* ''VideoGame/Borderlands2'' has the ''Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep'' DLC, which is filled to the brim with D&D references (plus other fantasy {{Shout Out}}s). The whole premise of the game even has Tina (as the GameMaster) and the original Vault Hunters play "Bunkers and Badasses", [[spoiler:minus Roland, who is dead]].
*''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyI'''s bestiary is drawn almost entirely from classic ''[=DnD=]'', to the point that the Japanese version featured a Beholder as the strongest monster in the Ice Cavern (and you could find even stronger Death Beholders in the final dungeon). Given how litigious TSR was/is known to be, the Beholder was hastily editted into a creature currently called the Evil Eye (and Death Eye) when the game was localized. Other monsters such as Piscodemons and Otyughs were able to skate by with mere renames (Wizards and Ochus, respectively). The game also used the same VancianMagic system and required rest to restore a mage's spell pool. Even Bahamut owes his presence to ''[=DnD=]''.

* ''Series/StrangerThings'': D&D games appear in a few episodes, and the concept of alternate dimensions is explained through the terminology of D&D, with the monster of the first season being named after Demogorgon, Prince of Demons, due to the D&D Demogorgon's mini being used to explain the creature. Similarly, the Mindflayer in Season 2 is named as such due to being a Lovecraftian being, and its ability to mentally control its victims.
