Macbeth is a mineral planet within the Lylat System. Due to the planet having high amounts of valued elements needed for various technology, miners have taken up a residence on the planet. It is mainly a prospective world.

History

Pre-Lylat Wars

Macbeth was settled by miners who were hoping to use the planet's natural resources to make them more wealthy. Attempts made by them and their actual success are unknown.

Lylat Wars

Andross, realizing the mining colonies set up on Macbeth, enslaved the miners to work for the Venomian Army. Using the abundant resources, he began using Macbeth as a staging area for cruise missile launches against Corneria. He also began using it as a production facility in extense. In effect, it became a factory world.

Team Star Fox, hired by the Cornerian Army, used the concentration of production on Macbeth as a way to cripple Andross' war machine. At the time, Andross was having a supply train/weapon, called Mechbeth, moved to the Macbeth supply depot. Fox McCloud used a Landmaster to ambush the train near the supply depot. He attacked the train heavily, forcing its engineer to uncouple much of the consist as it thundered down the Macbeth rail line. Nearing the end of the line, Peppy told Fox to flip the switches controlling the bend into an unfinished branch line, which ended up colliding into the base.

The Engineer, in a last-ditch effort, hoped to distract Fox by uncoupling the rest of the consist and using the kite-like robotic attack vehicle within Mechbeth to distract him. Fox, however, did not take the bait. With the help of Katt Monroe, he was able to throw all eight switches and redirect Mechbeth at the supply base. Because the lead locomotive had accelerated too fast, the engineer was unable to stop the remaining consist in time. Mechbeth plowed straight through the temporary buffers at the end of the branch and down the unfinished section straight into the supply depot. In a large explosion, both Mechbeth and the supply depot were oblitherated. Star Fox then moved onward to assault Venom.
