Summary

• LGBTQ+ representation in video games is growing and expanding, with plenty of great pansexual characters being introduced.
• Some of the best pansexual characters in video games include Maee Borowski from Night in the Woods and Finn McNamara from Life is Strange 2.

You know gaming is on the right track where there's enough LGBTQ+ representation to fill out a whole list, and it's fantastic to see, especially with pansexuality. Characters who identify as pansexual, meaning they don't factor in gender whatsoever when choosing their partners, have been becoming more and more prominent in video games.

Often, this status will be clarified more by the writers and game developers to distinguish characters from seeming queer-cod🦋ed, or sometimes the pansexuality of a character will be well-established through the dialogue and character writing. Whether they're a playable protagonist, a side character, or just an ordinary NPC, here are some of the best pansexual characters you'll currently find in gaming!

11 💃 Lifeweaver

Overwatch 2

The first 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Overwatch introduced a few LGBTQ+ characters, even though they weren't handled in the best way possible by Blizzard. But now, the sequel comes in and tries to do right by the co💎mmunity the second time ar🎉ound. One exceptionally loud and proud pansexual character is the heไro going by Lifeweaver.

The developers made it clear right away that Lifeweaver is pansexual, and you'll see his sexuality reflected in his dialogue interactions and the way his character is written and visually designed. The most important element is the flower attached to his back, as it represents his love for nature and all life. His healing abilities, like Tree of Life and Healing Blossom, further tie into the lore of his design.

10 ಞ Rick Sanchez

MultiVersus, Rick And Morty: Virtual Rick-Ality, Pocket Mortys

One of the most notable pansexual characters in the adult animated world is Morty's alcoholic scientist grandfather, Rick Sanchez, from Rick and Morty. His pansexual status was confirmed during a Comic-Con panel by his voice actor and was officially made canon in the episode called 'Auto Erotic Assimilation' in the show's second season.

Rick and Morty is up there with The Simpsons, South Park, Futurama, and Family Guy as one of the best adult animated comedy series of all time, and it's no surprise both Rick Sanchez and Morty are available as brawlers in WB Games' MultiVersus. Rick is armed with a laser and pꦯortal gun and has the ability to summon Mr. Meeseeks and u💮se a jetpack for his specials.

9 🐈 ꧅ Zane Flynt

Borderlands 3

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Borderlands 3 lets you take on a character from a new rag-tag team of Vault Hunters, and one of the members you can choose also happens to be pansexual, which is pretty epic to see for a Triple-A video game protagonist. His name is Zane Flynt, and he's the Operative class Vault Hunter with a connection to the previous games, as he's the brother of the bandits Baron Flynt and Captain Flynt from Borderlands and Borderlands 2, respectively.

Zane comes 168澳洲幸🌠运5开奖网:with some very unique tech-oriented skills, like one where he can create a Digi-Clone of himself that distracts and engages enemies during combat and another that allows him to use a shoulder cannon and a Sentinel Drone. He's a notorious mercenary who's done a lot of work for a lot of different organizations, and he's also polyamorous, with multiple marriages across the galaxy.

8 Lilith

Darksiders Series

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Lilith is a Queen of Demons commonly featured as a character in video games, particularly Diablo, Marvel's Midnight Suns, and the Darksiders series. The Darksiders version of Lilith is canonically pansexual, as according to the novel, Darksiders: The Abomination Vault, she has an assortment of demon lovers she's intimate with, including "some male, some female, some both, and a few neither."

168澳🌸洲幸运5开奖网:Darksiders is an excellent hไack-and-slash series based on biblic🥃al demons and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, who are of the ancient race created by Lilith – Nephilim. Lilith serves as an antagonist in the series and, naturally, her most famous power is the🐻 art of seduction, with her character design reflecting that as well.

7 Kevin

Saints Row (2022)

The 2022 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Saints Row remake was far from the best game in the series, but it did introduce plenty of excellent new characters, such as a Santo Ileso DJ named Kevin. His official bio reveals that not only is he polyamorous but also openly pansexual, noting that "he's attracted to people's hearts."

Kevin's role in the story is that he's a partygoing fixer for the Saints who was formerly associated with a rival gang known as The Idols, and his missions are some of the most fun in the game, thanks to a terrific voice performance by veteran voice actor Greg Chun. Kevin also wears cleverly branded Kevin Klein boxers 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:and has some really memorable ink that hints at his love for s💫yrup, milk, and waffles.

6 Fuse 🌼And Seer ♏

Apex Legends

Bringing pansexual representation to a multiplayer battle royale game are Fuse and Seer from Apex Legends. According to the official bio for Fuse on EA's website, he's described as a "ladies' man, man's man, and all-round manly man," and game writer . Similarly, Seer's pansexuality was from writer Amanda Doiron, saying he "sees to the heart of people and doesn't limit himself to a specific gender."

Fuse is the Aussie 'Grenado Tornado,' known for his cool mechanical arm that launches grenades and other projectiles, while Seer's ability literally allows him to see enemies' heartbeats. Overall, Apex Legends is a massive st🐷ep in the right direction for LGBTQ+ representation in vidꦐeo games, especially when there are also trans, non-binary, gay, and lesbian characters in the roster.

5 ಌ Finn McNamara

Life Is Strange 2

Although there was a nod to Arcadia Bay in Life is Strange 2, the game pivots to a very different story direction that follows two brothers on the run from the law after a tragedy, the younger one having supernatural abilities. The series' LGBTQ+ themes are still one of the most important highlights that are just as essential to the plot here.

As fugitives, Sean and Daniel Diaz eventually find refuge with a group working on a weed farm in Northern California. It's there Sean meets Finn McNamara and his friends and can explore 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a more romantic relationship with him. Finn is pansexual and tells Sean "I see people, not gender. It's all good... long as I get some."

4 Iron Bull

Dragon Age: Inquisition

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dragon Age: Inquisition, and the BioWare series as a whole, is known for its LGBTQ+ inclusi🅷vity through its romance options, but it also gave Dragon Age its first pansexual character with Iron Bull. Iron Bull is romanceable for both male and female Inquistor characters, and game writer Patrick Weekes definitively confirmed that Iron Bull is indeed pansexual.

Iron Bull is a massive hunk, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:yet a gentle giant, of the Qunari race and wears an eyepatch, and his voice actor is also famous Hollywood actor Fre🦹ddie Prinze Jr. He's definitely the funnier companion in Inquisition, especially how some of his dialogue is delivered, but if you miss your shot at romancing him, Iron Bull will move onto establishing a romantic connection with another NPC – Dorian.

3 Merrin

Star Wars Jedi Series

It's long been hinted that Merrin is 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a queer character in Star Wars canon ever since she shared her backstory in Jedi: Fallen Order. She seemed to have deeper ro🍃mantic feelings for a fellow Nightsister who died in the massacre on Dathomir and, in the sequel game, she and protagonist Cal Kestis turn their friendship into romance.

Writer Sam Maggs, herself an LGBTQ+ voice in video games, comics, and literature, penned a canon book taking place in between the events of the video games called Star Wars Jedi: Battle Scars, where Merrin's pansexuality was confirmed. It's somewhat disappointing that Jedi: Survivor didn't expand further into this and made it seem like Merrin solely prefers the male♌ gender in a partner.

2 Deadpool

Various Marvel Video Games

One of the most popular pansexual characters of all time is the suited-up Merc with a Mouth, Deadpool. Created for Marvel Comics in 1990, he's had 168澳洲幸运🍬5开奖网:multiple appearances across many🅺 video games, including his very own in 2013, and, of course, is also effortlessly portrayed in live-action by actor Ryan Reynolds, who's out for an adventure with Hugh Jackman's Wolverine in the third film.

Deadpool is one of the best anti-hero comic book characters ever created, and that's an understatement. He's got brilliant humor, 168ꦫ澳洲幸运5开奖网:always breaks the𒅌 fourth wall in clever ways, is filled with hilarious references and comebacks, plus he's got some amazing abilities, like regeneration, and his katana and pistol weapons combo is badass. These are all on full display in 2013's Deadpool from developer High Moon Studios and Marvel's Midnight Suns.
