Why on earth are we talking about resurrections on GameInformer.com, a publication that has been around and thriving since 1991? Unfortunately, there is simply no way of knowing how and why inspiration will strike, but it occurred to me that a lot of video games feature story moments where characters die and come back to life. Sometimes it happens immediately. Sometimes it happens seven months, three weeks, and two days later. In any case, please enjoy the top 11 resurrections in video games. We decided to go with 11 as opposed to the unofficial internet standard of 10, because sometimes when you get resurrected, you have to come back slightly bigger, but undeniably better.<\/p>\n

Mercy in Overwatch<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

Despite its colorful aesthetic and comic book superhero inspirations, Overwatch and its sequel are both games overflowing with death. Characters are dying every few minutes, sometimes seconds, but thankfully Mercy\u2019s Resurrect ability comes to the rescue. As the name of the ability implies, she has the powerful ability to bring characters back to life. It may not be the best resurrection on this list, hence its placement at the bottom, but it is certainly the <\/span><\/span>most <\/span><\/span>resurrection.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Link in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

Link is low on this list for an important reason. Despite waking up in the Shrine of Resurrection at the beginning of Breath of the Wild after being lifelessly dragged there by Zelda 100 years prior following a brutal defeat\u2026 we don\u2019t know that he was ever truly dead. It might have been more of a \u201cmostly dead\u201d situation, as explored in the 1987 film, <\/span><\/span>The Princess Bride<\/span><\/span>. The lore surrounding the situation is intentionally vague, but he seemed pretty dead to me. And you don\u2019t sleep 100 years if you\u2019re alive. That\u2019s science.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Sonic the Hedgehog in Sonic \u201906<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

Sonic has had some bizarre life experiences. He lived inside a pinball machine for a while, he briefly had really garish teeth for reasons no one ever figured out, and at one time, he transformed into a werehog. Despite those adventures, however, Sonic \u201806 is arguably his most bizarre. Sonic the Hedgehog was pronounced dead, but thankfully Princess Elise \u2013 a human woman \u2013 was able to channel the power of the Chaos Emeralds into a kiss that brought Sonic back to life and turned him into Super Sonic. Sonic would die and resurrect a few years later in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but without a kiss.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Ridley in Metroid<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

Ridley, or as his close friends know him, Cunning God of Death, is Samus\u2019 archnemesis. The creature killed Samus\u2019 parents and she, understandably, has never forgiven him for that act of violence. She thought she secured her revenge in Super Metroid, but he keeps getting resurrected, which Samus presumably thinks is quite annoying. Sometimes he gets resurrected as a clone. Sometimes he gets resurrected as a robot. No matter the case, Samus gets upset and shoots him a whole lot.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Scorpion in Mortal Kombat<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

When I was young, I never understood why the game was called \u2018Mortal\u2019 Kombat when characters were literally getting their heads ripped off, only to return for another fight a few minutes later. \u2018Immortal\u2019 Kombat seemed like a more accurate title, but I learned later that there is actually a whole dang story and some characters were actually dying. Not Scorpion, though. The yellow ninja begins his narrative as a resurrected, undead warrior seeking revenge for his own death and the deaths of those close to him.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Shepard in Mass Effect 2<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

In Mass Effect 1, we all meticulously designed our version of Commander Shepard, carefully deciding their backstory, facial features, and hairstyle. At the beginning of Mass Effect 2, the Geth blew them up and they died before the title screen even appeared. Thankfully, the mysterious Cerberus organization used its Lazarus Project technology to bring them back to life. It may not have been magic, but it still counts as a resurrection.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

[REDACTED] in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

I admit we are already treading into spoiler territory by including Metal Gear Solid 3 on this list, which is a game I suspect many will be playing for the first time soon with the Delta remake, so I will use our website\u2019s tools to allow you to opt in to reading this entry.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Naked Snake dies at a certain point in Metal Gear Solid 3, and it\u2019s not from eating rats and snakes without cooking them. Instead, he jumps from the top of a big waterfall. Don\u2019t worry \u2013 he gets an earful from his superiors for his shortsighted escape plan. Thankfully, as we all should, he keeps a revival pill embedded in one of his teeth and uses it to rejoin the land of the living. But not before encountering every animal and enemy he killed in the game up to that point.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Helix\/Dome Fossil in Pok\u00e9mon<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

In the original Pok\u00e9mon Red and Blue, there was another important choice to be made after picking Charmander as your starter (who can even remember the other options). Do you take the Dome or the Helix Fossil? Would you rather have Kabuto or Omanyte in your party? Regardless of what choice you make, you must commit an affront to God (AKA Arceus) by bringing a long-dead Pok\u00e9mon back to life via resurrection. Then you must live with that sin for the remainder of your attempt to catch \u2018em all. It\u2019s fun!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Heihachi in Tekken<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

Heihachi, the often antagonist, sometimes protagonist of the Tekken series has a go-to move that he probably never assumed would be used against him. He loves to throw an enemy into a volcano (or off a cliff), but in Tekken 7, his son Kazuya Mishima got the bright idea of doing the same to his abusive father and threw him into a river of lava, which a cursory Google assures me is not something a person can survive. Tekken\u2019s director, Katsuhiro Harada, also made it clear that he was truly, actually dead. But then, in Tekken 8, a resurrection took place in the form of DLC. \u201cIt wasn’t a lie,\u201d Harada told IGN<\/a><\/em> last year, \u201cAnd then, also, the timing is right since it’s the 30th anniversary of the franchise. And so, we need all three of the Mishimas. This is the most iconic in the series. Right?\u201d Long live Heihachi.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Everyone but Kirby in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

I will never forget sitting in a meeting room at E3 watching an early version of the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate trailer with a small collection of other game journalists and frantically writing down every fighter\u2019s name as it appeared on screen. I stopped, however, when the now-iconic \u201cEveryone is here!\u201d text appeared on screen and I fully understood what I was witnessing. What I didn\u2019t understand, however, was that in the coming months, we would be treated to a collection of trailers that systematically and callously murdered every one of those legendary characters. Thankfully, Masahiro Sakurai\u2019s genetic son Kirby (citation needed), survived long enough to resurrect everyone. To think we narrowly avoided a reality where Mario was canonically killed by Ridley from Metroid.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Dracula in Castlevania<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n
\n

Castlevania\u2019s vampire sorcerer, AKA Vlad \u021aepe\u0219 Dracula, AKA Dorakyura Vurado Tsepeshu AKA Mathias Cronqvist AKA Mr. Alucard\u2019s dad, is the king of never officially, truly, actually being forever dead. Video game bosses love to return after defeat in the previous game (e.g. Bowser, Dr. Wily, Ganondorf), but those guys either don\u2019t actually die, or they\u2019re reincarnated \u2013 which is a different thing. In the Castlevania series, you kill Dracula in almost every game, and in almost every follow-up game, some fool decides to bring him back via some shortsighted resurrection ritual. He will never be dead longer than the gap between releases, but that\u2019s okay because we like exploring his wonderful castle.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
