The Wolfen is a fictional space ship piloted by the Star Wolf team in the Star Fox series of video games. Like the Arwing, the Wolfen undergoes changes in each Star Fox game.
History
Wolfen
The unnamed fighters of the Star Wolf team in Star Fox 2 could be called Wolfens but that remains unknown since the game was never released. Wolf had his own uniquely designed fighter while the other three members use the same design, one very similar to the one that would eventually appear in Star Fox 64.The first appearance of the Wolfen in a published game was in Star Fox 64 on the Fortuna stage; they would reappear on Bolse if any of them survived or the player took a route to Bolse that avoided Fortuna.
In , the Wolfen has four 'Gravity Blades' instead of a G-diffuser, making it unable to have a complete stop like the Arwing, but it is faster.
Wolfen II
The first and only appearance of the Wolfen II to date was in Star Fox 64 on Venom. They had two G-Diffusers, compared to the Arwing's one, which made the ship faster. The Wolfen II had twin lasers equipped and a shield generator capable of deflecting bombs and charged lasers.Wolfen in Star Fox: Assault
The Wolfen can be unlocked in Star Fox: Assault for use in multiplayer. It has a larger auto-aim window than the Arwing, and it deals more damage at each laser level and with a charged laser. It also flies faster than the Arwing but it cannot come to a complete stop in mid-air, is less maneuverable, and can't turn as tightly. It can also have a wing walker ride shotgun on one of the upper wings, as seen in the Corneria City level of the game.Wolfen in Star Fox: Command
The Wolfen will also appear in Star Fox: Command, being briefly visible in a trailer first seen at E³ in early 2006. It appears to be almost identical in appearance to its Star Fox: Assault incarnation.Trivia
- A Wolfen trophy can be obtained in Super Smash Bros. Melee. It also appears occasionally in both Star Fox stages of said game.
