Various new locations and recurring sites appear with each subsequent installment in the F-Zero video game series. Many characters from these games have courses taking place on their own home planet. Earth is the host of some of the more well-known locations in these video games. Even though in this franchise most planets are briefly mentioned, a few contain much more elaborate information.

This is the home to the brown-skinned Furikake people, including Gomar and Shioh. Their custom have the people paired up with a partner when they are born and must do everything together.[3]

Magica Princia is the princess of the Desert Kingdom on this planet, which is a society with highly advanced scientific knowledge. She snuck off to travel around the universe with her servants, and when she came to Earth, she saw an F-Zero race and decided that she wanted to be a pilot.[3]

Takora It is home to a race of red-skinned intelligent octopuses called Takoraians. F-Zero GX stated that this planet is economically devastated due to the on-going war with the Milky Way Space Federation and the battle between the two gets more tense with each passing day.[2] Octoman is a representative of Takora who will give his race winnings to secure their future. The Takoraians do not have highly advanced scientific technology, so it was difficult for them to build a quality racer.[3]
Tortiz 3 Pico's biography in F-Zero X states that it is speculated he is from planet Tortiz 3,[5] even though in the first F-Zero title states he is from Death Wind.[4]
White A giant crocodile on this planet attacked Beastman which inspired him to hunt dangerous alien animals.
Zou (Kericho) A planet that had been in a war 12 years previously, which is home to a bipedal, beast like race. Leon wants to use his race money to keep the children from this planet out of poverty. In F-Zero X, Kericho is said to be Leon's home planet, but in F-Zero GX it is called Zou.
