** The unisaur looks sort of like an antelope, except it has small forearms like a tyrannosaur, a single curved horn, and a long brushlike tail.
** The hopeye is a giant kangaroo mouse with purple fur, several eyes and the behaviour of a rabbit (living in groups, thumping its feet to warn of danger).
** Vriki are pink spider-octopus aliens that tend to latch onto people's legs.

* ''VideoGame/{{Aion}}'''s natural wildlife would fit right at home with the ''[[Franchise/WinnieThePooh Woozles]]'' or ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender''; amongst the combination seen in the game: Faurons (ram/wildebeests), Airons (crane/peacocks), Brax (boar/bison), Snufflers (armadillo/elephant), Sparkies (beetle/firefly), and pangolin squirrels.
* [[spoiler:Kuro]] from the card battle/otome game ''VideoGame/AyakashiRomanceReborn'' is a [[spoiler:Nue]] (see "Mythology" above for the description of this {{Youkai}}). He keeps it a secret.
* The ''VideoGame/BatenKaitos'' have such things as "bunnycats" (long-eared cats), "pows" (pigs that give large quantities milk, and are white colored with black splotches) , as well as Dog/Deer and Sheep/Goat hybrids.
* In ''VideoGame/BillyHatcherAndTheGiantEgg'', the hatchable animals include a kangaroo/lion, a sheep/camel/ostritch, a monkey/bat, a cheetah/gazelle, and a rhino/bird...thing.
* One of the levels in ''VideoGame/ConkersBadFurDay'' involves trying to save a group of "catfish" (half-cat, half-fish) from a "bullshark" (half bulldog, half shark).
* ''VideoGame/{{CarnEvil}}'' has deadly "spider-monkeys" (crosses between monkeys and spiders) in the Freak Show stage.
* The fifth boss of ''VideoGame/ChimeraBeast'' resembles a green-coloured cross between a lion and a boar.
* ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot'':
** Dingodile and Rilla Roo, both anthropomorphic, are near-equal parts dingo and crocodile, and gorilla and kangaroo, respectively.
** The now-defunct epilogue of ''VideoGame/CrashTeamRacing'' said that Dingodile went on to form him own highly successful business which made even more of them, including the Gir-Bat, Kanga-Rooster and Dingo-Rilla. "Combine them all", indeed.
** ''VideoGame/CrashOfTheTitans'' and ''VideoGame/CrashMindOverMutant'' have mix and match critters in the form of the mutants. Examples of such are the Scorporilla (Scorpion/Gorilla), the Snipe (Fox/Tropical Bird) the Rhinoroller (Rhino/Armadillo) and the Battler...which is half Bat, half ''Switch Blade''!
* The online game ''VideoGame/DragonFable'' inflicted the Dreaded Chickencow upon the world. Head, wings, breast, and front legs of a chicken, hindquarters of a cow; all of which adds up to the meat industries' dreams manifested in flesh.
* ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'' has several, such as the Catbear.
* ''VideoGame/DragonQuest'':
** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestII'': Pazuzu is a long-tailed monkey with wings and ears of bat.
** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestIX'': Nodoph is part lion, part dragon, and maybe part ape; his monster type's fairly clearly a nod to the mythical Chimaera and Manticore monsters.
* ''VideoGame/TheDungeonOfDoom'' gives us Alligogs (alligator-frogs) and Lizzogs (lizard-frogs).
* ''VideoGame/EpicBattleFantasy5'' has the Camel Mammoth, a mammoth with yellow-tan fur and a camel's humps. Anna cracks up at the sight of it:
--> "Haha, is that some kind of desert mammoth? I've never seen such a derpy animal before."
* ''VideoGame/{{Fallout}}'':
** ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'' has Nightstalkers, the result of an experiment in splicing coyote and rattlesnake DNA.
** So far all versions of the game have centaurs as well, which are a mixture of humans, dogs, cats, and FEV.
** ''VideoGame/Fallout1'' & ''2'' have the pigrat as well. Also, the deathclaw is a mixture of Jackson's chameleon and various 'other species'.
** The main selling point of ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 4}}'''s ''Automatron'' [=DLC=] is the addition of a new RobotBuddy companion who can be upgraded and customised using various parts from the different robots of the ''Fallout'' universe. She starts out with an Assaultron's head and upper body, a Protectron's stubby legs, and a GatlingGood for a right arm, but her body, armament and characteristics can all be made different by swapping with parts you can collect in your travels, whether you want a FragileSpeedster CloseRangeCombatant or a MightyGlacier LongRangeFighter. You can also customize your BattleButler Codsworth, a Mr. Handy, to your liking.
* Crowrilla from ''VideoGame/FightOfAnimals'' is a gorilla with the feathers and head of a crow.
* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
** The series features mole-bats, or ''moguri'', known in English as Moogles. The fact that they end up looking more like teddy bears than anything else can be chalked up to the RuleOfCute. [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyTacticsAdvance In]] [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII Ivalice]], [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyTacticsA2 though]], moogles tend to look more like a half-bunny, half-bat.
** In ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII we have the [[BigCreepyCrawlies kimera bug]] with the head and body of a mantis, the head and spinnerets of a spider, and the head and wings of a butterfly.
* Torque from ''VideoGame/FreedomPlanet'' is a "shellduck": A duck wearing a tortoise shell. Aside from a skeptical comment from Lilac, nobody really seems to notice. [[spoiler: Although it's subverted in that the shellduck is a poorly-constructed disguise, and Torque is actually an alien.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Gauntlet}} Dark Legacy'''s Chimera: A lion's body with dragon wings and eagle talons instead of claws, with three heads: A snake, a lion, and an eagle, to correlate with the three types of Gargoyles and their elements (Poison, Fire, and Electricity, respectively.)
* ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'' has its share of these:
** ''Ghost of Sparta'' has SeaMonster Scylla, who has teeth and jaw of the shark (but with even [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily more teeth]]), tentacles of the squid, as well as shells of crustaceans.
** In ''II'' there is also the Kraken who has octopus-like tentacles and mostly humanoid-like appearance just like in the ''Film/ClashOfTheTitans'' film.
** ''Ascension'' gives us Manticore who has an interesting design, having a large purple lion-like body with chiropteran wings and chitinous plates, a spiked scorpion tail, the upper head and nuzzle of a lion and the maws of a shark.
** In ''III'', there are Chimera enemies who just like in the original Greek Mythology, have lion-like body with lion and goat heads and snake-like tail.
** Also from ''III''', there are Hippocampi, who are water horses with tails of fish, and lobster-like limbs.
* ''VideoGame/HalfLife2'' has the Antlions, ant-like critters with the comparable size and strength of lions. They sound creepy, but admittedly they can get really cute.
* ''VideoGame/{{Halo 2}}'': Everyone say hello to [[https://halo.wiki.gallery/images/3/30/H2_DobermanGator_Concept.jpg Doberman-Gator!]]
* Deathstalker Rexxar in ''VideoGame/{{Hearthstone}}'' lets you make your own with your hero power. Choose a beast from two sets of three, smash them together, and have fun!
* ''VideoGame/HeroesOfMightAndMagic'':
** In ''I'' and ''II'', while no explanation was given (beyond the one implicit in them being the diametric opposition to the nature-focused Sorceresses) this was a theme for the Warlocks -- in ''I'' half their available creatures belong in this trope (and they were alone in having creatures that fit it), while in ''II'' half their base creatures belong in this trope[[note]]upgraded variants counted separately, it is 4/9th of the creatures[[/note]], and the only non-Warlock mix-and-match is the neutral Medusa... who was turned into a Dungeon (equivalent of Warlock) creature for ''III''.
** In ''V'' and ''VI'', mix and match critters can be created in two ways: they're either {{Half Human Hybrid}}s known as 'beastmen' who were created by wizard's experiments, or two species can become fused by the powerful magic present in a dragon-vein ([[OurGriffinsAreDifferent griffins]] are believed to have been created in this manner).
* ''Hybrid Animals'' is a game ''based'' around this trope. By [[InterspeciesRomance breeding two different animals together]] from a list of them, you can create bizarre monstrosities such as a tiger-bunny or a T-rex-scorpion. Since every fusion is generated from an algorithm, your fusions will often look very odd, and more often than not will be either stronger or weaker than they look.
* This is the concept of ''VideoGame/ImpossibleCreatures'', a RealTimeStrategy game wherein you can make an army of chimeras from your choice of a few dozen base animals.
* ''VideoGame/ImpressiveTitle'':
** The player's avatar can fall under this thanks to CharacterCustomization allowing players to mix and match body parts to however they please. While they are limited to feline heads and lion bodies, they can still add things like fox tails, spotted hyena markings, and wings to their lion-like personas.
** {{Subverted}} with ''VideoGame/FeralHeart'' thanks to the introduction of species selection, so some markings, ear and tail shapes are exclusive only to feline and canine characters. However, there are some exceptions to the rule as players can still create wolves with cat tails.
* ''VideoGame/JadeCocoon 2'' has the Tomokana line of divine beasts, which have swordfish-like snouts, stingray fins and spiked lower bodies that can swell up like a pufferfish. There's also a monster from the Ku family that looks like a dog but has boar's tusks, a unicorn-like horn, an armored shell and a lobster-like tail.
* Many creatures in ''VideoGame/JakAndDaxter''. One of the main characters is an ottsel (otter-weasel), and there are yakows (yak-cow), crocadogs (crocodile-dog), monkaws (monkey-macaw) and hiphogs (hippo-hog) running around.
* The ''[[VideoGame/KatamariDamacy Katamari]]'' series (specifically ''We ♥ Katamari'' and ''Katamari Forever'') has the Cowbear (infamous for being one of the harder items to roll up) which consists of the upper half of a bear and the lower half of a cow.
* The pet system introduced to ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsX'' in late 2017 comes by default with cat options ("Kitstar") and dog options ("Pupstar") and various rewards have provided numerous other options, including rabbit options ("Bunstar"), pig options ("Pigstar") and reindeer options ("Reinstar") to name just a few. These can be freely mixed and matched with the arms, legs, ears, head and tail.
* ''VideoGame/KingdomOfLoathing'' has the Lobsterfrogmen. ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.
* You get the chance to play as one of these in ''VideoGame/EVOSearchForEden'', since the game lets you mix and match creature parts.
* ''VideoGame/{{Klonoa}}'':
** Klonoa himself. Combine one part cat, one part dog, one part rabbit, and [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter sixteen parts cute]].
** Popka, who is half dog, half insect, and also appears to be part stuffed animal too.
* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'': Blupees, magical creatures found around Hyrule's forests, resemble blue rabbits with owl-like faces and moth-like antennae.
* ''VideoGame/LetsBuildAZoo'': The CRISPR machine allows you to gene-splice two animal species together to create hybrids with the head of one species and the body of another.
* ''VideoGame/{{Lorwolf}}'':
** The premium currency Volmyr breed is a fusion of a wolf and a bat, interpreted as a wolf with bat-like wings attached to its arms.
** Many campaign enemies and companions also have this design, such as Vulpecitas combining foxes and butterflies and Canictonis combining swans with scorpions.
* ''VideoGame/MasterOfTheMonsterLair'': Many examples, including crowbats (crows with bat wings), crowcats (cats with crow wings), pigboars (granted they look about like regular boars), and buffalobull (a buffalo with longhorn bull horns). Also applies to a few bosses:
** The apple viper, which also qualifies as a {{Planimal}}.
** The rogue leon, which is a humanoid with lion head and bat wings.
** The devlin, which is half devil and half goblin.
* ''Merge Zoo'' focuses on making the strangest crosses you can (a tiger and a giraffe, anyone?) and seeing what kind of offspring results.
* ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' has the Mooshroom mob, which is a red-and-white half-cow, half-mushroom.
* ''VideoGame/MonsterCrown'' touts "True Crossbreeds" as one of its main features. Once monster breeding becomes available to the player, the offspring of any two creatures is a hybrid that incorporates both parents' appearances, abilities, and elemental affinities; for example, mixing a three-headed hydra with a wolf will produce a three-headed wolf.
* ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'':
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter2Dos'': What happens when you base a monster on a [[{{Youkai}} Raiju]], a gorilla, a mountain goat, and a minotaur for good measure? Rajang.
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterFreedom2'': What do you get when you cross-breed a dragon, a tiger, and a T. rex? A 22-meter-long embodiment of raw power, sheer ferocity and an incredibly foul temperament. Also known as a Tigrex.
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter3Tri'':
*** What do you get when you crossbreed a dragon and a smilodon? A Barioth. Also, pain. Lots and lots of pain.
*** And in the [[ReadingsAreOffTheScale Elder Dragon]] side of things, Jhen Mohran. Jhen Mohran is what happens when you cross a crocodile, a shark, and a whale and give it two narwhal tusks. The related Dah'ren Mohran, which debuted in ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter4'', replaces the narwhal tusks with a giant [[ThisIsADrill drill horn]].
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter4'':
*** What do you get when you toss a frog and a shark in a blender, then [[AnIcePerson freeze it?]] Zamtrios and its platoon of Zamite {{Mooks}}.
*** Kecha Wacha takes a proboscis monkey as its base and gives it the skin membranes of a flying squirrel while exaggerating its schnozz to resemble that of a tapir. The large eye patterns on the helmet-like" part of the membranes that go over its head resemble the eye-spots some caterpillars and moths use to intimidate predators.
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterWorld'':
*** Paolumu appears to be a fruit bat with the wing structure of a ''Microraptor'' and the head of a Sphinx cat. Its neck pouch may have been based on frogs and toads combined with the frills of a frilled lizard. This being a monster, Paolumu is a lot bigger than any of those animals.
*** What happens when you mix a seahorse, a vampire squid and a salamander and [[MakingASplash soak it?]] You get Namielle.
* ''VideoGame/MonsterSanctuary'':
** As its name suggests, the Gryphonix is a gryphon combined with a phoenix.
** Rampede looks like a mish-mash of several dinosaurs, with the head-frill and spikes of a ceratopsian, the tail-club of an anklyosaur, and the bipedal, hunched-over stance of a theropod.
** Rathops mostly looks like a ceratopsian, but it has feathers.
* ''VideoGame/MOTHER3'' provides the page image[[note]]clockwork from top left: Monkalrus, Parental Kangashark, Horsantula, Muttshroom and Ostrelephant[[/note]], with some of its many Chimarae; bio-engineered animal hybrids that are the standard {{mook}}s for most of the game. Some of the crazier ones, like the Cattlesnake and Pigtunia, aren't shown in the above image.
* ''VideoGame/MrSaitou'': The Llamaworms are striped llamas that are all head, neck, and no body. They are extremely flexible and can burrow into the ground just like a worm.
* UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast ActionRPG ''VideoGame/NappleTale'' has Frocar, anthropomorphic frog on top and automobile on the bottom. He's a [[PermanentElectedOfficial pillar of the community]]!
* ''VideoGame/NinjaShadowOfDarkness'': Some of the bosses are hybrid creatures. The first one is a combination of a Minotaur and a [[NeverSmileAtACrocodile giant crocodile]], while the Cloud City Boss is a [[TRexpy T-Rex with Dragon wings]] (it looks as ridiculous as it sounds, a combination of those massive wings with its scrawny arms...).
* ''VideoGame/NoMansSky'': The aliens are generated procedurally like the planets, but the game doesn't always take into account common sense when assembling them and since most of the body parts are based on real animals it occasionally leads to some... [[https://gfycat.com/OldfashionedUnkemptFritillarybutterfly interesting]] [[http://i.imgur.com/Nxoedeb.gifv results]].
* In ''VideoGame/{{Octogeddon}}'', Octogeddon starts off as a normal octopus with octopus tentacles, but with all the DNA it acquires it can replace those with crab claws, turtle shells, rooster heads, and many, many more.
* ''VideoGame/OviPets'' has this in spades due to the mutation mechanics. You can have wolves with cat heads, eagles with butterfly wings, lizards that look like platypuses, chickens that look like pigeons and ferrets that look like skunks to name just a few.
* In ''[[VideoGame/{{Parodius}} Gokujou Parodius]]'', the first boss is a tutu-wearing panda with a quacking duck's head on top of its own.
* ''VideoGame/{{Pikmin}}'': The Snagrets have the heads of a bird and the bodies of a snake. The Pikmin themselves are [[{{Planimal}} plant and animal hybrids]].
* Several Franchise/{{Pokemon}}, especially plant/animal hybrids under the Grass type.
** Arcanine is a [[CanisMajor large wolf-like dog]], with the stripes and coloration of a tiger that appears to be based on a Shisa (lion-dog cross that originated from sculptors that had never seen lions before referencing dogs and going by descriptions of lions).
** Seel and Dewgong resemble seals with large protruding teeth and single horns on their heads, reminiscent of the tusks of a walrus and the tusk of a narwhal. Dewgong's tail also slightly resembles that of a mermaid.
** Eevee and its Eeveelutions take aspects from foxes, dogs, cats, possibly rabbits, and in the case of Flareon, a lion, Jolteon, a coyote and a cheetah, and Vaporeon, a mermaid. The fandom generally, but not universally, believes that they are supposed to be seen more as foxes or dogs more so than the other animals they borrow traits from. Atsuko Nishida, designer of Eevee and everything that evolves from it, stated that she wanted Eevee to look like a mammal but [[CartoonCreature not resembling anything in particular]] to reflect the many different Pokémon it can become.
** Totodile's evolution Croconaw is a crocodilian that looks like a dinosaur with the crest on its head and the skin pattern resembling the wild hair and animal skin outfit of a caveman.
** Entei is a lion-like dog possibly based on similar myths as Arcanine. It's said to bark, and it has a mane and retractable claws like a lion.
** Mightyena and its pre-evolution, Poochyena, are based on hyenas, and have many wolf-like traits, like howling.
** Type: Null and Silvally from ''Sun and Moon'' are lab-produced chimeras with many traits coming from unknown sources. It has bird talons, a fish fin for a tail, a wolf-like head with a beak, cat or dog back feet with scales, and a crest of feathers on its head, and overall a wingless griffon-like appearance.
** Sharpedo is a shark with the body of an ocean sunfish.
** The Fossil Pokemon Dracozolt, Arctozolt, Dracovish and Arctovish from ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'' are [[FossilRevival revived from]] completely mismatched fossils -- one of two front halves (-zolt, -vish) and one of two back halves (Draco-, Arcto-), taking stats and abilities from both. Many of them have improper proportions and placements, such as Dracozolt's upper body being too small, Dracovish's head being placed on the end of the ''tail'', Arctovish's head being upside-down, etc.
* In ''VideoGame/QuestForGlory'', there are several of them:
** Mantray, a cross between a manta fish and a ray. They don't swim however: they fly and [[ShockAndAwe shoot lightning]].
** [[OurGriffinsAreDifferent A lone griffin]] is in the secodn game. It isn't hostile, but if you disturb or attack it, [[SuperPersistentPredator watch out]].
** Flying cobras are found in the third game and yes, they spit poison.
* In ''VideoGame/ReturnToMysteriousIsland'', Mina must get past a sea creature with a crocodile-like head and a shark's body. Possibly it's meant to be an ichthyosaur, but if so, the designers put its tail on upside-down.
* The ratigators from ''VideoGame/SewerShark''.
* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'':
** A variation occurs in ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure'' and [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 its sequel]], where the Chao develop physical traits similar to the small animals they play with (bunny ears, peacock crest, tiger arms...). Neutral and Dark "Run Type" Chao resemble Sonic and Shadow respectively, with blue or black striped head spines. Also, it's possible to make one look like ''Chaos''.
** The series also has Fang the Sniper (aka Nack the Weasel), who is a purple-furred bounty hunter. He is sometimes referred to as a "weasel-wolf" by fans but his actual species is wolf/jerboa. In North America he was accidentally referred to as a wolf/weasel for a period of time, resulting in fan confusion over his species.
* Part of the appeal of ''VideoGame/{{Spore}}'' is the ability to build your own Mix-and-Match Critters, among other possibilities.
* ''VideoGame/{{Starbound}}'''s concept is all about cranking up random generation, up to the animals inhabiting the planets, which can have a variety of weird body types grafted together.
* ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'':
** Yoshi is supposed to be a dinosaur... with a turtle-like shell that doubles as a saddle, a chamelon/froglike tongue that [[BigEater swallows]] [[ExtremeOmnivore everything]], and has been known to [[DinosaursAreDragons grow (feathered) wings and breathe fire]]... and he wears boots.
** Bowser is commonly confused to be a dragon-turtle, but he's actually designed to be an ox-turtle. Miyamoto originally envisioned him to be an ox, but his staff convinced him to make Bowser a turtle instead. Bowser's final design merged the two creatures.
** The first boss of ''VideoGame/VirtualBoyWarioLand'' is the aptly named "Dinosaur Fish."
* That's how traits of all organisms in ''[=SimLife=]'' are represented. Every type of ''head'' specifies creature's intelligence and diet, ''body'' represents mode of locomotion and habitat, and ''tail'' corresponds to type of reproduction. Same thing with plants with ''blossom'' signifying type of flowers and fruit; ''stem'' -- life cycle, biome and size; and ''roots'' -- habitat and conditions in which it's seeds sprout.
* ''VideoGame/SlimeRancher2'' has Sea Hens, which are chicken-shaped seagulls.
* ''VideoGame/Sly3HonorAmongThieves'' has Dr. M's henchmen, including elephants with bat wings and gorilla arms, alligators with lobster arms and kangaroo feet, and snakes with tiger arms and frog feet. Dr. M himself controls several giant monstrosities in his various fights, too.
* The [[SapientCetaceans Liir]] from the ''VideoGame/SwordOfTheStars'' games combine aspects from various sea creatures. They look mostly like dolphins, but also have patches of downy fur like seals, tentacles on their snouts like cephalopods, hermaphrodism like many sea invertebrates, and like lobsters they keep growing and growing until [[SquareCubeLaw their bodies get too big to be sustainable]] [[spoiler:except for the [[TheSociopath Suul'Ka]], [[ImmortalityImmorality who said "fuck that" and became]] {{Eldritch Abomination}}s instead.]]
* In ''VideoGame/{{Syberia}}'', youki have characteristics of seals, bears, and dogs.
* The Sea Creatures of ''VideoGame/TalesOfMonkeyIsland Chapter 2: The Siege of Spinner Cay''. They have the head of a sea horse, the body and shell of a turtle, the fins and flippers of a fish, and the large bulb antenna of an angler fish. [[HellIsThatNoise And their calls are... kind of weird]].
* ''VideoGame/TalesSeries'':
** In ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'', we have rappigs: pigs with soft pink fur and rabbit ears. [[BunnyEarsLawyer Emperor Peony]] keeps several as pets (and apparently also gives them as gifts to people he likes, at least according to one sidequest). They appear to be the size of real-life pigs in the game, but TheAnimeOfTheGame shows them being closer to the size of a small dog.
** ''VideoGame/TalesOfXillia'' clarifies this. Rappigs are biologically rabbits that look like pigs, and introduces a new species, Piggits, which are biologically pigs that look like rabbits. Naturally, due to a mix of convergent evolution and using the same character model, they look exactly the same.
* Longma from ''VideoGame/ThemsFightinHerds'' are horse/dragon hybrids. Tianhuo looks like a scaley horse with a firey mane.
* Some animals in ''VideoGame/UncleAlbertsAdventures'' turn into hybrids when you use the transformation potion on them.
** The frogen is a dragon/frog hybrid. It looks like an orange frog with dragon wings and a dragon tail.
** The spider/snail hybrid looks like a spider with a snail shell in place of the abdomen.
** The blue scorpion is described as a scorpion/frog hybrid by the laboratory scan.
** The yellow ladybug is described as a ladybug/stag beetle hybrid by the laboratory scan.
** The spotted stag beetle is a stag beetle/ladybug hybrid which looks like a stag beetle whose back is red with black dots.
** It's possible to turn Kipling the parrot into a parrot/frog hybrid. He looks exactly like a frog, but he retains his ability to talk.
* The [[PlanetOfSteves Temmies]] from ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' are strange, catlike creatures that also appear to have floppy dog ears.
* In ''VideoGame/VivaPinata: Trouble in Paradise'', depending on which bones you tinker, the Choclodocus can have the head of a ''Triceratops'', ''Brontosaurus'', or ''Stegosaurus'', as well as a tail that doesn't fit any of them.
* ''VideoGame/{{Warcraft}}'' games contain many mythological mix and match critters, such as gryphons, hippogryphs and chimaeras. Then there are wyverns, which are lions with batlike wings and scorpion tails (The "wyvern" name is odd since these beings are clearly ''manticores''), magnataurs (essentially a wooly mammoth centaur) and zhevras(zebras with a small horn on their forehead). There's also creatures that look mostly like real-world ones but with few parts added, like giraffes with gazelle-style horns and crocolisks (6-legged crocodiles).
* ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'':
** ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' includes Moonkin, which are owlbears, as well. Druid characters are shapeshifters, and if one takes the offensive spellcasting talents, you can change into one.
** ''[=WoW=]'' also has the wolpertinger. It has the body, head, feet, and tail of a hare... and fangs, wings, and antlers. They can also only be seen when ''[[MushroomSamba drunk]]''...
* The [[HelpfulMook Dragonturtles]] from the ''VideoGame/WonderlandAdventures'' games, which are [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin turtles with dragon horns]].
* ''VideoGame/YokusIslandExpress'': Kickback, your sidekick, has a body like a pufferfish, but flowing fins like a goldfish. [[spoiler:And during his reveal as the BigBad, [[OneWingedAngel he takes on gigantic talons and attributes from still other creatures]]]].
* Zera from ''VideoGame/ZeraMythsAwaken'' is supposed to look like a mix of an axolotl and a bat.
* [[spoiler:Kuro]] from the card battle/otome game ''VideoGame/AyakashiRomanceReborn'' is a [[spoiler:Nue]] (see "Mythology" above for the description of this {{Youkai}}). He keeps it a secret.
* The ''VideoGame/BatenKaitos'' have such things as "bunnycats" (long-eared cats), "pows" (pigs that give large quantities milk, and are white colored with black splotches) , as well as Dog/Deer and Sheep/Goat hybrids.
* In ''VideoGame/BillyHatcherAndTheGiantEgg'', the hatchable animals include a kangaroo/lion, a sheep/camel/ostritch, a monkey/bat, a cheetah/gazelle, and a rhino/bird...thing.
* One of the levels in ''VideoGame/ConkersBadFurDay'' involves trying to save a group of "catfish" (half-cat, half-fish) from a "bullshark" (half bulldog, half shark).
* ''VideoGame/{{CarnEvil}}'' has deadly "spider-monkeys" (crosses between monkeys and spiders) in the Freak Show stage.
* The fifth boss of ''VideoGame/ChimeraBeast'' resembles a green-coloured cross between a lion and a boar.
* ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot'':
** Dingodile and Rilla Roo, both anthropomorphic, are near-equal parts dingo and crocodile, and gorilla and kangaroo, respectively.
** The now-defunct epilogue of ''VideoGame/CrashTeamRacing'' said that Dingodile went on to form him own highly successful business which made even more of them, including the Gir-Bat, Kanga-Rooster and Dingo-Rilla. "Combine them all", indeed.
** ''VideoGame/CrashOfTheTitans'' and ''VideoGame/CrashMindOverMutant'' have mix and match critters in the form of the mutants. Examples of such are the Scorporilla (Scorpion/Gorilla), the Snipe (Fox/Tropical Bird) the Rhinoroller (Rhino/Armadillo) and the Battler...which is half Bat, half ''Switch Blade''!
* The online game ''VideoGame/DragonFable'' inflicted the Dreaded Chickencow upon the world. Head, wings, breast, and front legs of a chicken, hindquarters of a cow; all of which adds up to the meat industries' dreams manifested in flesh.
* ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'' has several, such as the Catbear.
* ''VideoGame/DragonQuest'':
** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestII'': Pazuzu is a long-tailed monkey with wings and ears of bat.
** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestIX'': Nodoph is part lion, part dragon, and maybe part ape; his monster type's fairly clearly a nod to the mythical Chimaera and Manticore monsters.
* ''VideoGame/TheDungeonOfDoom'' gives us Alligogs (alligator-frogs) and Lizzogs (lizard-frogs).
* ''VideoGame/EpicBattleFantasy5'' has the Camel Mammoth, a mammoth with yellow-tan fur and a camel's humps. Anna cracks up at the sight of it:
--> "Haha, is that some kind of desert mammoth? I've never seen such a derpy animal before."
* ''VideoGame/{{Fallout}}'':
** ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'' has Nightstalkers, the result of an experiment in splicing coyote and rattlesnake DNA.
** So far all versions of the game have centaurs as well, which are a mixture of humans, dogs, cats, and FEV.
** ''VideoGame/Fallout1'' & ''2'' have the pigrat as well. Also, the deathclaw is a mixture of Jackson's chameleon and various 'other species'.
** The main selling point of ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 4}}'''s ''Automatron'' [=DLC=] is the addition of a new RobotBuddy companion who can be upgraded and customised using various parts from the different robots of the ''Fallout'' universe. She starts out with an Assaultron's head and upper body, a Protectron's stubby legs, and a GatlingGood for a right arm, but her body, armament and characteristics can all be made different by swapping with parts you can collect in your travels, whether you want a FragileSpeedster CloseRangeCombatant or a MightyGlacier LongRangeFighter. You can also customize your BattleButler Codsworth, a Mr. Handy, to your liking.
* Crowrilla from ''VideoGame/FightOfAnimals'' is a gorilla with the feathers and head of a crow.
* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
** The series features mole-bats, or ''moguri'', known in English as Moogles. The fact that they end up looking more like teddy bears than anything else can be chalked up to the RuleOfCute. [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyTacticsAdvance In]] [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII Ivalice]], [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyTacticsA2 though]], moogles tend to look more like a half-bunny, half-bat.
** In ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII we have the [[BigCreepyCrawlies kimera bug]] with the head and body of a mantis, the head and spinnerets of a spider, and the head and wings of a butterfly.
* Torque from ''VideoGame/FreedomPlanet'' is a "shellduck": A duck wearing a tortoise shell. Aside from a skeptical comment from Lilac, nobody really seems to notice. [[spoiler: Although it's subverted in that the shellduck is a poorly-constructed disguise, and Torque is actually an alien.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Gauntlet}} Dark Legacy'''s Chimera: A lion's body with dragon wings and eagle talons instead of claws, with three heads: A snake, a lion, and an eagle, to correlate with the three types of Gargoyles and their elements (Poison, Fire, and Electricity, respectively.)
* ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'' has its share of these:
** ''Ghost of Sparta'' has SeaMonster Scylla, who has teeth and jaw of the shark (but with even [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily more teeth]]), tentacles of the squid, as well as shells of crustaceans.
** In ''II'' there is also the Kraken who has octopus-like tentacles and mostly humanoid-like appearance just like in the ''Film/ClashOfTheTitans'' film.
** ''Ascension'' gives us Manticore who has an interesting design, having a large purple lion-like body with chiropteran wings and chitinous plates, a spiked scorpion tail, the upper head and nuzzle of a lion and the maws of a shark.
** In ''III'', there are Chimera enemies who just like in the original Greek Mythology, have lion-like body with lion and goat heads and snake-like tail.
** Also from ''III''', there are Hippocampi, who are water horses with tails of fish, and lobster-like limbs.
* ''VideoGame/HalfLife2'' has the Antlions, ant-like critters with the comparable size and strength of lions. They sound creepy, but admittedly they can get really cute.
* ''VideoGame/{{Halo 2}}'': Everyone say hello to [[https://halo.wiki.gallery/images/3/30/H2_DobermanGator_Concept.jpg Doberman-Gator!]]
* Deathstalker Rexxar in ''VideoGame/{{Hearthstone}}'' lets you make your own with your hero power. Choose a beast from two sets of three, smash them together, and have fun!
* ''VideoGame/HeroesOfMightAndMagic'':
** In ''I'' and ''II'', while no explanation was given (beyond the one implicit in them being the diametric opposition to the nature-focused Sorceresses) this was a theme for the Warlocks -- in ''I'' half their available creatures belong in this trope (and they were alone in having creatures that fit it), while in ''II'' half their base creatures belong in this trope[[note]]upgraded variants counted separately, it is 4/9th of the creatures[[/note]], and the only non-Warlock mix-and-match is the neutral Medusa... who was turned into a Dungeon (equivalent of Warlock) creature for ''III''.
** In ''V'' and ''VI'', mix and match critters can be created in two ways: they're either {{Half Human Hybrid}}s known as 'beastmen' who were created by wizard's experiments, or two species can become fused by the powerful magic present in a dragon-vein ([[OurGriffinsAreDifferent griffins]] are believed to have been created in this manner).
* ''Hybrid Animals'' is a game ''based'' around this trope. By [[InterspeciesRomance breeding two different animals together]] from a list of them, you can create bizarre monstrosities such as a tiger-bunny or a T-rex-scorpion. Since every fusion is generated from an algorithm, your fusions will often look very odd, and more often than not will be either stronger or weaker than they look.
* This is the concept of ''VideoGame/ImpossibleCreatures'', a RealTimeStrategy game wherein you can make an army of chimeras from your choice of a few dozen base animals.
* ''VideoGame/ImpressiveTitle'':
** The player's avatar can fall under this thanks to CharacterCustomization allowing players to mix and match body parts to however they please. While they are limited to feline heads and lion bodies, they can still add things like fox tails, spotted hyena markings, and wings to their lion-like personas.
** {{Subverted}} with ''VideoGame/FeralHeart'' thanks to the introduction of species selection, so some markings, ear and tail shapes are exclusive only to feline and canine characters. However, there are some exceptions to the rule as players can still create wolves with cat tails.
* ''VideoGame/JadeCocoon 2'' has the Tomokana line of divine beasts, which have swordfish-like snouts, stingray fins and spiked lower bodies that can swell up like a pufferfish. There's also a monster from the Ku family that looks like a dog but has boar's tusks, a unicorn-like horn, an armored shell and a lobster-like tail.
* Many creatures in ''VideoGame/JakAndDaxter''. One of the main characters is an ottsel (otter-weasel), and there are yakows (yak-cow), crocadogs (crocodile-dog), monkaws (monkey-macaw) and hiphogs (hippo-hog) running around.
* The ''[[VideoGame/KatamariDamacy Katamari]]'' series (specifically ''We ♥ Katamari'' and ''Katamari Forever'') has the Cowbear (infamous for being one of the harder items to roll up) which consists of the upper half of a bear and the lower half of a cow.
* The pet system introduced to ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsX'' in late 2017 comes by default with cat options ("Kitstar") and dog options ("Pupstar") and various rewards have provided numerous other options, including rabbit options ("Bunstar"), pig options ("Pigstar") and reindeer options ("Reinstar") to name just a few. These can be freely mixed and matched with the arms, legs, ears, head and tail.
* ''VideoGame/KingdomOfLoathing'' has the Lobsterfrogmen. ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.
* You get the chance to play as one of these in ''VideoGame/EVOSearchForEden'', since the game lets you mix and match creature parts.
* ''VideoGame/{{Klonoa}}'':
** Klonoa himself. Combine one part cat, one part dog, one part rabbit, and [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter sixteen parts cute]].
** Popka, who is half dog, half insect, and also appears to be part stuffed animal too.
* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'': Blupees, magical creatures found around Hyrule's forests, resemble blue rabbits with owl-like faces and moth-like antennae.
* ''VideoGame/LetsBuildAZoo'': The CRISPR machine allows you to gene-splice two animal species together to create hybrids with the head of one species and the body of another.
* ''VideoGame/{{Lorwolf}}'':
** The premium currency Volmyr breed is a fusion of a wolf and a bat, interpreted as a wolf with bat-like wings attached to its arms.
** Many campaign enemies and companions also have this design, such as Vulpecitas combining foxes and butterflies and Canictonis combining swans with scorpions.
* ''VideoGame/MasterOfTheMonsterLair'': Many examples, including crowbats (crows with bat wings), crowcats (cats with crow wings), pigboars (granted they look about like regular boars), and buffalobull (a buffalo with longhorn bull horns). Also applies to a few bosses:
** The apple viper, which also qualifies as a {{Planimal}}.
** The rogue leon, which is a humanoid with lion head and bat wings.
** The devlin, which is half devil and half goblin.
* ''Merge Zoo'' focuses on making the strangest crosses you can (a tiger and a giraffe, anyone?) and seeing what kind of offspring results.
* ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' has the Mooshroom mob, which is a red-and-white half-cow, half-mushroom.
* ''VideoGame/MonsterCrown'' touts "True Crossbreeds" as one of its main features. Once monster breeding becomes available to the player, the offspring of any two creatures is a hybrid that incorporates both parents' appearances, abilities, and elemental affinities; for example, mixing a three-headed hydra with a wolf will produce a three-headed wolf.
* ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'':
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter2Dos'': What happens when you base a monster on a [[{{Youkai}} Raiju]], a gorilla, a mountain goat, and a minotaur for good measure? Rajang.
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterFreedom2'': What do you get when you cross-breed a dragon, a tiger, and a T. rex? A 22-meter-long embodiment of raw power, sheer ferocity and an incredibly foul temperament. Also known as a Tigrex.
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter3Tri'':
*** What do you get when you crossbreed a dragon and a smilodon? A Barioth. Also, pain. Lots and lots of pain.
*** And in the [[ReadingsAreOffTheScale Elder Dragon]] side of things, Jhen Mohran. Jhen Mohran is what happens when you cross a crocodile, a shark, and a whale and give it two narwhal tusks. The related Dah'ren Mohran, which debuted in ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter4'', replaces the narwhal tusks with a giant [[ThisIsADrill drill horn]].
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter4'':
*** What do you get when you toss a frog and a shark in a blender, then [[AnIcePerson freeze it?]] Zamtrios and its platoon of Zamite {{Mooks}}.
*** Kecha Wacha takes a proboscis monkey as its base and gives it the skin membranes of a flying squirrel while exaggerating its schnozz to resemble that of a tapir. The large eye patterns on the helmet-like" part of the membranes that go over its head resemble the eye-spots some caterpillars and moths use to intimidate predators.
** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterWorld'':
*** Paolumu appears to be a fruit bat with the wing structure of a ''Microraptor'' and the head of a Sphinx cat. Its neck pouch may have been based on frogs and toads combined with the frills of a frilled lizard. This being a monster, Paolumu is a lot bigger than any of those animals.
*** What happens when you mix a seahorse, a vampire squid and a salamander and [[MakingASplash soak it?]] You get Namielle.
* ''VideoGame/MonsterSanctuary'':
** As its name suggests, the Gryphonix is a gryphon combined with a phoenix.
** Rampede looks like a mish-mash of several dinosaurs, with the head-frill and spikes of a ceratopsian, the tail-club of an anklyosaur, and the bipedal, hunched-over stance of a theropod.
** Rathops mostly looks like a ceratopsian, but it has feathers.
* ''VideoGame/MOTHER3'' provides the page image[[note]]clockwork from top left: Monkalrus, Parental Kangashark, Horsantula, Muttshroom and Ostrelephant[[/note]], with some of its many Chimarae; bio-engineered animal hybrids that are the standard {{mook}}s for most of the game. Some of the crazier ones, like the Cattlesnake and Pigtunia, aren't shown in the above image.
* ''VideoGame/MrSaitou'': The Llamaworms are striped llamas that are all head, neck, and no body. They are extremely flexible and can burrow into the ground just like a worm.
* UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast ActionRPG ''VideoGame/NappleTale'' has Frocar, anthropomorphic frog on top and automobile on the bottom. He's a [[PermanentElectedOfficial pillar of the community]]!
* ''VideoGame/NinjaShadowOfDarkness'': Some of the bosses are hybrid creatures. The first one is a combination of a Minotaur and a [[NeverSmileAtACrocodile giant crocodile]], while the Cloud City Boss is a [[TRexpy T-Rex with Dragon wings]] (it looks as ridiculous as it sounds, a combination of those massive wings with its scrawny arms...).
* ''VideoGame/NoMansSky'': The aliens are generated procedurally like the planets, but the game doesn't always take into account common sense when assembling them and since most of the body parts are based on real animals it occasionally leads to some... [[https://gfycat.com/OldfashionedUnkemptFritillarybutterfly interesting]] [[http://i.imgur.com/Nxoedeb.gifv results]].
* In ''VideoGame/{{Octogeddon}}'', Octogeddon starts off as a normal octopus with octopus tentacles, but with all the DNA it acquires it can replace those with crab claws, turtle shells, rooster heads, and many, many more.
* ''VideoGame/OviPets'' has this in spades due to the mutation mechanics. You can have wolves with cat heads, eagles with butterfly wings, lizards that look like platypuses, chickens that look like pigeons and ferrets that look like skunks to name just a few.
* In ''[[VideoGame/{{Parodius}} Gokujou Parodius]]'', the first boss is a tutu-wearing panda with a quacking duck's head on top of its own.
* ''VideoGame/{{Pikmin}}'': The Snagrets have the heads of a bird and the bodies of a snake. The Pikmin themselves are [[{{Planimal}} plant and animal hybrids]].
* Several Franchise/{{Pokemon}}, especially plant/animal hybrids under the Grass type.
** Arcanine is a [[CanisMajor large wolf-like dog]], with the stripes and coloration of a tiger that appears to be based on a Shisa (lion-dog cross that originated from sculptors that had never seen lions before referencing dogs and going by descriptions of lions).
** Seel and Dewgong resemble seals with large protruding teeth and single horns on their heads, reminiscent of the tusks of a walrus and the tusk of a narwhal. Dewgong's tail also slightly resembles that of a mermaid.
** Eevee and its Eeveelutions take aspects from foxes, dogs, cats, possibly rabbits, and in the case of Flareon, a lion, Jolteon, a coyote and a cheetah, and Vaporeon, a mermaid. The fandom generally, but not universally, believes that they are supposed to be seen more as foxes or dogs more so than the other animals they borrow traits from. Atsuko Nishida, designer of Eevee and everything that evolves from it, stated that she wanted Eevee to look like a mammal but [[CartoonCreature not resembling anything in particular]] to reflect the many different Pokémon it can become.
** Totodile's evolution Croconaw is a crocodilian that looks like a dinosaur with the crest on its head and the skin pattern resembling the wild hair and animal skin outfit of a caveman.
** Entei is a lion-like dog possibly based on similar myths as Arcanine. It's said to bark, and it has a mane and retractable claws like a lion.
** Mightyena and its pre-evolution, Poochyena, are based on hyenas, and have many wolf-like traits, like howling.
** Type: Null and Silvally from ''Sun and Moon'' are lab-produced chimeras with many traits coming from unknown sources. It has bird talons, a fish fin for a tail, a wolf-like head with a beak, cat or dog back feet with scales, and a crest of feathers on its head, and overall a wingless griffon-like appearance.
** Sharpedo is a shark with the body of an ocean sunfish.
** The Fossil Pokemon Dracozolt, Arctozolt, Dracovish and Arctovish from ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'' are [[FossilRevival revived from]] completely mismatched fossils -- one of two front halves (-zolt, -vish) and one of two back halves (Draco-, Arcto-), taking stats and abilities from both. Many of them have improper proportions and placements, such as Dracozolt's upper body being too small, Dracovish's head being placed on the end of the ''tail'', Arctovish's head being upside-down, etc.
* In ''VideoGame/QuestForGlory'', there are several of them:
** Mantray, a cross between a manta fish and a ray. They don't swim however: they fly and [[ShockAndAwe shoot lightning]].
** [[OurGriffinsAreDifferent A lone griffin]] is in the secodn game. It isn't hostile, but if you disturb or attack it, [[SuperPersistentPredator watch out]].
** Flying cobras are found in the third game and yes, they spit poison.
* In ''VideoGame/ReturnToMysteriousIsland'', Mina must get past a sea creature with a crocodile-like head and a shark's body. Possibly it's meant to be an ichthyosaur, but if so, the designers put its tail on upside-down.
* The ratigators from ''VideoGame/SewerShark''.
* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'':
** A variation occurs in ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure'' and [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 its sequel]], where the Chao develop physical traits similar to the small animals they play with (bunny ears, peacock crest, tiger arms...). Neutral and Dark "Run Type" Chao resemble Sonic and Shadow respectively, with blue or black striped head spines. Also, it's possible to make one look like ''Chaos''.
** The series also has Fang the Sniper (aka Nack the Weasel), who is a purple-furred bounty hunter. He is sometimes referred to as a "weasel-wolf" by fans but his actual species is wolf/jerboa. In North America he was accidentally referred to as a wolf/weasel for a period of time, resulting in fan confusion over his species.
* Part of the appeal of ''VideoGame/{{Spore}}'' is the ability to build your own Mix-and-Match Critters, among other possibilities.
* ''VideoGame/{{Starbound}}'''s concept is all about cranking up random generation, up to the animals inhabiting the planets, which can have a variety of weird body types grafted together.
* ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'':
** Yoshi is supposed to be a dinosaur... with a turtle-like shell that doubles as a saddle, a chamelon/froglike tongue that [[BigEater swallows]] [[ExtremeOmnivore everything]], and has been known to [[DinosaursAreDragons grow (feathered) wings and breathe fire]]... and he wears boots.
** Bowser is commonly confused to be a dragon-turtle, but he's actually designed to be an ox-turtle. Miyamoto originally envisioned him to be an ox, but his staff convinced him to make Bowser a turtle instead. Bowser's final design merged the two creatures.
** The first boss of ''VideoGame/VirtualBoyWarioLand'' is the aptly named "Dinosaur Fish."
* That's how traits of all organisms in ''[=SimLife=]'' are represented. Every type of ''head'' specifies creature's intelligence and diet, ''body'' represents mode of locomotion and habitat, and ''tail'' corresponds to type of reproduction. Same thing with plants with ''blossom'' signifying type of flowers and fruit; ''stem'' -- life cycle, biome and size; and ''roots'' -- habitat and conditions in which it's seeds sprout.
* ''VideoGame/SlimeRancher2'' has Sea Hens, which are chicken-shaped seagulls.
* ''VideoGame/Sly3HonorAmongThieves'' has Dr. M's henchmen, including elephants with bat wings and gorilla arms, alligators with lobster arms and kangaroo feet, and snakes with tiger arms and frog feet. Dr. M himself controls several giant monstrosities in his various fights, too.
* The [[SapientCetaceans Liir]] from the ''VideoGame/SwordOfTheStars'' games combine aspects from various sea creatures. They look mostly like dolphins, but also have patches of downy fur like seals, tentacles on their snouts like cephalopods, hermaphrodism like many sea invertebrates, and like lobsters they keep growing and growing until [[SquareCubeLaw their bodies get too big to be sustainable]] [[spoiler:except for the [[TheSociopath Suul'Ka]], [[ImmortalityImmorality who said "fuck that" and became]] {{Eldritch Abomination}}s instead.]]
* In ''VideoGame/{{Syberia}}'', youki have characteristics of seals, bears, and dogs.
* The Sea Creatures of ''VideoGame/TalesOfMonkeyIsland Chapter 2: The Siege of Spinner Cay''. They have the head of a sea horse, the body and shell of a turtle, the fins and flippers of a fish, and the large bulb antenna of an angler fish. [[HellIsThatNoise And their calls are... kind of weird]].
* ''VideoGame/TalesSeries'':
** In ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'', we have rappigs: pigs with soft pink fur and rabbit ears. [[BunnyEarsLawyer Emperor Peony]] keeps several as pets (and apparently also gives them as gifts to people he likes, at least according to one sidequest). They appear to be the size of real-life pigs in the game, but TheAnimeOfTheGame shows them being closer to the size of a small dog.
** ''VideoGame/TalesOfXillia'' clarifies this. Rappigs are biologically rabbits that look like pigs, and introduces a new species, Piggits, which are biologically pigs that look like rabbits. Naturally, due to a mix of convergent evolution and using the same character model, they look exactly the same.
* Longma from ''VideoGame/ThemsFightinHerds'' are horse/dragon hybrids. Tianhuo looks like a scaley horse with a firey mane.
* Some animals in ''VideoGame/UncleAlbertsAdventures'' turn into hybrids when you use the transformation potion on them.
** The frogen is a dragon/frog hybrid. It looks like an orange frog with dragon wings and a dragon tail.
** The spider/snail hybrid looks like a spider with a snail shell in place of the abdomen.
** The blue scorpion is described as a scorpion/frog hybrid by the laboratory scan.
** The yellow ladybug is described as a ladybug/stag beetle hybrid by the laboratory scan.
** The spotted stag beetle is a stag beetle/ladybug hybrid which looks like a stag beetle whose back is red with black dots.
** It's possible to turn Kipling the parrot into a parrot/frog hybrid. He looks exactly like a frog, but he retains his ability to talk.
* The [[PlanetOfSteves Temmies]] from ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' are strange, catlike creatures that also appear to have floppy dog ears.
* In ''VideoGame/VivaPinata: Trouble in Paradise'', depending on which bones you tinker, the Choclodocus can have the head of a ''Triceratops'', ''Brontosaurus'', or ''Stegosaurus'', as well as a tail that doesn't fit any of them.
* ''VideoGame/{{Warcraft}}'' games contain many mythological mix and match critters, such as gryphons, hippogryphs and chimaeras. Then there are wyverns, which are lions with batlike wings and scorpion tails (The "wyvern" name is odd since these beings are clearly ''manticores''), magnataurs (essentially a wooly mammoth centaur) and zhevras(zebras with a small horn on their forehead). There's also creatures that look mostly like real-world ones but with few parts added, like giraffes with gazelle-style horns and crocolisks (6-legged crocodiles).
* ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'':
** ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' includes Moonkin, which are owlbears, as well. Druid characters are shapeshifters, and if one takes the offensive spellcasting talents, you can change into one.
** ''[=WoW=]'' also has the wolpertinger. It has the body, head, feet, and tail of a hare... and fangs, wings, and antlers. They can also only be seen when ''[[MushroomSamba drunk]]''...
* The [[HelpfulMook Dragonturtles]] from the ''VideoGame/WonderlandAdventures'' games, which are [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin turtles with dragon horns]].
* ''VideoGame/YokusIslandExpress'': Kickback, your sidekick, has a body like a pufferfish, but flowing fins like a goldfish. [[spoiler:And during his reveal as the BigBad, [[OneWingedAngel he takes on gigantic talons and attributes from still other creatures]]]].
* Zera from ''VideoGame/ZeraMythsAwaken'' is supposed to look like a mix of an axolotl and a bat.
