Besides storylines and gameplay, characters are a huge draw that pull players into a game. Sometimes, these characters come with unique, extraordinary powers that let you explore the virtual world in fresh and exciting ways. These powers often make gamers wish they could have them in real life, even just once.
Here’s a countdown of the top 10 most coveted superpowers in gaming.
Kat’s Gravity Control Power, Gravity Rush
Flying has always been a dream for humans. Kat from Gravity Rush can fly by controlling gravity however she wants. No wings or jet engines needed, she just floats effortlessly in the air, riding gentle breezes wherever she pleases.
Plus, Gravity Rush’s gameplay offers a fun, free-flowing experience. The game world is designed perfectly to showcase Kat’s gravity powers at their best.
Maxwell’s Creative Power, Scribblenauts
Maxwell from Scribblenauts might not get much attention for his power, but he’s arguably one of the strongest characters in gaming history. Anything he writes in his magic notebook instantly becomes real.
This is godlike power. Maxwell can create food, clothes, or anything else he wants. If that’s not impressive enough, he can even bring life into existence.
Kratos’s Divine Strength, God of War
Kratos is the ultimate Greek god of war. He can quickly regenerate his body, has god-level physical strength, and seems immune to aging.
Coming from Sparta, Kratos is a true warrior with expert combat skills and the ability to quickly master weapons and magic from the gods. His brutal fighting style might be rough, but it’s exactly what keeps him from falling behind the gods on Mount Olympus.
Sephiroth’s Almighty Power, Final Fantasy
Sephiroth might be called “crazy” by many, but no one can deny he’s the ultimate villain in Final Fantasy VII.
His power is supreme. Not only is he a top-tier swordsman, but he also absorbed an all-powerful alien entity, allowing him to create a new body. Sephiroth can change his appearance and use magic without Materia. This nearly puts him on godlike levels in the game.
Dante’s Demon Power, Devil May Cry
The Devil May Cry series gave us Dante, a demon hunter who’s cool in a goofy, hilarious way. Gamers love his humor even more than the massive power he inherited from his demon father.
Thanks to that power, Dante can do things ordinary people only dream of: super strength, super speed, lightning-fast reflexes, and rapid healing, even from fatal wounds. He can even transform into a demon to boost his already incredible abilities.
