* The premise of ''Literature/{{Everworld}}'' is that the gods of [[AllMythsAreTrue various mythologies]] decided to abandon our world, so they created Everworld and moved over there, bringing some followers with them. After a while, gods from ''other'' worlds also found their way there along with their alien worshipers. Upon meeting some [[https://everworld.fandom.com/wiki/Coo-Hatch Coo-Hatch]], Christopher even thinks that they look too different from anything on Earth to be "just" a legendary creature. The other main species we meet are the Hetwan, InsectoidAliens whose god, [[EldritchAbomination Ka Anor]], wants to [[ImAHumanitarian eat the other gods]] and wipe out Everworld's mortal inhabitants.

* The SwordAndSandal movie ''Film/HerculesAgainstTheMoonMen'' is pretty self-explanatory, with an army of [[{{Lunarians}} men from the moon]] invading UsefulNotes/AncientGreece.

An extraterrestrial being, or beings, in a setting that is otherwise completely traditional fantasy. Typically, this means the aliens arrived on the planet using means other than space ships, such as loosely defined magic or a meteor impact. If the aliens are landing in a space ship and shooting laser guns, then it probably leans more towards ScienceFantasy. Though works on the Science Fantasy spectrum can still have [[TitleDrop fantasy aliens]], the main idea being that these alien creatures come from a world beyond the capacity or knowledge of its ordinary denizens, something like ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}'' which is fantasy but features space travel wouldn't really apply.

** In ''Videogame/FinalFantasyXIV'', it's revealed that the entire race of dragons are extraterrestrial creatures. Their progenitor, Midgardsormr, came to Hydaelyn after fleeing a devastating war on their homeworld provoked by an unknown other alien species. Later, Midgardsormr also confirms that an ancient machine called Omega is the alien war machine built by the unnamed aliens that he fought back on his home planet.
* ''Videogame/FireEmblemThreeHouses'': Later in the game, it's revealed that [[spoiler:the "goddess" Sothis is in fact a {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien|s}} that came from another world. It's implied that Fodlan is not the first world that she has visited and cultivated life and civilizations on.]]

* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask'': A group of monsters resembling the Flatwood Aliens attack a ranch that need to be stopped. Their "ship" for want of a better term, appears as a glowing ball of light. Majora's Mask is otherwise a completely straight fantasy setting.

* ''TabletopGame/{{Pathfinder}}'': Golarion is for the most part a HighFantasy setting with pulp influences, but also features cosmic and extraterrestrial elements fairly often as a result of GenreBlending. These are usually inspired by either PlanetaryRomance stories such as Literature/JohnCarterOfMars or by CosmicHorror, but also feature such things as a hyper-advanced starship that crashed into one of the world's countries, populating it with robots and aliens who escaped from its shattered hulk. In a twist, Golarion's [[OurElvesAreDifferent elves]] are this, rather than having ties to fey and such; they originally came from Castrovel (a forest-covered Venus-equivalent) through magic portals, and their affinity for woodlands is because it reminds them of home.

Compare ''and'' contrast WizardsFromOuterSpace, which places solidly-defined fantasy beings in a sci-fi setting.

* The ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' series was once theorized by fans that the main settings, Equestria non-canonically takes place on a terrestrial planet, similar to Earth. The main race are of course the sentient ponies, but they do have earth-like animals, monsters and many other creatures from Greek mythology, some being intelligent enough to be races, like dragons, griffins, changelings, yaks, and hippogriffs, for instance. The diamond dogs, breezies, and the draconequus Discord look like they could be considered "aliens". Many fans calls it "Equus".

** The franchise sometimes leans towards sci-fi, but even in the more strictly fantasy settings aliens can be a somewhat common occurrence. Notable examples are Zemus and the Lunarians in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIV'' (as well as the Creator from the sequel, ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIVTheAfterYears'', Jenova in ''Videogame/FinalFantasyVII'' and Garland and the Terrans in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIX'' are all aliens that serve as big bads of the story.

* ''Videogame/TalesOfLegendia'': Humans, referred to "Orerines", are under constant threat and harassment by another group of invaders called the "Ferines", an aquatic-based race of unknown origins that look identical to humans, and have developed a powerful superweapon that could destroy all land and wipe out human civilization. However, a very late plot twist reveals that [[spoiler:it's the ''Orerines'' (humanity) that are the invaders. Thousands of years ago, the world the story takes place in was an ocean world with no landmasses. The continent that the story takes place on is actually a gigantic ColonyShip that is able to become and create inhabitable land. The Ferines were the original inhabitants of the planet, whose lives began disrupted and oppressed when the human ship terraformed their world.]]

Though, up to that point, the series as a whole already leaned closer to ScienceFantasy, having a classic fantasy setting ([[FunctionalMagic magic]], [[TheGoodKingdom kingdoms]], princesses, etc.) with many sci-fi elements like {{Magitek}} and technological [[{{Superweapon}} Superweapons]].
