The '''Barrier Sphere''' is an item in ''[[Star Fox: Assault]]'' which creates a shield around a pilot when activated, making him or her completely invulnerable to harm for a limited time. Barriers are especially useful when surrounded by a large swarm of enemies or in close combat with an enemy with heavy firepower. One can find barriers lying around levels in specific places, and players who die in [[Versus Mode]] will receive one upon respawning, or two if playing as [[Krystal]]. Differing from common belief, the barrier ''does'' actually protect the user from a ram of a [[Landmaster]]. However, since the ramming power of the Landmaster has many hitboxes, if the barrier does not have enough energy left to take the first blow, the player will be damaged by one of the latter hitboxes.

It is never actually mentioned what creates the barrier shield, be it a hidden technological device or some kind of mystic force, but many people believe that barriers are based on the [[Reflector]] used by [[Fox McCloud]] and other characters in the ''[[:Category:Super Smash Bros. Games|Super Smash Bros. series]]''.

*A secret barrier was found in ''[[Star Fox 64]]'' when a player was fiddling with cheats. It appears to be a beta powerup that would utilize the [[Gravity Diffusion|G-Diffuser]]s to create a invincible barrier around Fox's [[Arwing]].
