Asriel Dreemurr from Undertale

Asriel Dreemurr is the son of Toriel, who passed away before the events of Undertale. Although you won’t recognize him in the beginning, a sadistic, soulless version of Asriel — a mere shadow of his cute, docile younger self — is the first character you meet in the game.

Super Mario Brothers from NES

This year marks the 35th anniversary of the first Super Mario Bros. game on the Nintendo Entertainment System. To mark the occasion, Nintendo is releasing a slew of Mario games, including Super Mario 3D All-Stars and a modern version of its original Game & Watch handheld. Although we’ve provided costume guides for Mario and Luigi already, you’ll notice that their sprites are slightly different compared to their original release, where they wore color-coded overalls and a rust brown shirt instead of the more familiar blue overalls and color-coded undershirts.

Dante DMC 3

Dante from Devil May Cry 3

Dante is a character from the Devil May Cry video game franchise. He is the son of the demon Sparda and human Eva, as well as the younger twin brother of Vergil. Unlike his brother, he embraces his human side more than his demonic side. He works as both a private investigator and paranormal mercenary, devoted to killing evil demons and supernatural forces. He acts as a vigilante, as his motive is to avenge the death of his mother and corruption of his brother. Dante is the main playable character in the games. Place the belt around your waist. If it’s too cold to go shirtless, wear a nude colored top.

Vergil DMC 3

Vergil from Devil May Cry 3

Vergil is a character in the Devil May Cry video game franchise. He is the son of the demon Sparda and human Eva, as well as the older twin brother of Dante. In contrast to his brother, Vergil rejects his humanity in favor of his demonic heritage. He is an apathetic and reserved individual, but his ambition gets the best of him, as he will do anything to usurp the power of his father. This leads him down a dark path, hence his role as the main antagonist of the fifth installment. This outfit in particular is from the third installment.

Rosa from Fortnite

Rosa is a skin that players can use in Fortnite. Her design is based on Dia De Los Muertos, or the day of the dead. It’s a wonderful South American holiday meant to honor those who have passed on. So don’t let her skeletal features scare you! Though the player’s prowess in combat probably should!

To dress as Rosa you’ll want to start with a black wig pulled up in a bun with a red rose clipped in. From there you’ll want a purple undershirt. Teal satin can be glued to the shirt to create the neck piece and puff sleeves. A black and purple corset with a green bow gets you very close to her exact look. A black layered skirt and some purple satin allow you to copy the bottom half of Rosa’s outfit, along with a teal ribbon for the bow at the side. Black lace tights and heeled black boots finish off her clothes while ace paint and black nail polish give you the final details of her look.

Loners from S.T.A.L.K.E.R

Loners from S.T.A.L.K.E.R

Loners are the post-fallout survivors that don’t ascribe to any faction in the game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Set an an alternate history and taking place in the area around Chernobyl, each letter in the title stands for one faction of the society in The Zone. And of course Loners, well, work alone.

Loners have many different looks but they all follow a generally militaristic look. This means that most of the pieces for their costume are Army surplus. A tan tactical vest, tan tactical jacket, tan balaclava, camo pants, and tan combat boots make up the body of the costume. Many Loners also wear goggles and fingerless gloves. Accessories can include a gas mask and fake weapon, though be sure to check the costume weapon guidelines at any event you plan on attending!

Kyoko from River City Girls

Kyoko from River City Girls

While Kyoko (voiced by Kira Buckland) is in detention with her best friend their boyfriends are kidnapped by local criminals. With nobody else to help, the girls take matter in their own hands in the beat-em-up brawler game River City Girls.

Kyoko’s costume is a great choice for closet cosplay. A long ginger wig and red headband with a bow starts off the costume. A blue and white Letterman’s jacket, a white button up shirt, red tie, and grey pleated skirt create her uniform. Her black and white knee-high socks and blue sneakers probably aren’t dress code though!
