8	{{Cute Monster Girl}}s in video games.
9	----
10
11	* A ''lot'' of the user generated prompts in ''VideoGame/AIDungeon2'' involve cute monster girls. [[RuleThirtyFour Frequently in less than wholesome contexts.]]
12	* ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'':
13	** Most [[OurAngelsAreDifferent angels]] in both games range from looking fairly humanoid to just downright ''weird.'' Then there are the Joys, which are shaped like buxom women in helmets with shape-changing weapons in the place of hands and feet and are pretty much naked aside from a gold chain worn like a thong. They are a form of {{Elite Mook\|s}} that apparently transcended having one definite physical form, and they are intentionally mimicking the deliberate MsFanservice heroine since they're supposed to be mirror-enemies to her.
14	** [[OurDemonsAreDifferent Demons]] are usually either giant beasts (mostly seen with Bayonetta's summons in both games) or some oddly-"robotic" creatures in contrast with the "marble statue" appearance of the angels (mostly seen with the enemies in the sequel). Compared to them, the demons Bayonetta and Jeanne's pacts are with look more humanoid: they're large, have unusual skin tones, but still appear as attractive women. Then there's Alraune, who just resembles a gray-skinned woman in a flower-themed dress and some sort of large helmet obscuring her upper head.
15	* There are three female Splicer bodytypes in ''VideoGame/BioShock'': Ladysmith, Rosebud, and Baby Jane. ''All'' male Splicers are uniformly hideous, warped and disfigured by overuse of ADAM. As for the females, there are two aversions and a straight example. The aversions are Ladysmith (an older woman in fancy clothes, her face skeletal and distorted) and Rosebud (modeled after Rosie the Riveter, but with a garish, disgusting tumor growing out of her forehead). Baby Jane, meanwhile, hasn't physically mutated at all -- her only modifications are some scars and makeup. Sadly, though, ADAM has had [[AxCrazy its usual effects]] on her ''mind''...
16	* ''VideoGame/{{Boktai}}'':
17	** Sabata, being a HalfHumanHybrid like his brother Django, was infused with dark matter which makes his non-human attributes stand out. Unlike his brother who looks entirely human (at least until he becomes a vampire, see below), Sabata has purple hair, odd facial markings, bright red eyes, and fangs and is quite attractive in spite of (or because of) it.
18	** Black Django -- the hero's vampiric form -- has pointed ears, fangs, blue skin, and bat wings... making him a Cute Monster ''Boy''.
19	** A number of the Immortals are quite attractive as well. If we're counting human forms Duneyyr and Dvalinn are quite good looking until they morph into a giant moth and octopus, respectively. Durathor is gorgeous even ''in'' her monstrous form being a PlantPerson with spiked vines for arms, and Carmilla's monstrous form is a GorgeousGorgon through and through. On the males' side, the Count has glowing red eyes and blue skin but is [[{{Hunk}} built like a space shuttle]] and [[BadassInANiceSuit a sharp dresser]], and Ratatosk is a {{Bishonen}} with blue skin who's pretty easy on the eyes as well.
20	* ''VideoGame/BrawlStars'':
21	** Emz is a pretty teenage mummy zombie, helped by the fact her face and body are only slightly covered by her bandages. She's definitely got a more young, hip, and attractive look compared to her male comrades [[OurVampiresAreDifferent Mortis]] and {{Frank\|ensteinsMonster}}.
22	** Willow is a cute {{fish\|People}}-like SwampMonster, though she actually HatesBeingCalledCute.
23	* Quite a few characters from the ''Franchise/BreathOfFire'' series:
24	** Most notably Deis from [[VideoGame/BreathOfFireI the first game]], Katt from [[VideoGame/BreathOfFireII the second game]], Momo from [[VideoGame/BreathOfFireIII the third game]] and Ursula from [[VideoGame/BreathOfFireIV the fourth game]]. Male members of the Blacksmith Clan are hulking minotaur-like strongmen, yet their women look like ordinary humans with horns. Although apparently [[MusclesAreMeaningless the women are just as strong, despite this]]...
25	** The harpies that attack Ryu and Bow in ''VideoGame/BreathOfFireII'' are apparently quite attractive, at least as far as one can tell from the pixelated graphics, and they in turn find Ryu to be quite attractive as well. Unfortunately this just makes them want to eat him, and they even waste a turn ''[[EnemyCivilWar attacking each other]]'' bickering over it since they'd much rather eat Ryu than the anthropomorphic dog.
26	* Many of the monsters in the ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}'' games, such as the Succubus, and the Perspherone, a demonic ''[[{{Meido}} maid]]'' who happens to know Kung-Fu. Laura, the vampire child from ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaLordsOfShadow'', especially in the ''Reverie'' DLC, where she and Gabriel form a strong bond.
27	* [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos Cthylla]] in ''VideoGame/ChaosCode'', if one can look past her shark-like dentition and penchant for blowing venomous ink in her opponents' faces.
28	* Genovefa in ''VideoGame/ChildOfLight'' is a [[FishPeople Fish Person]] with green skin and small fin-like protrusions spouting from her ears and tail. Contrast with Robert (a [[RatMen bipedal mouse]]), Oengus (a hulking armor-clad bear-goat-thing), and Golem (a big jagged rock {{Golem}}).
29	* Female vampires, demonesses, cyborg girls, and catgirls are very common in the ''[[VideoGame/CityOfHeroes City of Heroes/City of Villains]]'' games. The character creator includes options such as horns, pointy ears, tails, hooved/clawed feet, etc. Even one of the NPC heroines is a catgirl. Also applies to NPC enemies. Most of the various demons the you can fight are grotesque monsters, except for the succubi.
30	* ''VideoGame/CoffeeTalk'' takes place in a FantasyKitchenSink version of Seattle, and all of the female characters (apart from the lone human, Freya) qualify as this in some way or another. Among the cast, there's [[NiceGirl Lua]] the [[SuccubiAndIncubi succubus]], [[IdolSinger Rachel]] the ''[[CatGirl nekomimi]]'', [[BespectacledCutie Aqua]] the [[OurMermaidsAreDifferent mermaid]], and [[AmazonianBeauty Myrtle]] the [[OurOrcsAreDifferent half-orc]].
31	* ''VideoGame/CorruptionOfLaetitia'': The factions the player can recruit include slimes (the stronger of which look like humanoid girls), Girtablilu, Harpies, and Alraune. The latter three groups have [[OneGenderRace only girls]].
32	* Cala Maria in ''VideoGame/{{Cuphead}}'' is a [[GiantWoman gigantic]] [[OurMermaidsAreDifferent mermaid]] with octopus as hair that looks very adorable... And then she turns into a gorgon halfway through your boss-fight. She still qualifies as a GorgeousGorgon since, while she doesn't look as cute as before, she is far from horrifying.
33	* The rather grotesque-looking [[OurSirensAreDifferent siren]] boss in ''VideoGame/DarkestDungeon'' will appear as a naked and beautiful monster girl when she enthralls a party member, but this trope is decidedly very much averted otherwise.
34	* ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'' has a few of these, most notably Priscilla the Crossbreed, a 20 foot tall giant {{Mystical White Hair}}ed girl who happens to be half dragon. Quelaag and her [[NoNameGiven sister]] are beautiful women with horrible lava spiders for lower bodies.
35	* In ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}'', any female character that's not Baby Bonnie Hood ([[SuccubiAndIncubi Morrigan, Lilith]], [[CatGirl Felicia]], [[BeePeople Q-Bee]]) qualifies, but the winner is Hsien-Ko, a ChineseVampire. Q-Bee is probably the most horrible, as while her race act like normal bees, they've developed one evolutionary trait to help them hunt their prey: their eyes. Those gigantic bulbs on her head? ''Those are her real eyes''. The ones on the front of her face are there to trick people into thinking she's a dimwitted chick. This is why her fighting pose is animated so her head looks like it's pointing down, her actual eyes are completely focused on her prey.
36	* ''[[VideoGame/DarkSun Dark Sun: Shattered Lands]]'' has a cute portrait of a Tari (rat) girl, who you need to rescue in an early sidequest.
37	* ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive'': Ayane's signature burning red eyes and lavender hair color are telltale signs of having inherited Raidou's cursed blood at birth. Taken further in ''Dead or Alive 5: Last Round'', where she gets a succubus costume as one of her Halloween outfits.
38	* ''VideoGame/DemonsSouls'' has The Fool's Idol, which looks like a pretty doll with four arms. While this can make her look cute, it also emphasises her unnatural nature.
39	* ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'':
40	** Most monsters are male, with the most obvious exceptions being the [[SuccubiAndIncubi Succubus]] and the [[CatGirl Nekomata]], which are [[OneGenderRace all female]].
41	** The "standard" demon race of the Netherworld have females of several different body types, like valkyries, healers and magic knights (all of them cute).
42	** ''Disgaea 2'' introduces the Flora Beast (something similar to a Nymph). Ironically enough, [[DudeLooksLikeALady this example is inverted]].
43	** [[VideoGame/Disgaea3AbsenceOfJustice Raspberyl]] is a FunSize Cute Monster Girl.
44	** ''VideoGame/{{Disgaea 4\| A Promise Unforgotten}}'' has Desco, the Netherworld's most adorable EldritchAbomination.
45	** ''VideoGame/DisgaeaD2ABrighterDarkness'' introduced Sea Angels, with Rainier being a much bustier version.
46	** ''VideoGame/Disgaea5AllianceOfVengeance'' pulls a three-fer: for the generic units, you can obtain Fairies and Nine-Tailed Foxes, with Izuna being a storyline variant. As far as party members go, there is Usalia, a were-rabbit demon.
47	** ''VideoGame/Disgaea6DefianceOfDestiny'' introduces Evileyes, a bovine monster unit with huge horns and equally huge chests, and they tend to have docile, ShrinkingViolet personalities. They get their name from the magical eyes they have on their palms.
48	* In ''VideoGame/DivinityDragonCommander'', two of the four princesses you can marry in the game fit this trope:
49	** The lizard princess [[IceQueen Camilla]] who looks distinctly [[https://adriankoltun014.files.wordpress.com/2014/09/1920x1200_lizard.jpg human-like]] in contrast to other lizard characters and is rather [[NonMammalMammaries busty and curvy]].
50	** The undead princess [[ShrinkingViolet Ophelia]] is initially a walking skeleton, but if you pursue a romance with her, she will have her soul transferred to a new body of your choice: either a human female, a vampire or a flesh golem, and all of them are topless with [[GodivaHair her hair covering her breasts]].
51	* ''Downfall'', a rather hefty GameMod for ''VideoGame/SlayTheSpire'', features unlockable MoeAnthropomorphism costumes for The Guardian, The Snecko, The Slimeboss, and the Hexaghost. [[note]]There's also a MoeAnthropomorphism costume of The Champ, but The Champ is a BadassNormal to begin with, so it doesn't count.[[/note]]
52	* In ''VideoGame/DragonBallOnline'' and ''VideoGame/DragonBallXenoverse'', female Majins look more like {{Distaff Counterpart}}s to Super Buu: they are slimmer, have feminine features, and more humanoid faces [[BizarreSexualDimorphism compared to the males of their race, who are large and rotund with more cartoonish faces]]. Justified in-universe as Majin Buu having created the first female Majin after being inspired by a dirty book.
53	* ''VideoGame/DragonsCrown'' has harpies and vampires, who look cute but are lethal predators who feed on human victims, as well as a friendly mermaid and fairy.
54	* ''VideoGame/DragonFable'' has ice and water elves, which have sharp, Snape-y faces for the males. Granted, we only see male ice elves, but female water elves are spotted here and there. Unlike the males, they have the same faces as humans, aside from their coral-like horns. (Interestingly enough, wind, wood and dark elves all have human-like faces, though all of them have glowing eyes.)
55	* ''Franchise/DragonQuest'' has the [[https://dragonquest.fandom.com/wiki/Succubat Succubat]] class of monsters which weaponize this. They attack by showing off their breasts and trying to lure males off with them. They're utterly adorable, ''especially'' the [[https://dragonquest.fandom.com/wiki/Vampire_succubat Vampire Succubats]] that have the most "human" complexion out of all of them.
56	* The Shura in ''VideoGame/DreamOfMirrorOnline'' fit -- the males are big hulking walls of flesh, with short, fleshy tails, and a (fleshy) horn on their forehead. The females are {{cat girl}}s.
57	* ''VideoGame/EarthwormJim'': Jim's girlfriend, Princess What's-Her-Name, who is big-eyed, wasp-waisted (and an insect, haha), and extremely well proportioned. However, she's considered hideously deformed on her homeworld. Her sister, [[OverlyLongName Queen Pulsating, Bloated, Festering, Sweaty, Pus-Filled, Malformed Slug-For-A-Butt]], who looks something like a giant termite queen, is the pinnacle of beauty to her people.
58	* ''VideoGame/EasternExorcist'', with it's {{wuxia}}-fantasy setting, have cute ''hulijing'' girls throughout the story. From Xiaoyu, who looks like a spunky, adorable teenage girl ([[LittleBitBeastly save for her fox-ears]]) to Xiahou-xue, one of the two player-characters, who's a half-''hulijing'' with well-defined facial features.
59	* ''VideoGame/ExtrapowerAttackOfDarkforce'' has cute lobster and cute octopus girls in the undersea realm of Deep Heaven. The demon girls Nemuri and Rem in ''Videogame/ExtrapowerStarResistance'' and devil Coma in ''VideoGame/ExtrapowerGiantFist'' also count.
60	* Many enemies in ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' play this straight, avert or subvert this. The exact specifications vary from game to game, ranging from monsters with female body parts to highly-feminine monsters to monsters that look exactly like humans with maybe one or two monster features. For example, the recurring Lamia enemies are usually snakes with female torsos and faces, can serve as temptresses such as the Lamia Queen from ''II'', and in ''IV'' have their rears showing through their snake skin. Since a full analysis is unfeasible, this section will single out specific examples.
61	** Recurring summon Shiva is often depicted as a graceful and well-formed female with a pretty face with her body covered by nothing but ribbons or growths of ice. She also has blue skin and lips, due to being AnIcePerson, and often has other body features to betray her monstrous nature, although she is more of a goddess in most games.
62	** Ditto for Siren, though she doesn't appear in as many games. Her ''[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII FF8]]'' incarnation is the straightest example. She is a beautiful woman with strategically placed feathers on her body, and bird wings coming out of her head.
63	** Terra of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'' is a [[HalfHumanHybrid half-human and half-Esper]], and was pointedly ''not'' this in her original game, her Esper form was emphasized to be feral and monstrous and it terrified people - not that this would stop some fans from finding her attractive. Then ''[[VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy Dissidia]]'' came along and [[http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dissidia_Tina_Branford_ex.png look at her now]]. While that is [[http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/File:FF6EsperTerraSprites.PNG a valid interpretation of her in-game sprites from FF6]], bear in mind that [[http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/File:Terra_Esper.jpg this]] was the original character design. The fanservice carried back to the smartphone and Steam ports - [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/a/a7/Terra_esper_menu_portrait.gif this]] was her original character portrait in her Esper form, while [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/3/33/FFVI_Terra_Esper_Menu_iOS.png this]] is her smartphone portrait, and [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/6/6f/FF6_iOS_Terra_Esper_Sprites.png her sprite]] is much more shapely than before.
64	** [[https://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/b/bc/VIICC_Jenova.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130901084122 Jenova]] from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' is a subversion. At first glance, she appears to be an attractive blue skinned woman, but a closer inspection reveals hideous aspects such as an eye for a nipple, a bizarre umbilical cord leading to an external heart like organ and a corpse like appearance.
65	** The Cloud of Darkness, originally from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIII'' and appearing in both ''[[VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy Dissidia]]'' and ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV'', is a MadeOfEvil EldritchAbomination who wants to engulf the world in darkness and is an eternal entity unable to ever be destroyed, only defeated and put to sleep until it rises again. Despite this it chooses to appear as a shapely female in the games are as follows: ''[[http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/b/b7/FF3NES-CloudOfDarkness2.gif FF3]]'' ''[[http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/6/6f/Cloud_of_Darkness_iOS.png FF3DS]]'' ''[[http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101216070617/finalfantasy/images/1/19/Cloud_of_darkness.png Dissidia]]'' ''[[http://www.ffxivinfo.com/images/screenshots/ffxiv-2258.jpg FFXIV]]''. The games state that as a force of nature ''it'' [[YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm has no true form]] and has [[NoBiologicalSex no gender]]. The reason for this in FFIII and FFXIV seems to be to paradoxically emphasise its bizarre eldritch nature, with XIV in particular being particularly monstrous.
66	** The Nymphs from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIX''. They have completely humanoid (and scantily clad) bodies, simply with what looks like grass and leaves for hair. The villainous ones have purple skin while the good ones have green skin but they're still pretty hot.
67	** The Vieras and the Grias from games set in Ivalice. The Viera are tall, ebony-skinned warrior women with bunny ears and {{Stripperiffic}} clothing, and the Gria are incredibly cute female dragon-like humanoids with wings and horns. The [[PigMan Seeq]] avert this: the few female Seeq [=NPCs=] look almost identical to male Seeq.
68	** The two female Espers in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII''. Shemhazai's face is not visible, but she does have a scantily clad fanservice-y body. Ultima is also quite attractive if one ignores her teal skin.
69	** The females of the dragon-like Au Ra race in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV'' possess horns in place of ears, tails, and patches of scales scattered about their otherwise human-looking bodies. Their petite builds push them more towards the "cute" side of the attractiveness spectrum, being the smallest of all the races (Aside from the [[LittlePeople Lalafell]]), but their males are [[HugeGuyTinyGirl quite the opposite]].
70	* ''Franchise/FireEmblem'':
71	** In ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon]]'', most of the Dragon shapeshifters known as Manaketes are unattractive [[ElderlyImmortal Old Men]] with {{Fangs\|AreEvil}}, inhuman skintone, Claws, and [[WingedHumanoid leathery Wings]]. However one of the playable Manaketes, Tiki, merely looks like a little girl with PointyEars, sometimes with feathery wings. Xane, a Manakete Male, who lost his dragon form, also fits as a rare aversion as he looks like an ordinary human {{Bishonen}}, being one of the only Male Manaketes to be young or attractive.
72	** Half Manakete Siblings Ninian and Nils in ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBlazingBlade Blazing Blade]]''; Ninian is beautiful and ethereal, while Nils fits the "cute child growing into a handsome young man" role.
73	** While the [[LittleBitBeastly Laguz]] females in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance'' and ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemRadiantDawn Radiant Dawn]]'' are quite attractive, the males [[YouSexyBeast are just as commonly attractive as well]].
74	** The aforementioned Tiki returns in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'', and is joined by fellow Manakete and {{expy}} of her past self, Nowi, as well as Nowi's daughter Nah, and Morgan if the male Avatar marries any of the three. The game also introduced Taguel, [[SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute which are heavily based on the beast Laguz]]. Panne, the first playable Taguel, fits this, and so does Morgan if a male Avatar marries Panne. Yarne is a Cute Monster Boy, and so is Morgan if a female Avatar marries him. Manakete Morgan, however, can only be female, fitting this trope. The only Male Dragon tribe member in the game, Grima, is monstrous, and never assumes a humanoid form.
75	** Five characters fall under this trope in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemFates''. The first and second of which are the playable Avatar (especially if female) and Kana (especially if female, which requires the Avatar to be Male), similar to the manakete in that they are half dragon. Another dragon named Lilith appears. The three of them look [[OurDragonsAreDifferent very different]] from how usual dragons do. The remaining two are [[AsianFoxSpirit Selkie]] and [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent Velouria]] (along with their fathers), each exclusive to Hoshido and Nohr (respectively) and both being available in the third path.
76	* ''VideoGame/FishingVacation'': Horribly subverted with [[spoiler:Sedna, an ocean goddess from Inuit mythology]], who looks more like a WickedWitch with her messy hair, noseless face, wide wrinkled SlasherSmile, thin clawed fingers and sunken, glowing eyes. Makes one wonder if your friend's uncle really fell in love with her to begin with, or if she put him under a spell.
77	* Played straight in ''[[VideoGame/GearsOfWar Gears of War 2]]'' to the surprise of everyone (including Delta squad, Cole saying: [[LampshadeHanging "I thought she was supposed to be butt ugly."]]), with [[spoiler:the Locust Queen]], who appears almost exactly like a human woman (albeit wearing a squid on her back and a kinda grey skin tone). It turns out [[spoiler:Myrrah actually ''is'' a mutated human]].
78	* ''VideoGame/GemsOfWar'': [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gems_of_war_drifting_sands.jpg The Djinn]] who looks like a human female.
79	* ''VideoGame/GoldenSun'':
80	** The Fire Clan are mostly human-looking with some draconic traits, such as scales, [[AmazingTechnicolorPopulation colorful skin]], equally colorful hair, and PointyEars. But then there's Karst, who pairs all of that with the appearance of a cute teenager and a [[MsFanservice black leather micromini]].
81	** ''VideoGame/GoldenSunDarkDawn'''s beastmen are all quite furry and a bit more animalistic than your average CatGirl. And then there's Sveta, who is ''very'' human-looking, not readily identifiable as anything but "furry" (and her fur is skin-tone!), and very {{moe}}. Compare her with her brother, who has a very distinct muzzle (and blue fur, though beastman colors run the gamut). She can enter a more beastly form, which is largely indistinguishable from the werewolf/wolfman monsters (it's also a bit of a GameBreaker).
82	* ''VideoGame/{{Grandia}}'':
83	** From the original ''VideoGame/Grandia1'', a character named Milda joins your team. She's an older (beast)woman who, though not necessarily cute, has curves in all the right places and is marred only by having horns, sharp teeth, and a tufted tail. Eventually you reach the village where her tribe lives and get to see the men-- all of whom are BIPEDAL COWS.
84	** In ''VideoGame/GrandiaII'', a large, ugly, ''male'' beastman named Marag joins your party early on. This isn't so bad until you visit his village later in the game and find out that, apparently, the rest of his species is comprised of cute and/or hot {{Cat Girl}}s. Also, if Tio and the remains of her android sisters are any indication, [[GodOfEvil Valmar]] apparently designed his minions to look like Cute Monster Girls wearing vaguely bee-themed clothes.
85	* Elites (Alien-name Sangheili) from ''Franchise/{{Halo}}'' are lanky weird looking brown aliens with mandibles, so naturally the females look the same? '''[[https://img00.deviantart.net/18e4/i/2012/364/c/e/female_sangheili_by_a_zeldafan95-d5ppqev.jpg Nope]]'''.
86	* ''VideoGame/HearthstoneHeroesOfWarcraft'', being a spin-off to ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'', follows in its parent's tradition of depicting the various female non-humans in its art as cute if not outright sexually attractive. Whilst there are some exceptions (female Worgens like [[https://hearthstone.gamepedia.com/Swift_Messenger Swift Messenger]] are usually only distinguishable by TertiarySexualCharacteristics), in general, the ladies of Hearthstone tend to be cute, curvy, or otherwise visually appealing to straight men. Some of the more notable examples include the Witchwood Piper (a female satyr), the [[{{Pun}} Gnomeferatu]] (a vampire gnome), and... well, pretty much any female orc or troll.
87	* The sharply-dressed demon girls of ''{{VideoGame/Helltaker}}'' (as well as the uniformed Angels) are quite attractive, while the male demons all have a rather skeletal, if hunk-shaped, appearance.
88	* ''The VideoGame/HouseOfTheDead EX'' has Zobiko, a Cute Zombie Girl. She's also one of the main characters.
89	* ''VideoGame/KhimeraDestroyAllMonsterGirls'' is all about this, as one can understand from the title. The protagonist is one of the cutest chimeras ever.
90	* ''VideoGame/KidIcarus'':
91	** ''VideoGame/KidIcarus1986'':
92	*** Medusa is a cyclops stone head in a wall, but after being damaged enough she turns into a human sized attractive Medusa (her original form according to the story) right before dying. She's even more of this in ''VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising'' for 3DS (just [[http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100616092934/nintendo/en/images/thumb/1/18/Medusa_Uprising.png/424px-Medusa_Uprising.png look at her]]). Once she's nearly dead, though, she shows her ''true'' face, which looks more like her NES incarnation.
93	*** The Syren enemy, who has full frontal NES nudity. The manual warns not to be caught unaware by her female form, as she is pure evil.
94	** ''VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising'': The [[ChestMonster Mimicutie]] is a parody of this. Instead of the classic hinged lid with MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily, they stand up on shapely legs and start [[KickChick kicking]].
95	* In ''VideoGame/KingsQuestVIIThePrincelessBride'', princess Rosella is transformed into a troll but retains some of her beauty, making her the cutest troll girl around.
96	* ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'' has [[https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Juhani Juhani]], a CatGirl who looks... [[BizarreSexualDimorphism very different]] from [[https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Cathar_(species) every other Cathar]] in all of ''Franchise/StarWars''. {{Handwave}}d later by making Juhani a member of a rare Cathar subspecies, yet the more common version of a female Cathar [[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/File:Sylvarcathar.jpg still look much nicer than the hulking tiger-men that are the males]].
97	* [[GorgeousGorgon Tiamat]] from ''VideoGame/LaMulana''. Then she starts [[ThatOneBoss kicking your ass]], and you somehow stop finding her cute. Then you start kicking ''her'' ass, and she gets [[GameFace downright ugly]]. (In the PC version anyway; in the Wii version all she gets is a scowl.)
98	* In ''VideoGame/LegacyOfTheWizard'': Normally when venturing into a dungeon, coming across a room with nothing but adorable, tiny, pink-hooded cat girls would be a good thing. Not in this game as Mayus want to kill you just like any other monster.
99	* ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'':
100	** It's a recurring element with the Zora across the series:
101	*** Ruto, the Princess of the Zora, grows into this after the TimeSkip in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime''. Compare [[https://zelda.fandom.com/wiki/Princess_Ruto her]] appearance [[TheUglyGuysHotDaughter with that of her]] [[https://zelda.fandom.com/wiki/King_Zora_XVI father's]]. Granted, the majority of the Zora in ''Ocarina'' aren't exactly ugly, with the other males having visible pecs and the females having NonMammalMammaries, but Ruto stands out by being one of the few without a large head-tail or eyes that are entirely blue (the only other Zora in ''Ocarina'' to also fit that bill is her father).
102	*** The Zoras are an odd case in ''Twilight Princess''. Most of them look the same, with no sexual dimorphism and being ''very'' androgynous. Some of them wear fish-like helmets, but their real faces are rather human. The Zora Queen Rutela, on the other hand, is much more human-like, with a distinct bust and something hairlike on her head.
103	*** In ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkBetweenWorlds'', the Zora once again have their much uglier [[Film/CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon Gillman]]-esque "River Zora" looks from the earlier 2D games, but their Queen Oren looks like an attractive woman with a few River Zora attributes.
104	*** Downplayed with Mipha from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild''. In contrast to the fish-like AnimalEyes and ScaryTeeth of the other Zora, her eyes and mouth are more human-like, but she otherwise exhibits the same bestial SharkMan attributes of the others. Her brother Sidon is considered a ChickMagnet in-universe ([[BaraGenre and out]]) despite being even more shark-like than the other Zora.
105	** ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Twilight Princess]]'' has other examples:
106	*** Even if Yeto happens to be a friendly guy, his [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti big, hulking yeti]] stature with a face that one would expect a yeti to have can impress you the first time. His wife Yeta, on the other hand, is a walking ball of fur (or clothes, it's hard to tell) with a much cuter face. [[spoiler:At least when she's not possessed by the dungeon boss, then her face [[NightmareFace goes all scary-like]]...]]
107	*** When not under Zant's curse, regular twilight citizens aren't so much ugly as featureless, their only "monstrous" feature being their CreepilyLongArms. Even with that curse which shrank and deformed her, Midna is essentially a fairy woman with HartmanHips, and her "monstrous" features (big head, CuteLittleFangs, long arms and weird skin-tone) make her more cute than creepy.
108	* Creator/AdultSwim Flash Game ''VideoGame/LesbianSpiderQueensOfMars'' has, well, the lesbian Spider Queen of Mars(it's the lower half that's a spider).
109	* ''[[VideoGame/Lineage2 Lineage II: The Chaotic Throne]]'': Male dwarves look like their counterparts in ''[=WoW=]'' and similar games... but ''female'' dwarves look like baby-faced teenage jockettes, scaled down to size.
110	* In ''[[VideoGame/MightAndMagic Might & Magic VII]]'' goblins are available as a PlayerCharacter race; both the female ones available for your party and the NPC ones you meet in Deja and the Pit are attractive in their own way.
111	* The HGame series ''Monster Girl Quest'' is filled with these. They are actually all a nation of different OneGenderRace monsters who rely on human males to reproduce [[EroticEating and as a]] [[ImAHumanitarian food source]]. The game does a fair job at toeing the line of this trope, as while many of the monsters are cute, or have cute aspects, many of them are equally ''[[BodyHorror monstrous]]'' at the same time.
112	* Fayemelina, one of the more notable examples from ''VideoGame/MonsterLegends''. She is absolutely gorgeous, and her in-game description even states that she is the "most fun, charming, and beautiful monster of them all".
113	* The Pixie species from ''VideoGame/MonsterRancher'' is a race of cute, impish girls with demon horns, wings, tails, and CuteLittleFangs. It's implied in some games that they are AlwaysFemale, but the ''names'' bestowed on some Pixie NPC monsters seems to suggest that there are some males--they just look exactly the same as the females.
114	* ''Franchise/MortalKombat'':
115	** Sheeva. She's a Shokkan: a ProudWarriorRace of [[StatuesqueStunner tall]], [[AmazonianBeauty muscular]], [[MultiArmedAndDangerous four-armed]] humanoids. But compared to her male counterparts Goro and Kintaro, Sheeva is relatively shorter and thinner in build and gets more attention from the fans than one would think. The one exception is ''VideoGame/MortalKombatArmageddon'', where she is considerably bulkier, which is fitting since she serves as the sub-boss for the all-women arcade ladder. When she returns in ''VideoGame/MortalKombat9'' however, she's slender again. In ''VideoGame/MortalKombat11'', she regains ''some'' bulk, but we finally see average male Shokan as well, who are actually closer to ''her'' in size than to Goro and Kintaro, who were monstrously huge even by Shokan standards.
116	** Mileena started off as subversion of this, as she's mostly human-looking but with a gruesome set of [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily teeth]] thanks to her shared Tarkatan DNA, which made her quite the ButterFace in the eyes of many players. ''However,'' ''VideoGame/MortalKombatX'' changes her face, giving her human lips with toothy cheeks, causing players to note how beautiful she was. Fanart especially had a field day with her makeover [[https://orig00.deviantart.net/7310/f/2015/106/d/2/mileena___request___by_esther_fan_world-d8ps505.jpg (wow)]].
117	** [[InsectQueen D'vorah]] from ''[=MKX=]'' would seem like she would count, but her personality and behavior just makes her gross and disturbing. Even her [[https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/mkwikia/images/0/02/D%27Vorah_MKX_ending_2015-04-15_15-20-48.png/revision/latest?cb=20150416012233 babies]] aren't really cute (mostly because they're bursting out from Shinnok's stomach.
118	** Frost becomes this in ''VideoGame/MortalKombat11''. After taking control of the Cyber Lin Kuei and being cyberized herself, she keeps her head and face intact and her new robot body has feminine curves and breasts. Considering other cyberninjas lose their human appearance entirely, the only in-universe explanation we can think of is vanity and ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem.
119	* ''VideoGame/MuramasaTheDemonBlade'':
120	** We're talking a game set in [[JidaiGeki Feudal Japan]]. [[AsianFoxSpirit Kongiku and Yuzuruha]] are standouts here. Raijin (who resembles an oni) is quite attractive, but her beauty is mostly overshadowed by her brash and aggressive nature (almost to [[TheLadette Ladette]] levels, [[{{Tsundere}} go figure]]). The only times it surfaces is when she's knocked out of the sky (she lands on her rump and takes a moment to tend to her rear in a typical CuteClumsyGirl fashion; notably, her voice raises from sultrily deep and tough to innocuously cute) and briefly after the BossBattle with her when Fujin calms her down. And once you beat her, she is just adorable. More are added for ''Rebirth''; the first main character is Miike, a female [[CatGirl Nekomata]] in the form of her human master Okoi, and the second is Rajyaki, a small Oni girl. Meanwhile, Gonbe is assisted by his wife's still-attractive ghost, while Arashimaru's snake familiar is actually a shapeshifting minor deity out for his blood.
121	** {{Gender Flip}}ped with Fujin, a small and adorable imp, not to mention Raijin's more laid-back [[GodCouple romantic partner]].
122	* In ''VideoGame/NeoSteam'', the male Beast races are huge hulking wolf-men or bear-men, depending on faction. Their female counter-part race are small, slender, curvy catgirls with cute stubby tails.
123	* ''VideoGame/NeverwinterNights'':
124	** The tiefling Valen of the ''Hordes of the Underdark'' expansion is male example, being uncharacteristically attractive for a fiend.
125	** ''VideoGame/NeverwinterNights2: Mask of the Betrayer'' gives us another male example in Gannayev, a Hagspawn, which are male Hag/Human hybrids and typically look something like [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hagspawn.JPG this]]. Gann, on the hand, looks like [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gannayev.JPG this]]. Most people in the fandom adamantly refused to believe that this was the official character portrait of Gann because, really, there was absolutely no justifiable way a Hagspawn could look that pretty until actually playing the game, where it was [[HandWave revealed]] that his looks resulted from [[ThePowerOfLove the love his parents had for each other]].
126	** Neeshka. A tiefling rogue in ''VideoGame/NeverwinterNights2'' with horns and (provided the game is updated) a tail. Considered by many fans to be the cutest girl in the game, Neeshka and a male main character is the FanPreferredCouple to such an extent that an add-on module has been released to reinstate her as a romance option, after it was cut during development due to time restraints.
127	* ''VideoGame/{{NOISZ}}'': The Noise Beasts occasionally have appearances similar to this when in their own world or purified. [[spoiler: [[PoweredByAForsakenChild NOISZ Beasts]]]] also appear as these, at least when transformed.
128	* ''VideoGame/{{Paladins}}'':
129	** Willo is a fairy who looks rather [[OurFairiesAreDifferent inhuman]] compared to other fairies. She's pink, hairless, and her clothes seem to be merged to her body in some places. Regardless, she is cute, whimsical, and playful, even when she's protecting the forests from modern civilization.
130	** Talus is a cute monster ''boy'', with grey skin, wide eyes, horns, CuteLittleFangs, a bull-like tail, a big heart, and an [[{{Keet}} energetic personality]]. He's a ska'drin, an ancient species of demon-like people who have been oppressed for ages and he strives to proves that his kind are not evil demons that others think they are.
131	* Ellen and Tammy from ''DarthWiki/PaleBlue''. In contrast to most examples however they play much more on the monster aspect.
132	* The first two ''VideoGame/PaperMario'' games include characters from enemy species [[TokenHeroicOrc who join Mario in his quests]], and all of them look cute to various degrees.
133	** ''VideoGame/PaperMario64'' has [[ExpositionFairy Goombario]], a Goomba with a cap and whose CuteLittleFangs are replaced with molars, and [[CuteGhostGirl Lady Bow]], a female Boo who's a bit snobbish (her basic attack is a repetition of {{Bitch Slap}}s and her victory animation is a silent NoblewomansLaugh) but still adorable nonetheless for the sole reason she's a Boo.
134	** ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor'' has [[TheSmartGal Goombella]], a Goomba student with an archeologist helmet and a single fang, and [[DarkIsNotEvil Vivian]], a LivingShadow with a [[CuteWitch funny witch hat]] who starts as the TokenGoodTeammate of the villains and who's abused by her elder sister Beldam, who helps Mario [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe after his helps spares her from a punishment]], and [[HeelFaceTurn who ends up joining him for good when he's at his lowest point]].
135	* ''VideoGame/PathfinderWrathOfTheRighteous'' has a few, some of whom are romanceable:
136	** [[TheAtoner Aspiring]] AscendedDemon Arueshalae, who is a romanceable companion. She's a reformed succubus who looks just like an attractive young woman with horns and bat wings.
137	** Arue's old boss, Nocticula, the [[DemonLordsAndArchdevils demon lord of darkness and lust]] and [[SuccubiAndIncubi queen of all succubi]]. Even with the PointyEars, bat wings, and lava hooves, she's very beautiful.
138	** Areelu Vorlesh, MadScientist and HotWitch, was once a human woman who turned herself into a half-succubus.
139	** Woljif Jefto, a party member, is a boyishly handsome purple-skinned tiefling rogue with rams' horns and a prehensile tail.
140	** Wenduag the mongrelwoman is pretty cute for a blue-skinned spider-cat-[[MoleMen subterranean mutant]], and romanceable. (In the original AP, she had more insectile features, but the CRPG [[AdaptationalAttractiveness prettied her up a bit]].)
141	** Lann the mongrelman might be [[TwoFaced half-lizard on his left side]], but he's an athletically-built WalkingShirtlessScene and the unscaly side of his face is fairly handsome. He's a potential love interest for a female PC.
142	** On the villains' side of things Minagho the lilitu is attractive enough to be TheVamp even in her horned, eyeless true form.
143	* The MMORPG ''VideoGame/PerfectWorld'' has the race called the Untamed. The males are big muscular [[FunnyAnimal furries]], entirely hairy and with animal heads, and the females slender {{Cat Girl}}s (or fox-, demon-, etc.), with tails and a second set of ears or something similar on the sides of their heads, but otherwise as humans.
144	* ''VideoGame/PhantasyStar'' has this in spades. PSII had Nei, PSIV had Rika and Demi, and by PSO, Numans were a full-fledged minority within the population of Pioneer 2.
145	* ''VideoGame/PilgrimRPGMaker'': [[TheDragon Nekaneminorpe]] is a {{cyclops}} girl with cute GirlishPigtails and is relatively benevolent, especially in contrast to [[HumanoidAbomination Master Alice]].
146	* ''VideoGame/PlanescapeTorment'':
147	** A number of odd {{N\|onPlayerCharacter}}PCs can be added to your party. Only two are female, and both of them are conventionally very attractive, with some add-ons (a tail in the case of Annah and wings in the case of Fall-From-Grace). With Grace it's expected; she ''is'' a [[SuccubiAndIncubi succubus]]. However, Annah is a tiefling; that is, someone descended from a fiendish grandparent (possibly with a few "greats" thrown in), and most fiends in ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'', even female ones, aren't very attractive. Annah also wears a leather version of a [[ChainmailBikini Breast Plate]], including hooker boots. The PC can [[LampshadeHanging hang a lampshade]] on this by suggesting she strip it down further, adding a few more slashes, to distract her marks. She gets flustered by this remark, and he comments he thought that's what it was for in the first place. She claims she gets hot, and "suspects it's the fiend blood in me".
148	** The Brothel of Slaking Intellectual Lusts, where you find Fall-From-Grace, is full of these. It is, after all, still a whorehouse in Sigil, even if it offers strictly non-physical intimacies. There's Marissa the {{medusa}}, the extremely voluptuous "planetouched" Kesai-Serris [[note]] she's a half-[[MageSpecies Night Hag]] tiefling: her dad was a Cambion, a half-demon, mom was Ravel Puzzlewell the Night Hag[[/note]], Kimasxi Adder-Tongue the tiefling (though a scruffy and abrasive one, kept on as a sort of verbal dominatrix), and Dolora the [[RobotGirl very well-built golem]], most obviously, but it can be inferred most (or all) of the other six prostitutes are inhuman as well.
149	* ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'':
150	** Gardevoir and Lopunny, which admittedly look the same regardless if they are male or female. Gardevoir's pre-evolved form, Kirlia, is a Cute Monster ''Little'' Girl, and it's pre-pre-evolved form, Ralts, is a Cute Monster ''Toddler'', while Gardevoir also has its male counterpart, Gallade, a cute monster boy.
151	** Several other Pokémon seem to be this (though again they appear identical regardless of gender), including Misdreavus, Mismagius, Mawile, Gothitelle and Froslass. [[OneGenderRace Froslass is only female.]]
152	** Bellossom, Roselia, Roserade, Lilligant, Whimsicott and Florges can be seen as Cute Plant Girls, while Leavanny is a Cute Bug Girl.
153	** Mythical Pokémon Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Meloetta, Diancie and Magearna are genderless, but they look feminine, and adorable.
154	** By allowing most of its "Cute Monster Girl" mons to be male or female, Pokemon rather subverts this trope. Likewise, musclebound monsters like the Machop and Timburr lines can be either male or female.
155	** ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon'' introduces several cute monster girls.
156	*** Brionne and Primarina, two very feminine Cute Seal/Mermaid Girls and the evolutions of the Alola Water Starter, Popplio. The catch: they only have a 1 in 8 chance of actually being female.
157	*** Steenee and Tsareena, the two evolved forms of Bounsweet and the newest line of Cute Plant Girls. All three can only be female.
158	*** Lurantis is a Cute Plant Girl that is imitating a Cute Bug Girl.
159	*** Ribombee, Cutiefly's evolution is a Cute Bug/Fairy Girl that looks like it's wearing a scarf.
160	*** It also provides a particularly weird example in [[EldritchAbomination UB-02: Beauty]] [[spoiler:AKA Pheromosa]], which is a Cute ''Alien Cockroach'' Girl. [[http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/189/111/2e0.gif No, really]].
161	*** There's also the two "female" Tapus. Tapu Lele takes on the appearance of a cute, humanoid fairy in a half-shell, while Tapu Fini essentially looks like a mermaid.
162	** Introduced in ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'' are:
163	*** The Hatenna line, a line of [[CuteWitch cute witches]], which are somewhat of a counterpart to the above-mentioned Ralts line. While Hatenna itself [[WaddlingHead isn’t exactly humanoid]], its evolutions, Hattrem and Hatterene, fit the bill despite [[AxCrazy their personalities]].
164	*** Alcremie, a creature resembling a young girl that appears to be made out of whipped cream. It also fits [[SlimeGirl another trope]], given its amorphous body.
165	** ''VideoGame/PokemonScarletAndViolet'' introduced:
166	*** Ogerpon is a cute and shy Grass-type female-only Legendary based on the villainous Oni/Ogres from the fairytale ''{{Literature/Momotaro}}''. However, unlike in the source material, Ogerpon is actually the good guy and the "Peach Boy" (Pecharunt) and his animal companions (Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti) were the bad guys.
167
168	* ''VideoGame/{{Primal}}'' gives us little [[CreepyChild Elizabeth]] in the realm of Aetha since the inhabitants of this realm are all zombies/vampires. She loves to dance and carries a dead rat as if it were a plush toy.
169	* ''Anime/QueensBlade'' video games have Gal Monsters that can be caught and fight for the player.
170	* The female Satyros from ''VideoGame/RadiantHistoria'', especially [[http://radianthistoria.wikia.com/wiki/Aht Aht]].
171	* ''VideoGame/RagnarokOnline'' has a lot of these. Some examples: Maya, Moonlight Flower, Loli Ruri, Succubus, Valkyrie, Isis, Alice, Aliza. There are also many male examples.
172	* The cave goblins of ''VideoGame/RuneScape'' are pale-skinned, goggle-eyed, lanky, hairless, [[EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference low-poly]], and strange-looking even by goblin standards. And then there's Zanik, who after [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/scz4yla.png her latest graphical update]] looks like she just stepped out of a {{Moe}} anime.
173	* In ''VideoGame/SaintsRowGatOutOfHell'', Jezebel is ''absolutely adorable''! Even if she is {{Satan}}'s daughter.
174	* In the first ''VideoGame/ShadowHearts'' game male Harmonixer Yuri Hyuga transforms into almost completely inhuman monstrosities when he fuses with a monster soul- he'll usually still have 2 arms and 2 legs (usually), but only Seraphic Radiance/Dark Seraphim looks even ''remotely'' human- and it still has eerie pale skin and giant black wings. On the other hand, in ''Shadow Hearts: From the New World'', hot female harmonixer Shania transforms into beautiful non-human creatures which are still ''abundantly'' female and wearing [[{{Stripperiffic}} even less than she usually does]]. Yuri hits the middle ground, however, with his Level 1 Fusions in ''Shadow Hearts: Covenant'', which are generally attractive male non-human creatures wearing less than Yuri usually does.
175	* The default character portraits for Trolls and Orks in ''VideoGame/ShadowrunReturns'' include some Cute Monster Girls and Cute Monster Boys, though they run the full range from "cute if you don't mind fangs/horns" to "not conventionally attractive, but still mostly human-looking except for the obvious bits that distinguish them from baseline humans" to "outright monstrous." This is '''completely''' in line with the original tabletop lore.
176	* A large number of the enemies and villains in ''VideoGame/{{Shantae}}'' are Cute Monster Girls. Among them: Cute Scorpion-Girls, Cute Water Lobster Thing Girls, Cute Snake Girls, and ''Cute Zombie Girls''.
177	* ''Franchise/ShinMegamiTensei'':
178	** Most, if not all, the female demons and deities, especially ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiIIINocturne'', as even the ones who are officially supposed to be hideous still manage to look really sexy (with perhaps the only exception definitely being the "Old Hag" type of demoness).
179	** Mother Harlot has a pretty nice body. [[http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnayixWLTB1qlhbe8o1_500.jpg Her face, on the other hand, could use some work.]]
180	** The kid-friendly spinoff ''[=DemiKids=]'' takes this to an utterly ridiculous degree with some of its designs. Some are sort of logical, but others, like the Banshee and Harpy, are a bit of stretch. They even managed to turn ''Dullahan'' (a HeadlessHorseman who rides on a similarly headless horse and functions as an omen of death) into one of them. [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/megamitensei/images/a/a0/Dullahan.jpg Take a look.]]
181	** ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiIV'' uses this for a number of the old standards, but subverts it ''hard'' with some of the redesigns, especially for Lilith. You know how Lilith used to look like Gozer with a snake around her neck? '''''Not anymore.'''''
182	* As the name suggests, the main character of ''VideoGame/ShironeTheDragonGirl'' is a dragon girl named Shirone (a silver one to be exact). She has silver horns, wings and tail, and golden eyes with slit pupils. Other than that, she is your regular kawai anime girl.
183	* The Dagonian race of FishPeople in ''VideoGame/{{Skullgirls}}'' are often more fish than human looking, but minor character Minette looks like a human girl with a tadpole tail for hair. There's also Squigly, who's remarkably cute for a zombie.
184	* ''VideoGame/{{Smite}}'' loves this trope. While male deities can range from human to positively monstrous, many of the female deities are almost universally beautiful women with various costume additions, with a few exceptions. Special mention should be made to Scylla [[spoiler:for toying with this trope]]: she's depicted as a cute little girl in a dress with a mischievous smile...[[spoiler:and four horrific dog-headed serpent-tentacles instead of legs!]]
185	* ''VideoGame/StarCraft'' has the Zerg Queen of Blades, Sarah Kerrigan. For someone who's been infested by TheVirus she's still smokin' hot, but much of this is due to ArtEvolution. In ''Brood War's'' cinematics and menus, Kerrigan looked [[http://images.wikia.com/starcraft/images/1/18/InfestedSarahKerrigan_SC1_Art3.png like this]] and [[http://images.wikia.com/starcraft/images/6/66/InfestedSarahKerrigan_SC1_Art2.jpg this]]. Nowadays her appearance is locked onto [[http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090704143245/starcraft/images/thumb/1/1a/InfestedKerrigan_SC2_Phys3.jpg/640px-InfestedKerrigan_SC2_Phys3.jpg this]]. It's also lampshaded in-universe that her beautiful human face has mostly been unaffected by infestation, and is another tool she can rely on to distract an enemy if she's ever in close-quarters combat.
186	** Kerrigan's appearance is such that she seems attractive, if spiky, from a distance, but her anatomy is sheer BodyHorror when seen up close. After HumanityEnsues in ''VideoGame/StarCraftII'', she seeks out a new Zerg form that looks more like a xenomorphic bodysuit.
187	* ''VideoGame/TalesSeries'':
188	** ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'' has The Mandragora/Alraune enemies, which are just humans with green hair and flowers growing out of their heads. ''Dawn of the New World'' makes them look significantly more inhuman, though. Others included the Lamia/Medusas, Harpy/Feather Magics, Amphitra/Mermaid/Sea Horrors, and potentially the angels and summon guardians.
189	** Fenia from ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphoniaDawnOfTheNewWorld''; the best mage {{mon}}ster in the game, talks, and plays this trope perfectly straight.
190	** ''VideoGame/TalesOfRebirth'' plays this straight and averts it with Hilda, a Gajuma-Huma half-breed. In-universe, Hilda's horns made her appear to be an ugly freak, but anyone can see that Hilda is attractive with or without the horns.
191	* Eliza in ''Franchise/{{Tekken}}'' is a female vampire with demon-like characteristics like curved horns, but she is still very pretty, feminine and dorky due to her {{Sleepyhead}} tendencies.
192	* Nearly every single ''Franchise/TouhouProject'' character (and there are a lot) is one of these, with LittleBitBeastly individuals rampant, and some of the most horrendous {{youkai}} appearing [[HumanAliens almost indistinguishable to humans]]. For only some examples, Nitori is supposed to be a {{kappa}}, Aya and Hatate are supposed to be (crow) {{tengu}}, Mamizou is a {{tanuki}}, [[ADogNamedDog Satori]] and Koishi are supposed to be [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satori_%28folklore%29 Satori]], and Yamame is meant to be a GiantSpider, and yet at most they only have one or two features that indicate them as such. The few male characters in the series tend to appear more monstrous (and old), with Genji being a talking turtle and Unzan being a cloud. There are occasional subversions, like Kogasa (a {{karakasa}} who is explicitly ''both'' the girl with the blue dress ''and'' the umbrella she's holding) and the bestial youkai rabbit in one of Maribel's dream-excursions, and very few of them ''act'' cute, most of them being violent bigoted jerks who are not above threatening to [[ToServeMan eat the protagonist]]. Played with by {{Nue}}, who is embarrassed by how unscary her ShapeshifterDefaultForm is and goes to great lengths to hide it.
193	* Every character that isn't the PlayerCharacter [[spoiler:or Chara, the other fallen human]] in ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' is a monster, and while their designs vary, this trope is generally in effect for monsters of both genders, particularly for major characters. Undyne is basically a female human with scales, fangs, and a few fins (she also has an EyepatchOfPower and a long red ponytail) and Dr. Alphys is a dorky, anime-obsessed bipedal yellow lizard with NerdGlasses and a LabcoatOfScienceAndMedicine. Muffet is a spider-girl who resembles a bluish-purple-skinned humanoid girl in a Victorian tea-party outfit with extra limbs, eyes, and CuteLittleFangs. On the male side we have Papyrus, a goofy skeleton dressed in an elaborate costume, and his lackadaisical brother Sans. Both Toriel and [[spoiler:Asgore]] are older than usual for this trope--both are basically middle-aged--but resemble tall goat-like humanoids with friendly faces and white fur, and both have their fans in-universe and out. Mettaton seems to defy this, as despite being the underground's closest thing to a sex symbol he's just a boxy robot who is little more than a [=TV=] screen on a wheel, [[spoiler: but his alternate forms are androgynous robo-{{Pretty Boy}}s]].
194	* Pizepi Joren from ''VideoGame/Wasteland2'' is a young, green-skinned mutant girl and a potential party member. Despite her describing herself as ugly, she looks quite pretty in her in-game model and portrait. Her bright and quirky personality also add to her "cuteness".
195	* The female [[ProudWarriorRace Draken]] of ''VideoGame/WildStar'' are, both in-universe and out of it, renowned for their attractive appearance. That they could and probably will murder you in an instant doesn't ruin the attraction one iota--you could even say it helps.
196	* ''VideoGame/WitchHunterIzana'': A feature of the setting, called Patirhumans they reproduce by transforming humans. However transformations as fast as Verand's curse allow are unusual in the setting. The majority of transformations in game are Monster-girl transformations, and Sage the moth-girl is one of the primary vendors.
197	* In ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'', the female members of "monstrous" races often [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe look like models with paint jobs and funny hairdos]]. They also tend to be [[MostCommonSuperpower rather well endowed]].
198	** Females of the minotaur-like Tauren are pretty heavily built, but they're still downright slender compared to the massive bulls.
199	** Female orcs and trolls have perfect posture compared to their hunched-over male counterparts, with slimmer builds (though female orcs are still relatively muscular) and less pronounced tusks. Before the ''Warlords of Draenor'' model rework, the game provided one conventionally attractive face option for both, jokingly known as "Cutefase" (sic). The vast majority of female orc/troll player characters used said faces (though the [=NPCs=] had a variety of faces.)
200	** This was initially averted with female tauren and trolls in the beta. Troll women had larger tusks (though still smaller than the men's) and a slouching posture, and tauren women were taller and stockier. Negative feedback from players led to the women--and ''only'' the women--of these races being made more attractive by human standards.
201	** The Naga, a race of SnakePeople. The women are slender with noticeably elven facial features (they used to be night elves). The men, however, are bulkier and more bestial in appearance, with fully dragon-like heads. It's also implied that the men are less intelligent as well.
202	** Draenei women are approximately [[HugeGuyTinyGirl half the mass of their male counterparts]], [[BizarreSexualDimorphism their tails and facial tendrils are far more understated]], and they lack the men's forehead crests that make the face look less human (trading it out for goat horns that the men lack). On the other hand, they're less human than the male draenei in a sexiness-enhancing way: the males just have a human, straight-backed posture, but the females' hooves are shaped in such a way to give them a "high heels" posture that pushes the chest forward and the hips back. Even in-universe, female draenei are renown for their beauty.
203	** The Forsaken, with the obvious exception of their queen [[MsFanservice Sylvanas Windrunner]], somewhat downplay this. While female Forsaken do look less ugly than their male counterpart, they still have the same decaying parts and somewhat hunchback stance, and their chest is ''much'' less pronounced than for other races.
204	** The Pandaren. Even though both genders are full-figured, the women are attractively curvy, have longer legs, and are overall meant to be as cute as possible, while the men have short, stumpy legs and beer guts. That being said, male Pandaren do have a following among gay male players for [[TheBear understandable reasons]].
205	** Before their model rework, Female Worgen occupied a weird position where they had supermodel physiques but their face options tended to be rather vicious-looking. Their face options post-rework lean firmly into this trope while their male counterparts run the gamut from ferocious-looking to surprisingly pleasant.
206	* Kasandra from ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles2'' is a cute female Blade with bestial extremities. Her hands and feet are midnight blue colored and possess sharp claws.

Context CuteMonsterGirl / VideoGames
