==Original Continuity==

Not much of Bill Grey's background is known, except that he is a childhood friend of Fox McCloud, who inspired him to become a pilot. When he grew up, Bill became a member of the [[Corneria|Cornerian]] Air Force. During ''[[Star Fox 64]]'', Bill led a squadron to defend a base in [[Katina]] from an invasion force. Depending on the route, [[Star Fox (team)|Star Fox]] possibly comes to aid Bill. In the process Fox and Bill were reunited after presumably a long time, but they had no time to catch up as they still had to fight off the invasion and the mother ship.

Bill's next appearance depends on the outcome of the battle; if the base is destroyed by the invasion, then the Star Fox team moves on to [[Sector X]]. Bill comes after them and shows them the way to a hidden warp. If the invasion was successfully repelled, the Star Fox team travels to [[Solar]], and Bill appears there to give them supply rings.

In the game's ending, Bill flew alongside Star Fox while they were on their way back from Venom.

During the [[Anglar]] Invasion over a decade later in ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', Bill Grey was still protecting Katina from invasion. Eventually things got bad enough that he sent a distress signal to Star Fox. He ended up teaming up with [[Falco Lombardi|Falco]] and [[Slippy Toad|Slippy]] in order to drive off the Anglars from the planet. Afterwards he related to them about the time he had spent fighting beside [[Krystal]] during her time in the Cornerian Air Force before the two were called to [[Titania (planet)|Titania]].
 
 
During the [[Anglar]] Invasion over a decade later in ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', Bill Grey was again protecting Katina from attackers. The situation became bad enough that he sent a distress signal to Star Fox. He ended up teaming up with [[Falco Lombardi|Falco]] and [[Slippy Toad|Slippy]] in order to drive off the Anglars from the planet. Afterwards, he told them about the time he spent fighting beside [[Krystal]] during her time in the Cornerian Air Force before the other two were called away to [[Titania (planet)|Titania]].
 
 
 
==Star Fox Zero==
 
 
 
In ''[[Star Fox Zero]]'', Bill seemed to be mostly the same as in the original continuity. He appeared to help in the battle at [[Sector β]], where he focused on taking on Venomian fighters. He was unable to assist in the ensuing battle with [[Star Wolf]]. As in ''Star Fox 64'', his ship later escorted Star Fox back at the end of the game.
