%%* ''VideoGame/AtelierIrisEternalMana'': Norn was an experiment on a housecat.
* In ''VideoGame/DarkCloud'' Xiao, Toan's pet cat, is turned into a catgirl once you give her a potion, and declares that she wants to help "Master" reassemble the Atlamilla, donning a slingshot and becoming your second party member.
* In ''VideoGame/DiabloIII'', an angel [[spoiler:Tyrael]] becomes human after tearing off his own wings.
* This is precisely what happens to [[spoiler:Imnity and Rico]] at the end of the final route in ''VideoGame/DuelSaviorDestiny''. Taiga just sorta strips them of their status as spirits and absorbs their power before [[spoiler:going off to beat up God.]]
* ''VideoGame/DustyRevenge'' and ''VideoGame/DustyRagingFist'' have re-releases for both games, with an "Almost Human" mode where the playable characters, mooks and bosses went from andromorphic animals to humans.
* Halfway through ''VideoGame/FrogFractions'', the frog is turned into a human being. [[spoiler: Subverted when it turns out to be AllJustADream.]]
* Some of the {{beast|Man}}men in ''VideoGame/GoldenSunDarkDawn'' originated as animals and became more human-like after Alchemy was released, and will happily chat with the heroes about how weird it is to be walking on one's hind feet, wearing clothes, and eating cooked meat instead of raw.
* Your character in ''VideoGame/HakaiouKingOfCrusher'' WasOnceAMan, before an alien virus turns you into a monster. The final cutscene have you regressing to a human, ''after'' you turned New York city into a wasteland, leading to you having a MyGodWhatHaveIDone moment.
* A wolf in ''VideoGame/KingdomsOfAmalurReckoning'' is cursed with humanity by a gang of mischievous Sprites in a sidequest. He is ''pissed'' about the change -- he can't hunt well without his fangs and claws, his own pack drove him off thinking he was just another human, humans think he's just a lunatic and forced him to wear ''pants''. The Fateless One can help the unfortunate wolf by killing the sprites and undoing the curse.
* In ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast'' there is a hidden Easter egg. If you go into the northwestmost house in Kakariko village, there's a vase which has a Cucco ([[CallARabbitASmeerp basically an in-universe chicken]]) hiding under it. Part way through the game you get the "Magic powder" item. If you sprinkle it on this Cucco then it turns into a woman and complains about the shift. The effect is reset when you leave the house. The Cucco-turned-woman also gives a hint about the town's statue being not quite what it seems.

* It's implied that Nastasia from ''VideoGame/SuperPaperMario'' used to be a bat who became humanoid to repay Count Bleck for freeing her from a trap.
* An interesting example from the ''Franchise/TouhouProject'': most fairies in Gensokyo are perfect {{mook}}s, lacking in personality but able to endlessly respawn if killed. [[AnIcePerson Ice fairy]] Cirno, on the other hand, has [[SmallNameBigEgo quite]] [[TheDitz a]] personality, and is several magnitudes more powerful than the average fairy. When she encounters Eiki Shiki, the yama conjectures that because Cirno's [[strike:[[MemeticMutation the strongest!]]]] so powerful and able to move around and cause trouble, she's coming closer to becoming a {{youkai}} and therefore mortal. The conversation goes completely over Cirno's head, of course...
** Plus, of course, there are all the {{youkai}} that take the form of cute girls, but which originally came from animals and inanimate objects lasting a hundred years, per Japanese mythology.
* Talazia from ''VideoGame/{{Weaponlord}}'' [[spoiler:is revealed to have actually been a raven who was cursed into becoming a human seven years ago. She also gets LaserGuidedAmnesia, making her only remember her time as a human.]]
* ''VideoGame/DragonQuest'':
** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestIV'': Healie, a flying slime whom you find in the first chapter, wishes to become human. When you see him again later in the game, his wish is seen to have been granted.
** A town in ''VideoGame/DragonQuestVII'' is under a curse, turning all animals into humans and humans into animals. A boy is found chained up in this town; he's actually a legendary white wolf. When the heroes defeat the monster responsible, he curses the wolf/boy to remain human despite the curse otherwise being lifted. The wolf/boy decides to join the heroes as "Ruff". After some time travel, the party encounters the monster again, mostly depowered, but also reformed. He apologizes to Ruff and attempts to turn him back into a wolf; instead, he accidentally gives Ruff the ability to speak. Ruff then tells him to stop trying to cast magic, as he's perfectly happy in his human form.
* In ''Videogame/DishonoredDeathOfTheOutsider'', [[spoiler:it is possible to do this to [[PhysicalGod The Outsider]] by convincing Daud to use [[IKnowYourTrueName his true name]] to the Outsider's "body" in the void, which will cause him to become a human once again]].
* In ''Amenity's Life'', the protagonist wakes up to find that his smartphone, robot vacuum, headphones and even the kitchen oven have turned into human girls.
* ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosU Deluxe'' introduces an item called the Super Crown that allows the character Toadette to turn into a facsimile of Princess Peach called Peachette. Fans latched onto this and came up with "JustForFun/{{Bowsette}}" -- Bowser transformed into a lookalike of Peach with horns and a tail. Naturally, this trope occurs (although it might be more accurate to say "[[AmbiguouslyHuman Ambiguous]] Humanity Ensues").
* In ''{{VideoGame/Solatorobo}}'', the normally Caninu Red Savarin inexplicably gains the ability to transform into a human upon encountering the DiscOneFinalBoss. [[spoiler:The second half of the game reveals that Red can transform because [[HybridAllAlong he's an artificially-made hybrid]] originally created for the sole purpose of bringing about the end of the world alongside his BigBad father and siblings, but his mother interfered with that by casting him out to an orphanage without his knowledge. Gameplay wise, Red can transform if his Trance gauge is filled up, giving him extra combat versatility.]]
* ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'':
** Dragons can voluntarily turn themselves into humanoid forms like humans, orcs and elves, which they usually do in areas that are otherwise too big to hold them or to spy on the other races as part of their charge in stewarting the world.
** Many races in Azeroth today were originally creatures of stone or metal known as the Titan-Forged, living tools made to serve the Titans in their grand design to guide Azeroth's development. The Old God, Yogg-Saron, spread an infection known as "the Curse of Flesh" that slowly turned the Titan-Forge into creatures of flesh and blood, all to make them more suseptible to madness and corruption.
