10 Video Game Cosplay Costume Ideas

Filed under: boyzzone — cu2nite @ 5:45 PM

Boys, this time around we went for fresh characters and less traditional costumes.  Afterall, everybody else has Mario and Link covered.  In addition to having new characters, the list rates each costume on the difficulty of work and costs involved to make it as well as the materials you will need. As a reference, we tried to find photos of cosplayers with already completed costumes. In the cases where we could not find a cosplayer, we used an in-game screenshot or concept art to point you in the right direction.

1) Nathan Drake
Nathan Drake is the cynical everyman protagonist in the popular Uncharted eries.  Nathan is a descendant of the famed explorer Sir Francis Drake, which we found out in his first adventure on the search for the lost city of El Dorado.

Level of Difficulty: Easy
Cost: Low
Materials Needed: All that is really needed is a long sleeved white undershirt, a dark gray overshirt that buttons at the top, a shoulder gun holster, a pair of old jeans, and a belt with a silver buckle.  If you want to add a bit more to your costume don’t forget to dye your hair black, add a necklace with a silver ring on it, and a few rolls in the dirt for added “adventurer” effect.

2) Knight (Castle Crashers)

These are the brave little nights in multi-colored armor from the game Castle Crashers. You control your favorite Castle Crasher, also known as the blue guy, and smash and slash your way through some really fun levels.

Level of Difficulty: Moderate, you will have to use your well-developed art skills in this instance.
Cost: Low
Materials Needed: This is a case where cardboard will not only work, but also work well in fitting the design of the costume. You will also need some flat hobby paint for your knight color of choice. The most difficult part will likely be curving the helmet to look, well, curved.
