#50
Ms. Pac-Man
Arcade, 1981


Obligatory. You have to respect the first lady of video games.

#49
Elizabeth of Bioshock Infinite
Xbox 360, 2013


No one can resist Elizabeth's wholesome, girl-next-store charm.

#48
Ivy of Soul Calibur V
Xbox 360, 2012


That looks like a lot to unwrap. I would not know where to start.

#47
Giga Mermaid of Shantae: Half-Genie Hero
Wii U, 2016

Oh yeah - like I'm the only one here with a thing for mermaids! Please.

#46
Sonya Blade of Mortal Kombat Trilogy
PS1, 1996

Her kiss is deadly, but hey - some things are worth dying for.

#45
Barker Bill's Trick Shooting
NES, 1989


This lady has a 1950's-era Playboy bunny style that's very classy.
Editor's Note: This is a kid's game??

#44
Lilith from Darkstalkers 3
Playstation, 1998


I think this little freak is tired of playing second fiddle to Morrigan.

#43
Samus from Metroid
NES, 1986


So... the faster you beat the game, the less clothes she wears?
That's awesome. I mean sexist!
Editor's note: Good recovery!

#42
Chun Li
Street Fighter II
SNES, 1992


Chun Li was such an cute girl until Capcom decided to give her massive Hulk Hogan thunder thighs.

#41
Trophy Girl from Street Smart
Genesis, 1991


I bet there would be a lot more street fighting going on if there were really prizes like this.

#40
Sarah Bryant from Virtua Fighter 5
PS3, 2005


She's the quintessential girl next door,
assuming that girl is dressed in leather and can kill you with her bare hands.

#39
Eliminator Boat Duel
NES, 1991

I don't think his girlfriend is too pleased with this turn of events.

#38
Poison Ivy of Injustice 2
Playstation 4, 2017


Not exactly a video game icon, but Poison Ivy she steals every scene in the Injustice games.

#37
T&C Surf Designs: Thrilla's Surfari
NES, 1992

I heard a funny story about a guy who would beat this game over and over just to get a look at this babe!
When it comes to ending screens, this has to be one of the best.

#36
Ring Girl of Evander Holyfield's Real Deal Boxing
Genesis, 1993

Uh... what round is it again?

#35
The Princess from Skull and Crossbones
NES, 1990


Who is hypnotizing who here?

#34
Chiki Chiki Boys
Genesis, 1993

It just so happens this goddess prefers not to wear pants.

#33
Shaia of Voltage Fighter Gowcaiser
Neo Geo, 1995

You think fighting in an outfit like that is EASY?

#32
Mileena of Mortal Kombat 2
Genesis, 1993

So she has an overbite. Nobody's perfect.

#31
Kitana of Mortal Kombat 2
Genesis, 1993

Mileena's twin sister is FAN-tastic!!
Editor's note: Just STOP.

#30
Pretty Amy from Lee Trevino's Fighting Golf
NES, 1988


WTH? Did Lee Trevino sign off of this?!

#29
Kisarah of Aggressors of Dark Kombat
Neo Geo, 1994

Apparently she goes to a Catholic school. Probably very religious.

#28
Girls of Beach Spikers
GameCube, 2002


I heard these girls are looking for two oil boys to grease them up before each competition!

#27
Brooke Burke of Need For Speed 2: Most Wanted
Xbox, 2005

This game has some of the best graphics I've ever seen. Also, cars, or something.

#26
Trophy Girls from Super Off Road
Sega Master System, 1998

These three pixeled dudes are living their best digital lives, and I couldn't be happier for them.

#25
Sophie from Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds
Playstation 3, 2008


Is it just me, or is Sophie just a little bit trashy?

#24
Lady from Battle Royale
Turbografx-16, 1990

Who would have guessed you'd find a bombshell like this in cheesy wrestling title?

#23
Raven from Immercenary
3DO, 1994


If I am ever abducted by this seductive intergalactic queen, do NOT rescue me.
Promise me you will not!!

#22
Princess Daphne from Dragon's Lair
3DO, 1993


Nobody ever remembers the actual dragon from this game, for some reason.

#21
Zero Suit Samus from Metroid
NES, 1987 IGN


This outfit is slightly more flattering than the standard issue space marine uniform.

#20
Cheerleader from Tecmo Bowl
NES, 1988


A friend of mine told me that seeing this cut scene as a kid made him realize he liked girls.

#19
Ashley from Night Trap
Sega CD, 1992


You could make a case that this blonde is the single reason we have ratings on video games today.

#18
Referee from Super Spike V'Ball
NES, 1988


How can these pixelated volleyball players possibly concentrate with this hottie officiating?

#17
Kara from Detroit: Become Human
Playstation 4, 2018


Kara is a very kind-hearted individual who stands up for those who cannot stand up for themselves.
And how about that body!? WOWZA!!
Editor's note: Inappropriate! Inappropriate!

#16
Celebration Girls from Soccer Brawl
Neo Geo, 1991


I could look at this score all day!

#15
Kasumi of Dead or Alive 3
Xbox, 2001


When it comes to the Dead or Alive franchise, Kasumi has got to be the hottest of the hotties.

#14
Blaze from Streets of Rage
Genesis, 1991


The only thing better than a hot chick kicking ass is a hot chick kicking ass in these outfits.

#13
Nina Williams from Tekken Tag Tournament
PS2, 2000


Thigh highs? Check. Heels? Check. Form-fitting outfit? Check.
NINJA ENSEMBLE COMPLETE.

#12
The Girls of Big Buck Hunter Arcade
Xbox One, 2016


I'm starting to think maybe this game isn't so bad after all.

#11
Cammy of Street Fighter II
SNES, 1992


If you got it, flaunt it.

#10
Dark Queen from Battletoads
NES, 1991


Who would have thought a game about toads could be so sexy?!

#9
Isabella from Snatcher
Sega CD, 1994


I believe further investigation is warranted.
Editor's Note: We GET it!

#8
Jane from Plumbers Don't Wear Ties
3DO, 1994

Congratulations. You've just seen the best part of the entire game.

#7
Mai Shiranui from King of Fighters 95
Neo Geo, 1995


There aren't many female characters in King of Fighters, but I'll take quality over quantity.

#6
Eve from Stellar Blade
PS5, 2024


I'm told this chick is ushering in the next class of video game babes.
The future is looking good!

#5
Morrigan of Darkstalkers
Arcade, 1994


Voted most likely to be doodled in the margin of a seventh-grader's notebook.

#4
Tifa Lockhart from Final Fantasy VII Remake
PS4, 2020


Seems to be the runaway favorite of the RPG crowd. Who am I to argue?

#3
Kimberly from Space Ace
Arcade, 1984


Even hotter than Daphne in Dragon's Lair? I vote yes.

#2
Jill Valentine of Resident Evil 3
PS1, 1999


Ready to protect and serve in standard-issue police miniskirt, boots, and tube-top.

#1
Lara Croft from Tomb Raider Legend
PS2, 2006


To be honest, I didn't expect her to top this revised list.
Lara may have lost some of her cachet over the decades,
but no one has yet been able to dethrone this video game legend.

Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed that.
