Mulan: Revelations (2015) // Dark Horse Comics
Though the future boasts endless technological wonders, only a very few can afford access to them. As a new virus rages through the rich and poor, threatening all of humanity, a warrior is awakened to stop the evil puppeteers behind it all! Centuries after her ancestor and namesake fought for China, a new Mulan has been chosen by the ancient Chinese immortals in a final battle for the world!

So this seems pretty amazing, and what I really like is that not only is the Mulan from Ancient China treated as a serious character who goes into battle ready and doesn’t have to stay looking pretty – but her cyberpunk counterpart looks pretty amazing too:

The game Dreamfall Chapters have the best female cast ever existed:
In this games we meet women of all ages and types of apperiances without begins similar “sexy” type. I recommend this game for all gamers, who love vivid characters and dramatic stories.
If nothing else, this lineup showcases how you incorporating a variety of looks and costume designs for a well populated female cast allows you show each character as a unique personality and background.
Now if only we could get more recognition for this outside of adventure games and RPGs and into more mainstream action titles.

Someone please build a game around this concept. I really, really, really, REALLY want to play it.

Battleborn is currently available as an open beta on Playstation 4 – and while there’s still issues with some of the designs it is kind of amazing to see a game released with this kind of actual variety in female characters. Particularly since every one of them is given the same level of personality as the guys.
Now if we can just get Ambra to get something that’s more priestess robes and less novelty cocktail dress. She is a lot more tolerable as an exception though rather certain other games where it’s the standard and pat themselves on the back for having a couple who are different.

(edit: Shayne is included here largely due to the game’s use of the female pronoun, however the concept artist encourages people to feel welcome to embrace alternative interpretations of Shayne’s gender. h/t: @makorutledgebuttavenger)
