The fact Azazel's hair starts to turn gray as a result of her gradually becoming a FallenAngel implies white hair is an inherently demonic attribute. [[spoiler:The events of the ''Examtaker'' DLC later confirm this, as Azazel finally has fallen from grace and become a demon, with her hair turning white to go along with it.]]
* ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublicIITheSithLords'' had Jedi Master Atris has white hair despite being human.
* Mages in ''VideoGame/{{Kritika}}'' have default white hair.
* Lady Calista in ''VideoGame/TheLastStory''. White hair, and a powerful magic user -- in fact, her magic is ''so'' powerful, it can temporarily make people invincible! But she's not the only one -- many magic users in ''The Last Story'' have pale or silvery hair (from party member Yurick, who has silvery hair, to the random NPC magicians, who have shocking white hair), so it seems to be implied that magic frequently has that effect on hair.
* Riven in ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'' has white hair. Considering her story involves her turning her back on her home city after seeing them abandon their principles of [[TheSocialDarwinist social Darwinism]], she's probably closer to the wise-beyond-her-years variant than anything else.
* The [[{{Ninja}} Sheikah]] tribe of ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' are eternally dedicated to guarding the Royal Family of Hyrule and have various mystical powers to help them do so; they also all have white hair, which may seem like an example of this trope but is not, since they got their hair-color by way of the PlanetOfCopyhats effect. Zelda's personal maid Impa was originally portrayed as an old lady in the instruction manuals of the NES games. When she was portrayed in-game for the first time in ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]'' and first stated to be a member of the Sheikah tribe, she looked much younger but still had the white hair. Come ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild Breath of the Wild]]'', the first game to portray other Sheikah besides Impa, and almost the whole tribe has white hair, even the toddlers; of the mere two Sheikah who have other hair colors, one has the blond hair of his [[MixedAncestry Hylian mother]] instead.
* Iris in ''VideoGame/LufiaCurseOfTheSinistrals''. [[spoiler:She retains it in her true form as Erim.]]
* Lucia from ''VideoGame/LuminousArc'' has white hair and is a witch that specializes in [[LightEmUp light magic]].
* ''Franchise/MortalKombat''
** Raiden a Thunder God and the BigGood of the series. Initially he had brown hair but was depicted as having white hair in the [[Film/MortalKombat movie]]. The games have depicted Raiden as having white hair since VideoGame/MortalKombatDeadlyAlliance.
** Fujin the Earth God of Wind who debuted in VideoGame/MortalKombat4 has white hair.
** Smoke's hair is revealed to be this in VideoGame/MortalKombat9. [[spoiler:He became an Enenra, a creature of smoke, after he was sacrificed by a demon-worshiping cult who wanted power. Instead, Smoke, then known as Tomas Vrbada, used his new powers to kill his murderers.]]
* Noire and Uni from ''VideoGame/{{Neptunia}}'', at least when they activate [[SuperMode HDD]].
* In ''VideoGame/NeverwinterNights'' this trope is rather common among female Aasimar and other celestials in Faerun. The half-celestials Melissa from the Trials of the Academy module and Kaelyn the Dove from ''VideoGame/NeverwinterNights2 Mask of the Betrayer'' both also have white hair.
* Yonah and Kainé from ''VideoGame/NieR'' are white haired [[spoiler:{{artificial human}}s.]]
* ''VideoGame/NightsOfAzure'' has the main character Arnice, who is a white-haired half-demon.
* Gwendolyn from ''VideoGame/OdinSphere'' has white hair. Seems to be a common trait for Valkyries.
* [[LongHairedPrettyBoy Abe no Seimei]], the protagonist of ''[[VideoGame/{{Onmyoji}} Onmyōji]]''. Being [[MagicByAnyOtherName basically a wizard]] and having long white locks certainly qualifies.
** Many {{Youkai}} characters also have white hair, for instance [[AnIcePerson Yuki-onna]] (default skin), [[WhiteHairBlackHeart Yōko]], Shiromujō and Ibaraki-dōji.
** [[MageMarksman Hiromasa]] also has white hair in one of his [[CharacterCustomization skins]].
* Orta, the titular heroine of ''[[VideoGame/PanzerDragoon Panzer Dragoon Orta]]'' has white hair [[spoiler:since she's half-Drone and parents are Azel and Edge from ''Panzer Dragoon Saga'']].
* [[spoiler:Izanami]] from ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'' has gray hair. Considering she looks essentially like a [[GenderFlip Gender-flipped version]] of the PC, it's not surprising.
* All velvet rooms attendant starting from ''VideoGame/{{Persona 3}}'' have white hair (except Margaret in the Persona 4 Anime) and they are all really powerful, [[spoiler: serving as [[Main/BonusBoss secret bosses]], who also happen to be [[AwesomeBosses/VideoGames the strongest bosses in the game]]]]
* ''VideoGame/RuinaFairyTaleOfTheForgottenRuins'': While the player can choose the protagonist's mugshot, they will always be albino. [[spoiler:This is because they're descended from a clan of humanoid demons specifically bred to be Titus I's new vessel, all of whom are albino.]]
* [[AliceAllusion Alice]] Elliot from ''VideoGame/ShadowHearts'' is a platinum blonde haired exorcist that specializes in [[LightEmUp light magic]] and healing.
* ''VideoGame/SoulSeries'':
** [[TheBaroness Ivy Valentine]] has silver hair due to her father being cursed with the Soul Edge and his corruption being transferred to her. Its shown that even as a child, she always had this hair color and due to her Malfestation, she becomes TheAgeless.
** Viola is a LadyOfBlackMagic with white curled hair. Unlike Ivy, it's unclear what is behind this condition since Viola suffers from amnesia, but what is clear is that she has magical powers to manipulate her orb in combat.
* Sierra Mikain from ''VideoGame/SuikodenII'' fits every aspect of this trope to a T, from the beautiful white hair to the mysterious personality.
* ''VideoGame/TalesSeries'':
** Raine Sage of ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'' like her little brother is a white haired elf ([[spoiler:she's really half elf]]).
** [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Grune]] in ''VideoGame/TalesOfLegendia'' has white hair. [[spoiler:She's later revealed to be a goddess.]]
** [[spoiler:Musee Maxwell]] in ''VideoGame/TalesOfXillia'' has white hair and [[SupernaturalGoldEyes gold eyes]] to boot.
** Several of the Seraphim in ''VideoGame/TalesOfZestiria'', particularly Mikleo.
* Lilette Einmell from ''VideoGame/TalesOfHetalia'' has white hair, signaling she is a demon. In fact, this series runs on this trope, considering ''all'' demons have white hair.
* ''Franchise/TouhouProject'' has several such characters. Eirin Yagokoro and Fujiwara no Mokou have white hair and are probably the result of being immortal, though that raises the question of why Kaguya Houraisan has black hair. Sakuya Izayoi, despite supposedly being a normal human, has silver hair as well, which has lead many fans to speculate that she may not, in fact, be human at all. Letty Whiterock is a yuki-onna. Youmu Konpaku is a silver haired half-ghost (we don't know how that works either), and a straight up albino if you go by the fighting games' art. Momiji Inubashiri is a white wolf tengu. Then there's all the characters with very pale but still coloured hair...
* This seems to be at play with ''VideoGame/UncommonTime'''s Altair. He's regarded as one of the greatest magicians to ever live, and he has silver hair. There may also be some of this going on with Aubrey, your white-haired SquishyWizard.
* ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles'' has Selvaria Bles, with long white hair, a general at the ripe old age of 22. [[spoiler:Alicia]]'s hair goes white only when she's "powered up", oddly, but it wouldn't be much of a surprise otherwise. Edy Nelson also has white hair, but she's normal.
** Aliasse from ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChroniclesII''. Silver hair and red eyes seems to be the mark of a Valkyria, either all the time or when a girl turns into one.
** Riela from ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChroniclesIII'' is a strange case; her normal hair is red at the top and turns silver midway, but when she goes into Valkyria form, her hair become entirely silver.
* Lenneth in ''VideoGame/ValkyrieProfile'' is a silver haired {{Valkyrie|s}}.
* Several Mystics (deities) introduced in the ''VideoGame/WarriorsOrochi'' series have white hair. The second game gives us Nu Wa and Taigong Wang, while the third has Shennong and Susano'o.
* Avril Vent Fleur from ''VideoGame/WildARMs5'' has silver hair, as part of her persona of MysteriousWaif.
* In ''Franchise/TheWitcher'' Geralt has white hair that has earned him the epithet "The White Wolf". His hair color is especially odd because while witchers ''are'' supernatural its not normal for them to have white hair. Instead it is the mark of his being especially amenable to the witcher mutagens.
** By the time of ''VideoGame/TheWitcher3WildHunt'' his adoptive daughter Ciri, who possesses magical ability that are strange even in her world such as the ability to move between worlds, also has developed white/ashen hair despite still being a young woman.
* ''VideoGame/AWitchsTale'' has Anne, the silver haired little girl whom Liddell befriends [[spoiler:in the second playthrough]]. Unfortunately, she [[spoiler:[[FaceHeelTurn grows up to become]] [[BigBad the Eld Witch]].]]
* Psi Operatives in ''VideoGame/XCOM2'' get white hair and purple eyes upon being trained.
