The Wolfen (ウルフェン, Wolfen) is the name of the ship piloted by Wolf O'Donnell and his team, Star Wolf. They are similar to team Star Fox's Arwings.

Origin

The Wolfen was manufactured by Andross and Pigma Dengar to counter the Arwing and prevent the Star Fox team from reaching Venom. With greater offense capabilities, but worse defense, the Wolfen fighters were designed to quickly dispose of anyone who got in Andross' way. As Andross is said to be the original creator of the G-Diffusor system and theory, it comes equipped with such as well.

The Wolfen first appears in Star Fox 64 in the 3rd mission of the game on the planet Fichina (referred to as Fortuna in the original N64 version), when the Star Fox team arrive there to stop its base from self-destructing. They are suddenly stopped by Wolf and his Star Wolf team, each piloting their own ship. The ships reappear alongside the evil team in a few other missions. During Star Fox: Assault, Star Wolf sported redesigned Wolfens, doing battle with them against Star Fox in the Sargasso Space Zone, though Wolf would later allow Fox to ride on the wing of Wolf's Wolfen on Corneria. The Wolfen could also be used in this game for the first time, being unlockable for the game's Versus Mode. During Star Fox Command, the members of Star Wolf each customized their ships, with only that of Wolf appearing the same as the original Wolfen, while Leon and Panther changed theirs to fit their preferences.

In Super Smash Bros.

The Wolfen occasionally flies by in the background of Sector Z, but does not attack the player.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

Wolfen as it appears in Melee.

A Wolfen appears in the Corneria and Venom stages, occasionally firing lasers at the characters on-screen. The Wolfen doesn't target any character in particular. In the Corneria stage, once it has stopped firing, the Wolfen will then fly off the screen after a few seconds. If a character remains on it when it flies off the screen, that character will receive a Star KO.

It also appears in the opening movie, piloted by Wolf as he makes his cameo.

Trophy

The Wolfen trophy is obtained by clearing Adventure Mode in under 18 minutes 20 seconds or less.

Wolfen

The beloved ship of the mercenary team Star Wolf, which was hired to destroy Fox and his team. The ship's abilities rival an Arwing.;^[sic] As a matter of fact, the Wolfen II was an improvement over its predecessor and could nearly outperform team Star Fox's ships. Star Wolf's leader, Wolf O'Donnell, is Fox's most persistent rival.

Wolf's on-screen appearance in Brawl.

The Wolfen reappears in the Corneria stage as it did before and also makes an appearance in the Lylat Cruise stage. It appears briefly in both Wolf's on-screen appearance in which he ejects from it to enter on the battlefield, as well as a bonus scene of the Subspace Emissary, in which Wolf ejects from the Wolfen and lands on the Lylat Cruise to face off the player. It's also notable that the Wolfen appears slightly different than the Star Fox: Assault version, where its wings are spread farther apart. The Wolfen also appears as a sticker in Brawl.

Wolfen

A class of star fighter piloted by Team Star Fox's rivals, Team Star Wolf. Wolfens boast more gravity-suppressing plates than Arwings, making their performance equal or perhaps even superior. When Team Star Wolf reappeared, they were piloting Wolfen II ships--improved versions with two laser cannons rather than one and the capability to reflect attacks by rolling.

Wolfen

Star Wolf's all-range fighters were designed by an evil scientist (Andross) and a truly shameless mechanic (Pigma). Still, leaving aside the designers' personal qualities, the Wolfen's performance and careful design make it truly stand out. In fact, its turning ability and high-gravity resistance surpass even the Arwing.

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

The Wolfen appears as a distinct trophy. Its Assault version is an item in Smash Tour: when used, it makes a selected opponent start the battle with 100% damage. Also, the Wolfen reappears in the Lylat Cruise stage.

Wolfen (Assault)

These all-range fighter are Star Wolf's pride and joy. They're considered to be on the same level as Star Fox's Arwings-maybe even better because of having two pairs of Gravity Blades. In Star Fox: Assault, you can actually earn a chance to fly a Wolfen yourself. Why not try out and see which is better?
