Go To

1* Dante's father from ''VideoGame/DantesInferno''. Besides being a {{Jerkass}} to [[AbusiveParents his son]], he was a complete pig who wasted all of his family's money on wine, women and song. Predictably, when Dante encounters him in Hell, he's become a demon of {{Greed}}.
2* ''VideoGame/GrandiaII'':
3** The mayor of Lilligue is one of these. But then, he has been possessed by the tongue of a demon-god, so....
4** [[spoiler: Pope Zera]], a boss with animated ''jowls'', undergoes a FaceHeelTurn by the end.
5* Sturrock the Meat King, your first target from ''VideoGame/HitmanContracts''. His perverse sexual proclivities complement his sizable mass, making it clear that he is evil and unsavory in every possible way.
6* King Dedede, recurring nemesis of ''VideoGame/{{Kirby}}''. The two often end up in a battle over who gets to eat more. This is even the whole point of Gourmet Race, one of the games in ''VideoGame/KirbySuperStar''. The "Villainous" part ends up being dropped after a bunch of CharacterDevelopment and eventually HeelFaceTurn in ''Ultra.''
7* From ''VideoGame/{{Overlord}}'', there's Melvin Underbelly, an embodiment of gluttony. He's so fat that, when you encounter him again in the BonusLevelOfHell, you use him to play both golf ''and'' Breakout...
8* Duke Oliver in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance''.
9* ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes'': Assassin No. 3, Speed Buster. Despite her apparent vagrancy...
10* ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'': Dr. Robotnik/Eggman is usually portrayed as this to excuse his gimmicky shape, but we've only ever seen him eat something once in the games. However, it involves him eating a submarine sandwich in under two bites, so it has some merit. Adaptations outside of the games have him indulge in comfort food whenever his plans go awry.
11** ''VideoGame/SonicLostWorld'', Zomom of the Deadly Six might qualify for this Trope.
12* ''VideoGame/JakAndDaxter'' has Krew, a morbidly obese villain fond of stuffing his face.
13* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames'':
14** Glutko in ''Link: The Faces of Evil'' is an [[FatBastard obese]], [[GreenAndMean green]] cyclops who enjoys eating people. The cutscene where Gwonam informs Link about Glutko shows him feasting on some Koridians and he attempts to eat Link when the hero finally confronts him. Incidentally, he's beaten by [[FeedItABomb getting him to eat a bomb]].
15** Omfak in ''Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon'' roasts a bird alive before eating it in his introductory cutscene and even states that he intends to devour whatever he sees.
16* Mr. Luggs from ''VideoGame/LuigisMansion''. You can hear his eating from the other side of the mansion, he [[FireBreathingDiner shoots fire at Luigi]] and apparently ate himself to death by the age of 30. As the description says: ''He prefers all-you-can-eat buffets to three meals a day. He ate himself to death but still wasn't satisfied.''
17* Mhasse in ''VideoGame/HypeTheTimeQuest'' is a morbidly obese monk which is fought on top of the monastery's belfry which guards the ill-begotten Royal Jewel and tries to send Hype plummet down the tower to his death. When he is first met, he is seen gorging himself with beer and a large ham while burping disgustingly.
18* The Mr. Creosote lookalike in ''VideoGame/GhostbustersTheVideoGame'', also known as the "Sloth Ghost." He's even worse than Slimer. If you read his description in Tobin's Spirit Guide, you'll learn he committed suicide by devouring a Thanksgiving meal for ''twenty people''.
19* Bowser himself from ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'', in specific, during ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiBowsersInsideStory''.
20* Borgan from ''VideoGame/LunarEternalBlue''. So fat he apparently has to have corridors greased to pass through them. Additionally, there are pictures of various characters in-game called bromides, and they usually show people in an attractive pose. [[FanDisservice Borgan's is bathtime]].
21* ''[[VideoGame/TengaiMakyouIVTheApocalypse Tengai Makyou IV]]'' features Madame Appetit, who leads a bizarre cult of gluttony out of Tombstone, AZ. She also proves to be an {{Acrofatic}}.
22* [[ObviouslyEvil Dong Zhuo]] from ''VideoGame/DynastyWarriors''. Seriously, it's surprising that he can even fight with that bulk weight on.
23* Governor Phatt is the fascist dictator of Phatt Island in ''VideoGame/MonkeyIsland2LeChucksRevenge''. It's redundant to mention that he's, by a bizarre coincidence no doubt, fat and is shown constantly (even subconsciously at times, it appears) eating whatever it is that's shoved down the tubes that lead to his bed that he never leaves? ([[WildMassGuessing It appears, from the color and consistency, to be]] [[{{Squick}} ketchup, mayonnaise, and guacamole.]])
24* ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiStrangeJourney'':
25** The monstruous demon lord Horkos from. Often eats his own underlings. Ate dozens of humans during his initial rampage. ''Wants to consume the entire world''.
26** Not to mention his humble abode, Sector Carina of the Schwarzwelt. The entire dimension is modelled after a titanic shopping mall, with conveyor belts churning more and more food and luxury items, which are never enough to sate Horkos' eternal hunger for ''more''.
27* The major villains of ''VideoGame/Persona5'' correspond to the SevenDeadlySins. The third major boss of the game, a FatBastard yakuza named Junya Kaneshiro, embodies Gluttony: he is perfectly content ruining the lives of others via threats and blackmail by stealing and hoarding fine luxuries. His [[EldritchLocation Palace]] is a massive bank where its residents are walking, talking ATM machines (giving it ties to {{Greed}} as well), and his Shadow Self transforms into Beelzebub (albeit under the name Baal).
28** The ''VideoGame/Persona5Strikers'' bosses fit the same theme, with Gluttony being taken by Mariko Hyodo, a Sapporo politician. Unlike Junya, she doesn't care about physical luxuries, but for political power; she's a perfectionist who insists that even the smallest things always be done ''her'' way- not because she thinks her way is the best, but because she thinks it's the ''only'' possibility [[StartOfDarkness after a corrupt contractor threatened to pin the accidental death of a young girl (who said contractor inadvertently killed via slipshod work) on her]]. And while Mariko herself is thin, her Shadow is a FatBastard because she's been figuratively gorging herself on all the votes that she used [=EMMA=] to get.
29* ''Videogame/{{Cursery}}'''s version of Humpty Dumpty was an aristocrat cursed with a ravenous appetite after Mother Goose gifts him with a magical (actually cursed) fruit.
30* Big Smoke, the fat member of the gang in ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas''. His rather complicated order at the Cluckin' Bell consist of two Number 9s, one Number 9 large, one Number 6 with extra dip, one Number 7, 2 Number 45s (one with cheese), and a large soda. That alone sounds impressive, if vague, but someone actually did the research to figure out exactly how much food it was, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3cvmtPuvXo&t=302s seen here]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txRqHPDv_Jg&t=33s edited here.]]
31* Each of the Psychopaths in ''VideoGame/DeadRising3'' correspond to the SevenDeadlySins. Gluttony is represented by Darlene, a [[FatBastard Fat Bitch]] on a scooter who tries to hoard a buffet for herself and stabs a man to death with a large spork for eating some of her food.
32* Zigzagged with King Hippo from ''VideoGame/PunchOut''. He's definitely a glutton, but he's [[AntiVillain far less malicious]] than most of Mac's opponents. (He even offers to take him out to lunch!) His food of choice is also a good deal healthier than your average villanous glutton as shown in his Wii game introduction, consisting of large amounts of tropical fruit and grilled meat.
33* The StarterVillain Tub-a-Tummy from ''[[VideoGame/SuperChinese Little Ninja Brothers]]'' is a FatBastard who stole all the food from the people of Deli-Chous, and used most of it to [[FatteningTheVictim fatten his kidnapping victims up]] so that he could [[ImAHumanitarian eat]] ''[[ImAHumanitarian them]]'', as well.
34* ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyCrystalChronicles'' has an unusual take on gluttony. [[spoiler: Raem, who subsists on memories (bad and painful memories in particular because they taste the best to him) in order to sustain himself. The spread of miasma throughout the world caused people to endure pain and suffering for a long time, which created painful memories. Because the Meteor Parasite is the source of miasma, Raem relies on the creature to keep producing it so that he himself can stay nourished through the sad memories. Mio, who is his counterpart, only nibbles on memories and can't endure the brilliant memories that the player character has. Both Raem and Mio are the reason why everyone in the world seems to forget things every so often, but Mio demands Raem to stop so people won't suffer any longer. Raem doesn't agree and wants even more memories to consume before proceeding to attack the player character.]]
35* An early ''VideoGame/RuneScape'' quest, "Let Them Eat Pie", features one of these named Rolo the Stout, who literally eats nothing but pies while the refugees in town suffer in poverty. You trick him into eating a rancid pie so the refugees can receive assistance.
36* ''Franchise/FiveNightsAtFreddys'':
37** In the first ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys1'', Chica wears a bib that reads "Let's Eat!", and she can often be heard in the kitchen, presumably stuffing her face with pizza.
38** Emphasized further with Glamrock Chica in ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysSecurityBreach'', who is first encountered by the player hunched over a pile of garbage and viciously shoveling it down her throat.
39* ''VideoGame/CostumeQuest'' has Big Bones, a big, fat Grim Reaper who forces his minions to gather candy for him.
40* Guests of the Maw in ''VideoGame/LittleNightmares''. These bloated freaks do nothing but cram the meals prepared by the Twin Chefs down their gullets, and if they spot Six they will drop whatever they're doing and try to catch and eat her.
41* The depraved Governor Cassus Vicus from ''VideoGame/CliveBarkersJericho'', the ruler of the Roman city inside the Pyxis, who was once banished there by Emperor Caligula himself who didnt like that Vicus vices outmatched his own. He's become a pale, hideously obese monster after literally thousands of years of indulging himself in the hellish realm, and tellingly, he's the only one of the antagonists who ''enjoys'' the nightmare world they're trapped in. He's become so fat that he has to be moved around by a crane during his boss fight.
42* The titular ''[[{{VideoGame/TrillionGodOfDestruction}} Trillion: God of Destruction]]'' certainly counts as this, devouring anything and anyone in its path. If it manages to eat the Underworld's Core, the universe ''will end!'' [[spoiler: The game's true ending reveals that Trillion [[WasOnceAMan was a former Fallen One]] like the main cast, driven to Revenge over the death of [[SamusIsAGirl her]] Great Overlord at the hands of the Heavenly Forces. Sadly, eating her Underworld's Core in a bid to gain power enough to kill God broke her mind and slowly transformed her into the multiverse-devouring monstrosity we see in-game.]]
43** A non-villainous version of this trope is also seen with Perpell, the young niece of Great Overlord Zeabolos, and the holder of the Crest of Gluttony. True to her Crest, she can pack away the food like nobody's business. [[spoiler: She's also quite nice enough to share her snacks to cheer up anyone that's looking depressed or down.]]
44* Lord Vauthry of the ''Shadowbringers'' expansion to ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV'' rests atop a [[AdiposeRex terribly distressed throne]] and, when confronted by the Warrior of Light and their allies, just won't stop eating his meol long enough to bother with them. He even eats the fork.
45* ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'' has Tahm Kench, the River King, who's not only a giant frog/catfish-shaped being with [[VolumetricMouth an enormous maw for eating humans]], he's also [[OurDemonsAreDifferent a demon]] who [[EmotionEater feasts on their despair]]. The [[FauxAffablyEvil strangely comedic, affable side of him]] presents him as [[DealWithTheDevil a supernatural dealmaker]] with [[ManOfWealthAndTaste the disposition of a high-value customer at a fancy dinner]], but BeneathTheMask, he's [[JackassGenie a sociopathic monster stirring chaos and ruination in those he inevitably screws over]] as [[EvilTastesGood it makes things even tastier.]]
46* ''VideoGame/MinecraftLegends'': The Devourer is a very fat Piglin who invades the Overworld. He will attack the player on sight.
47* Gluttony, one of the Seven Princes of Hell in ''VideoGame/HellPie'', is the boss of Flavor Peaks and Nate's SitcomArchNemesis.
48* ''VideoGame/{{Rengoku}}'': In the second game Alcmaeon is a fat boss who considers Gram his "meal" and calls his weapons "tasty".
49* ''VideoGame/{{Ixion}}'': The very first conversation you have with [[spoiler: Giovanni Battista]], he's audibly chewing over the comms, instantly characterizing him as a selfish, gluttonous person who places his own instant gratification over others' respect. Surely enough, [[spoiler: he ends up taking advantage of the Lunaclysm to become the leader of the Black Market Society, living in unimaginable luxury in space while humanity goes extinct. Even further adding to the symbolism, it's his consciousness that becomes the basis for]] Naraka, the Piranesi's AI, whose sole purpose in existence is to endlessly devour.
