History FieryRedhead / VideoGames

** While normally a brunette, Sora has red hair in [[WesternAnimation/MonstersInc Monstropolis]], and at one point, becomes impulsive enough to try and smash a terminal with the Keyblade if it means escaping a burning section of the factory.

* ''VideoGame/DarkCloud2'': Monica Raybrandt. Even though the game's point of view is centered on Max, she's the leader in the team and has a... unique sense of humor, especially where Firbits are concerned.

*** At first, [[EvilSorcerer Zant]] looks like a collected antagonist, but once you reach his throne and he takes his helmet off (revealing red hair at the extremity of his balaclava), he goes through a SanitySlippage, and his boss fight is as much a [[FinalExamBoss megamix of the previous boss fights]] as it is [[ConfusionFu a festival of crazy moves]] [[CreepilyHighPitchedVoice and loud noises from the usurper]]. At the end of the fight, Midna tells Zant in his face that his unstable temper is the exact reason he was refused the throne in the first place (a flashback prior to the fight also reveals that after this refusal, he was crying [[PsychopathicManchild like a child who was denied a present]]).

** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBlazingBlade'': The FinalBoss is a furious [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Fire Dragon]]. While it may lack hair due to being a hairless reptile, it's [[RedIsViolent blood-red scales]] and [[RedEyesTakeWarning eyes]] lend itself perfectly for bringing the intimidation factor alongside bellowing [[RoarBeforeBeating ear-splitting roars right before]] it turns whoever is in its way into nothing more than a [[KillItWithFire smoldering wreck on the ground]]. That's before you take into account that its brethren were killed, [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge and it has decided to burn the whole damn continent it's standing on to the ground]].

** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance'' and ''VideoGame/FireEmblemRadiantDawn'': Instead of having attractive looks as many examples before, Oliver is unique in that he is [[BigFun morbidly obese]], balding and [[FashionVictimVillain offensively overdressed]]. He can be quite [[AxCrazy zealous]] and [[BewareTheSillyOnes extreme]] when protecting things, he deems as beautiful and desirable. What's more, on top of being ''really'' powerful and puts sinister in SinisterMinister and having lost his DirtyCoward traits in favor of being NotAfraidToDie, this guy has the '''[[TheFightingNarcissist audacity to believe that he is the most beautiful man in the world!]]'''

** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriorsThreeHopes'': Monica von Ochs falls into this trope mostly through her drive and expressions of passion and devotion. Her temper is commented on by Hubert, however, outright calling her "flush with rage".

* ''VideoGame/GoldenSun'': Mars Adepts typically partner this trope with [[HotBlooded Hot Blood]] and PersonalityPowers, making them good cases of ColorCodedForYourConvenience. Red hair = [[PlayingWithFire fire!]] As of ''VideoGame/GoldenSunDarkDawn'', we have:

* ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'': Tsubaki is a rare example of this trope being DoubleSubverted. She's a redhead, but for all of the first game (where she was an NPC), she was a studious, level-headed, rather pleasant YamatoNadeshiko. Where the double subversion kicks in is when she is introduced as a playable character with her own story in the second game: she's actually a deeply wounded ClingyJealousGirl to her love-interest Jin. [[spoiler:It goes so far that not only does she become a vengeful, screaming maniac whenever someone gets too close to him, she actually tries to murder her friend Noel after BigBad Hazama convinces her that Noel stole away her chance to be with him, and she performs a FaceHeelTurn. Fortunately, Tsubaki ''can't'' bring herself to kill Noel, and later both Noel and Makoto can bring her back to the side of good.]].
* ''VideoGame/BodyBlows'': Danny is a redheaded {{Delinquent}} from Boston who puts his anger to good use in battle against various other street fighters, martial artists, robots, and aliens. For that matter he, to quote his character profile from the first game, "has learnt to control rage to [[KamehameHadoken produce bolts of pure aggression]]."

** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance'' and ''VideoGame/FireEmblemRadiantDawn'': Instead of having attractive looks as many examples before, Oliver is unique in that he is [[BigFun morbidly obese]], balding and [[FashionVictimVillain offensively overdressed]]. He can be quite [[AxCrazy zealous]] and [[BewareTheSillyOnes extreme]] when protecting things he deems as beautiful and desirable. What's more, on top of being ''really'' powerful and puts sinister in SinisterMinister and having lost his DirtyCoward traits in favor of being NotAfraidToDie, this guy has the '''[[TheFightingNarcissist audacity to believe that he is the most beautiful man in the world!]]'''

* ''Franchise/MegaMan'': ''VideoGame/MegaManClassic'': ''VideoGame/MegaMan1'': Fire Man, who was a [[IncrediblyLamePun red fieryhead]]. His ''VideoGame/MegaManPoweredUp'' depiction is HotBlooded to the point of sounding like [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Yosemite Sam]].

** A more benign example is the auburn haired [[TomboyPrincess Princess Daisy]] (who only appears in sports and party games after ''VideoGame/SuperMarioLand'') who [[PassionateSportsGirl takes every competition with extreme passion]] and [[CuteButCacophonic lets everybody know about it]].
