Corneria, Peppy saves General Pepper's life by smashing an Arwing into the latter's flagship before it crashes, showing the elderly pilot's willingness to risk his own life to help his loved ones. And at the Aparoid Homeworld, Peppy tells the team that he's proud to have fought alongside the group, later clarifying that he was "just babbling" and nothing more. Turns out the aparoids had gotten to the Great Fox during the ground assault. | |

Respawning Enemies: The game handwaves it with generators that will teleport in enemy reinforcements, and actually makes a point about airborne enemy presence being possibly overwhelming for your teammates due to this, so if you take too long, you'll have to take to the skies and shoot down baddies for a while. Unfortunately, a large number of generators can only be reached by foot or tank. | |

I Cannot Self-Terminate | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_b731fa6e | comment |
I Cannot Self-Terminate: General Pepper in Mission 7. The Aparoids have taken over his ship and threaten to take over himself as well. During the fight, he keeps asking to be killed before that happens. Subverted in that Peppy dives in to soften the ships fall and Pepper survives in the end. Also later in the game, Peppy sacrifices the infested Great Fox to break through a defensive shield. | |

Pretender Diss | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_b9fa17b7 | comment |
Pretender Diss: In previous games, Andross was typically depicted as a giant floating head and hands. In this game, Andrew mimics this by transforms his warship into a head and hands. Falco is unimpressed. | |

Shout-Out: The aparoids, in a last-ditch effort to prevent the completion of the aparoid self-destruct program, has various missiles that are both sent via hyperspace wormhole and implied to be powerful enough to destroy a planet should they target it (especially the largest segmented one), similar to the particle disintegrator warheads fired by the Galaxy Gun in Dark Empire.

Expy | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: The entire Aparoid race is one to the Borg. The Aparoids are a cyborg race of insects race from outside the normal sphere of space where the Star Fox games take place, just like how the Borg are a cyborg race of various assimilated species hailing from the Delta Quadrant. Additionally, the Aparoids also assimilate the biology and technology of their enemies and add them to their own, as seen throughout the game. It is mentioned that seventeen years prior to the events of the game, a single Aparoid encountered a Cornerian fleet and wiped it out in its entirety, leading the Cornerians to develop countermeasures intended for the Aparoids that gathered dust due to the Aparoids going quiet after that. This parallels the Battle of Wolf 359 where a single Borg Cube destroyed 39 Starfleet vessels, and the subsequent fallout of this leading to the creation of dedicated warships such as the Defiant class that then went unused for a time due to the Borg threat diminishing. The source controlling the Aparoids turns out to be the Aparoid Queen, with her goal being the assimilation of all life in the universe in order to add to the Aparoid's own "perfection". Nine years prior, Star Trek: First Contact established the existence of the Borg Queen who's goal was the same as all Borg, that being to achieve perfection by assimilating other species. Additionally, the Aparoid Queen attempts to use emotional manipulation to break the Star Fox team by means of speaking to them in the voices of assimilated friends and foes. The Borg Queen uses similar tactics to manipulate both Data and Seven of Nine. | |

The Battle Didn't Count: You very clearly defeat Star Wolf by shooting down their ships, causing them to explode, but they are perfectly fine in the immediately following cutscene. | |

Emergency Weapon | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_ef42ca88 | comment |
Emergency Weapon: The basic blaster has infinite ammo, and can pierce armor with charged shots, making it a reliable weapon you can fall back on for any task if you lack the more specialized weapons. | |

Oddball in the Series | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_f068cba | comment |
Oddball in the Series: Though not to the same extent as its predecessor Adventures (an oddball itself), the game still presents on-foot segments, and this time in the form of Third-Person Shooter areas, with so many missions based around them that there are only a small handful of the on-rails segments that the series is known for. | |

Faceship | |
| Star Fox: Assault (Video Game) / int_f94756fe | comment |
Faceship: In the opening stage, Andrew (the nephew of the late Emperor Andross) transforms his flagship into a gigantic replica of his head as a homage to the final battle of Star Fox 64, where you fought Andross (who was nothing more than a giant disembodied head and hands). | |

Super-Persistent Missile | |

Super-Persistent Missile: Predator Rockets. These are one of the few, if not the only, weapon that will hunt down Arwings and Wolfens even if the target does a loop. | |

Shown Their Work: The term "Apoptosis" is an actual biology term referring to programmed cellular self-destruction, and the definition Slippy gave is the actual definition of Apoptosis. | |
