The Procrastinator's Guide To Video Game Halloween Costumes

2 years 6 months ago

Uh oh! It’s Halloween weekend, and you still don't have a costume for yourself or your children? Fear not! I have scoured the internet for the best, and worst, outfits you can buy. Being that we're all gamers here, I focused on outfits based on our favorite interactive medium. Some of these are great. Others... not so much. But the clock is ticking, and beggars can't be choosers. Here's a list of video game Halloween costumes that haven't sold out (yet), along with links to purchase them. 

Women's Yoshi Skirt Costume

If you don’t mind looking like you skinned Yoshi alive and wore his body parts like a monster, this women’s outfit is sure to delight, or horrify, Super Mario fans. | Purchase

 

Cuphead Adult Costume

If you're planning to make a deal with the Devil this Halloween, you may as well look the part in this Cuphead-inspired outfit. Yes, it also comes in Mugman.| Purchase

Adult Red Among Us Inflatable Costume

The real fun is having friends try to deduce who’s under this inflatable outfit. You can slide your arms through two front-facing holes in case you decide life must imitate art. By that, I mean ending a life. That's pretty sus. | Purchase

Ace Costume for Kids

Remember Ubisoft’s battle royale, Hyper Scape? It’s still a thing, and your kid can be the hipster among the sea of Fortnite costumes by repping a battle royale that hasn’t dominated all of pop culture. | Purchase

Harley Quinn Costume Arkham City

Harley Quinn has caught up to Heath Ledger’s Joker as a superhero costume you’ll see 1000 examples of. For video game fans, this outfit based on Harley’s Arkham-verse appearance looks pretty dang good. | Purchase

Sonic the Hedgehog Deluxe Movie Child Costume

Remember the near-disaster that was Sonic's original design for his feature film? Relieve those horrible memories, or rather let your kid fall into that trap, with this reminder of the internet's power to demand change. | Purchase
