* Tikimon, the second (Or third if you count Cortex and Mecha-Bandicoot as separate fights) boss of ''VideoGame/CrashTwinsanity'', is a four-armed, destructive Tiki deity summoned by [[BigBadDuumvirate the Evil Twins]] to impede Crash and Cortex after escaping from Papu-Papu's tribe.

** Gilgamesh from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyV'' and ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII''. Best example though is arguably ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII'', where he not only uses six weapons at a time, but most are counterfeit versions of the weapons of previous heroes in the series.

** And Gilgamesh returns for the prequel, morphing into his eight-armed form for his SuperMode (each of which wielding a random weapon from his repertoire, making his attacks more reliable [[ConfusionFu than they were]]).

* A number of Hindu deities in the ''Franchise/ShinMegamiTensei'' series have multiple arms, and they are all very dangerous enemies... and very powerful allies, in turn.
