When it comes to gamers wearing costumes, their favorite title list becomes the hunting grounds of costumes. Well, you can not blame them for that because there are a significant number of outstanding pieces of clothing. And if there is any industry of entertainment that has sorted the genre thing, that is the Gaming. Like everyone has their own sets of likes and dislikes. And because Gaming is a crazily vast billion-dollar industry. There are more things it has to offer than you might grasp. Either you want a costume for Game Con or Halloween or even costume parties. Surely there would be at least one on which you absolutely dwell your screen time. And it can not be possible that the game doesn’t have a signature costume. Well, you got to say, many in-game costumes are very cool and exceptional.
Mentioning all about the hype, so it may not feel like an exaggerated read. Why not have a look at some of the most highly praised pieces of costumes. Costumes which you will definitely find at least one gamer or costume lover wearing while wandering around in any gaming event. There are a few signature costumes of some games. Have their own sort of fan base, not only on the basis of their featured titles. But due to their somewhat prodigious features and looks, they carry. Suppose you are a Cyberpunk genre lover and have played the newly released titles from such genre. See how the Cyberpunk Jackets pop up in your head. And that wouldn’t have been possible if that costume was an ignorable one. So without further adieu, let’s talk about the costumes you shouldn’t overlook when hunting for costumes in the gaming realm.
Cyberpunk
As we already have talked about the Samurai Jackets, then let’s kick off the list with Cyberpunk 2077. Released last year and instantly became the best game ever to be developed under the genre of Cyberpunk. This game has absolutely everything to fall for this title; the moving storyline, most realistic graphics (let’s not forget that), the characters, and all of the above, the costumes. It at first glance, some of the costumes may not look like a piece of cake to construct. But with the right tools and Youtube tutorials. That costume is going to be the best one on the entire floor that you are going on with the costume on your shoulders.
Call of Duty
It’s a franchise, which you can see on a list of best-selling games of 50 years a couple of times. To this date, many titles are still one of the games that most gamers pick from their library. The first-person shooter game with an amazing storyline has always been on the top in action, shooting genre games.
Firstly their main tactics were to recreate the past battles. But some of their original worlds, like in the Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare, is the greatest one. The sequel of 24 games has won many awards. And it was the first game ever to receive the BAFTA Award for Best Game in 2002/03.
Half-Life
The Half-Life game is still kept alive by our gaming community as it was one of the earliest franchises that included zombie-like creatures. This Valve Corporation game has been titled a lot. But the most memorable and the most prestigious one was the “Game of the Year” at the BAFTA ceremony in 2004.
This title also had many installments to its name. But its Half-Life: Second Episode is one of the most remembered and the most respected in the sequel. The reason for its fame was its simplified multiplayer online version. At Spike 2012 Video Game Award Ceremony, Half-life was handed out with the title “Game Of The Decade.”
Batman
Among many movie superheroes, only a few have their very own gaming franchise that gets to be a part of the gaming community. Batman is the leading superhero in the gaming community. The fan following the self-made superhero of DC among the comic lovers, but the gamers are their first and probably the only character. One great thing about the game version is that the developers have more things to alter and add to movie directors. That’s why the game version has more fan following than the average movie viewers. Batman is one of the best and most beloved franchises in town and also among the cosplay community as its costumes are worth considering for the cosplay.
The Batman game franchise has many titles to offer (eight in total), and every single one of them is praised and loved by players all over the world. Many are the best selling, and others are still a part of our gaming community; the first-ever installment in 2009 received the most prestigious award in the gaming industry. This Batman game was the 6th game to receive this decoration. Since its distribution of the most admired award ceremony of the gaming community.
Far Cry
This is not an unheard name to a true gamer. This franchise has been in the A-list games from its first installment but didn’t get a chance to be as famous as other titles but has been entitled to some prestigious awards. With its third installment, Far Cry 3 got the deserved attention. Became a part of the gamers community, and the most prestigious award in the gaming industry, BAFTA Best Game of the Year in 2012.
The open-world third-person game with a fascinating storyline made a huge impact on the gamers; although it wasn’t the first-ever open-world game, it was still one best-selling game of the year. The main thing about Far Cry 3 at that time is the visual graphics. It was the best compared to any other game. This is why all the hardcore gamers really enjoyed the third installment and never have ever left the franchise; to date, Far Cry has maintained that high-end gaming experience for its fans.
Last of Us
As mentioned above, all the franchises had only one thing that got them the most prestigious title. But the Naughty Dog (developers) had something more than that in mind to offer gamers. Unlike any other game developer, where they make a story out of the game. They master their story first and then work on the game; they also keep the visual standards in mind. When the final piece came out, it shattered every chart and instantly became the people’s choice.
The post-zombie pandemic worldwide, and the survivors are doing everything in their expertise to keep themselves protected and stack. The heart-melting story of Joel and Sarah is praised by everyone who played the whole story mode. The title is very well detailed, graphically and emotionally. Many liked many things about the game: the landscapes, the relationships, Joel Miller’s jacket, Sarah and Joel’s daughter-father-like relationships. The amazing franchise has its significant values and is at least on the top-5-list of every gamer. In 2013 this delightful title won the 10th most prestigious award in the gaming industry.
God of War
There are so many things to like about this fascinating title. Sony Interactive Entertainment has been around for a long time. It has released several games that are still hard to let go by gamers. Among them is God of War, one of the most respected titles in the gaming community. The betrayal, the anger, Demigods, goddess, this game has the things that a great game needs to have.
The renewed game from the franchise received the most prestigious award, The Game of the Year, in 2018 at BAFTA Awards. Before that, this name wasn’t off the radar from the true gamers, and from its first installment, this title has been one of the most praised ones for a long time.
Outer Wilds
Last year, we didn’t have get-togethers like every year, but the host, Graham Norton, and the award “The Best Game Of the Year” were handed over by an Irish comedian gamer himself, Dara Ó Briain. Due to the pandemic, this show was preceded like never before in the British Academy Film and Television Arts Awards history. The costumes from the Outer Wilds are astounding, no doubt, but the video game costumes collection alone is one of the most praised attire/costumes in the game-inspired outfits in both the cosplayers and gamers. Last year’s winner was the Outer Wilds, probably the most desirable title in the entire nomination. The time-loped adventurous game is praised by the gaming community and will be remembered as long as there is a gamer community.
Conclusion
Surely, the gaming industry has surpassed a lot, and already where it stands today is a billion-dollar industry, and we all know it is only going to ascend. As long as companies are going to release such enjoyable titles, there are going to be millions of players to play those titles. And more games mean more characters, and more characters mean new costumes. You are never ever going out of the options for costumes either for your Halloween or Game con.
