The film really begins with a take showing the vastness of space, until an Arwing ship from the Cornellia army is piloted by James McCloud, which heads towards something similar to a fleet of mysterious ships commanded by Andross. A space battle ensues, James and his teammates, Peppy Hare and Pigma Dengar start firing Andross fighters fervently, but Pigma ends up being struck by lightning from an Arwing-like ship, only in black colors, and his ship is vaporized but his body remains intact, but he dies a few minutes later due to lack of oxygen, James and Peppy are furious at the death of their companion and start firing even more fervently, a few hours of battle later, James realizes that Andross 'army is unstoppable, but there is a rupture, and they decide to shoot, but as the only thing capable of generating an explosion large enough to destroy Andross' ship was the engine of an Arwing, James decides to sacrifice himself to avoid that his future son who is yet to be born does not become a slave, so he executes a kamikase attack, which despite being efficient, took James’s life, the scene shows a take of Andross’s troops destroys and the screen goes black. The scene cuts to Peppy going to the house of Vixy Reinard, James' wife who is pregnant, on the planet Papetoon, to report the death of her husband to her. We jumped to 11 years later, where we saw two hooded figures of small stature, one chubby and the other more slender, both had entered a kind of warehouse to steal food, but the alarm sounds and they leave the warehouse with the stolen food and go up on a on a flying motorcycle, a chase occurs to the sound of Beastie Boys' Sabotage between the figures and a flying police vehicle, until they get close to a canyon, and to save themselves, they jump off the motorcycle, the vehicle reaches them and a police robot leaves, asking the names of the figures, which reveal to be a fox and a tadpole, called Fox McCloud (son of James McCloud) and Slippy Toad. The scene cuts to the boys at the police station being interrogated, until Peppy Hare appears to defend the boys and convinces the police that they are innocent. Peppy talks to Fox and Slippy about what happened, and Fox tells Peppy that they go hungry at the orphanage (and it is also revealed that Vixy died during childbirth) and that the nuns treat them like garbage. Then the scene cuts to Fox and Slippy being bullied at the orphanage, until the doorbell rings, and it's nothing short of Peppy asking to adopt the boys. Cut to 7 years later and show Fox in a bar on the planet Zoness, where he meets Katt Monroe, he sings about her and a biker gang consists of a lion, a tiger and a cheetah, who say Fox is not welcome at the bar for being a fox, he gets beat up with the bikers to impress Katt, but he gets humiliated, until Peppy arrives at the place to lecture Fox, he says that since Fox will not decide what to do of life, he himself will decide for him, and then Peppy gives the news that Fox will follow in his father's footsteps and enlist in Cornellia's army.

We see a ship heading towards the planet Cornelia, which is taking the newest AFAC (Air Force Academy of Cornellia) cadets to the Academy, we see Fox, Slippy and the other cadets coming down from the ship and being received by General Pepper. Then we are shown to the cadets interacting with each other in the dressing room, and that's when we meet Falco Lombardi, a mysterious cadet who has a lot of rumors about him, like the rumor that says he has killed more than 30 people and that he is a criminal of the worst kind, but none of them are true, he is a very humble and kind hearted guy who respects everyone. We see a sequence with the Queen's song Another One Bites The Dust that shows the training of the cadets, such as flight tests, hand-to-hand combat tests and target shooting tests. After the sequence, we see the General warning the cadets that 6 months from now, there will be a challenge where the pilots will do a spaceship duel, and the pilot who destroys more drones will be the winner. Then we see Fox going to Falco's dorm to intimidate him and say that he will defeat him in the air combat challenge at the end of the year, which doesn't work out, since Falco thinks Fox is very cute and ends up not taking him seriously. what did he say. We have a 6-month time period where the challenge will happen, Fox and Falco do the challenge to the sound of Ozzy Osbourne's Crazy Train. After the end of the challenge (where Fox was defeated by Falco) Fox goes to Falco and punches him in the face, on impulse, one of Falco's friends who was congratulating him by kicking Fox in the belly that makes him fall to the ground and begins a fight, but General Pepper calls Fox and Falco to his office, and since then, Fox and Falco are rivals.

Then we see a montage that shows the rivalry between Fox and Falco, with them competing for almost everything to the sound of the Beatles' Come Together, as in the spaceship duels, hand-to-hand combat, volleyball match and foot race. At the end of the sequence, we are shown the graduation of the cadets and General Pepper congratulating everyone, meanwhile we see that even after graduation, Fox and Falco are still rivals. We see all the cadets going out to celebrate at a bar, it shows Fox and Slippy isolated seeing Falco and the rest of the cadets celebrating, and Fox admits that they are jealous of Falco, and he casually calls the two to join the other cadets, Slippy goes get together but Fox stays there mulling over his hurts. Meanwhile, we see the planet Venom, where we see a kind of machine building a mechanical body identical to the old Andross body, and then inserts a microchip in the back of the neck, which contains the consistency of Andross, who soon turns on his communicator and calls Wolf. O'Donnel, a former war partner. Andross asks Wolf to steal a chip that contains information about the weaknesses of the cornelian army, which is with Fox.

Then we see Fox riding his flying motorcycle to a terrain where he can see the whole capital of Cornelia to think. He keeps looking at the city thinking about everything he has been through, both good and bad things, until his thinking time is interrupted by Wolf, who appears there and starts talking to Fox casually, the conversation flows until Wolf pulls out a gun and points at Fox's head, Fox, quickly picks up the gun and throws it away and begins an intense hand-to-hand combat to the sound of Gorillaz's Feel Good Inc. Fox takes a beating and loses the flu and Wolf leaves. Wolf arrives in Venom and gives the flu to Andross, who thanks him and the two laugh in an evil way. We see Fox arriving at his apartment and lying on the couch, he turns on the TV and starts to watch a Terraquio film called Back to the Future. The next day, Fox wakes up with a call from General Pepper calling him for his first serious mission, he arrives at the base and is faced with Peppy, Slippy and, to his surprise, Falco, and Pepper says that this is his team, Fox is outraged at having to join the same team as Falco, the two argue a little and go on a mission to the planet Macbeth. Once there, Fox and his companions are faced with the army of Andross, which leaves Fox, Falco and Slippy confused and of Peppy's ancients triggers, a battle occurs until a fleet of black Arwings arises, they were the Star Wolf, the team led by Wolf.

The fight continues, and Fox recognizes one of the pilots as the guy who stole his flu, and to keep his pride intact, he chases Wolf across the planet, they pass through some mines and enter caves and ruins of ancient civilizations who lived in Macbeth, all to the sound of Deep Purple's Smoke on The Water, until Fox's ship is swallowed by a giant worm. Falco alone, destroys more than 150 Andross fighters, but then they realize Fox's whereabouts, they decide to part ways to look for him. After a long time, they receive a cry for help from Fox and locate him inside the giant worm, Falco offers to rescue him. Meanwhile in Cornelia, Katt Monroe is talking to General Pepper about Fox, and they talk about how he, despite being reckless and overbearing, has a lot of determination, which is the main quality of a pilot in the Cornelia army.

Then we see Fox waking up inside Falco's ship and asking him what happened to his ship, and Falco replies that it was addressed, Fox then tries to change the subject by asking about Falco's past, and then Falco says that during his childhood, and he was an orphan, and because he is a bird, no orphanage has never accepted him, but he met a guy who taught him to fly and he started competing in illegal cracks of ships, he also mentioned that he joined a gang of street trumpets called Free-As-A-Bird, until he grew up, took his mind and joined the cornelian army and joined AFAC. The scene cuts and shows the ships arriving at Cornelia, and we then see Peppy lecturing Fox because of what happened. A while later Peppy goes to Fox's apartment to tell how and his father met.

Peppy says that he had come from a family of farmers in Cornelia, who had a dream of being an Air Force pilot since he was a little boy. When they met, James and Peppy had a relationship similar to that Fox and Falco have, one tried overcoming each other all the time, but that over time they matured and learned to respect themselves. The conversation is interrupted when Wolf breaks into Fox's apartment, Peppy recognizes Wolf as the guy who killed Pigma and takes a gun and tries to shoot, but Wolf crosses Peppy with his fist and ends up killing him, Fox is furious with Wolf for killing him her adoptive father and goes on top, but Wolf knocks out Fox and leaves. Then the scene cuts to show that Andross transformed the entire planet Venom into a combat fortress, and we also see that now, the planet is able to move and on top of Lylat (the star of the system).

The scene cuts to Peppy's funeral, where each makes a speech in his honor, including Fox, but the funeral is interrupted by an alarm warning that there are at least 10 Andross destroyers on each of the planets in the Lylat system. Then the Star Fox team comes together to come up with a plan to destroy Venom and kill Andross once and for all to the sound of the White Nation's Seven Nation Army. Then we see Fox, Falco and Slippy heading towards Venom, a great battle takes place and thousands of ships (small, medium and large) of Andross are destroyed by our protagonists. They then decide to put the plan into practice, they enter the planet and use a nanosubatomic bomb made by Slippy to destroy the planet, on the way they fight several soldiers of Andross and are stopped by Wolf, Fox tells Falco and Slippy to continue that he and Wolf will resolve their differences, yet another fight between Fox and Wolf occurs to the sound of Queen's We Will Rock You, Fox uses one of Andross 'soldiers' swords to decapitate Wolf's arm and leg and then impale him. Fox overhears a cry for help from Slippy and leaves Wolf in order to help his friend, while Fox goes to help Slippy, Wolf crawls to his ship and leaves the planet. Fox then arrives and sees Falco and Slippy being grabbed by the neck by Andross. An intense fight takes place between Fox, Falco and Slippy against Andross, until they manage to destroy 80% of Andross' body and tie the bomb to him using silvertape. The team activates the bomb and leaves the planet as quickly as possible and we see Venom exploding and all of Andross' troops being deactivated. Then the scene cuts to an award from the Star Fox team as heroes of the Lylat system, and then we see Fox giving a speech, after the speech, Fox and Falco are shown making up and becoming definitely friends, the film ends with a sequence which shows the team's ships flying over the horizon, and the credits roll to the sound of Fox on The Run by The Sweet.
