#10: Holly Wolf

When she isn’t doing shoots for Playboy or streaming on her Twitch channel, Holly Wolf puts on some spectacular cosplays. While she has done a variety of cosplays of anime and comic book characters, some of Wolf’s best work comes from the video game cosplays. On top of the common Tifa Lockhart and Cammy cosplays, she’s done some pretty cute swimsuit cosplays of Link from “The Legend of Zelda” and Rikku from “Final Fantasy X.” She’s also one of the few who look a lot like Zelda from her recent appearance in “Breath of the Wild.” Stunning work, Holly!

#9: Riki LeCotey, aka “Riddle”

Riki LeCotey has done a lot of Disney cosplays, but she’s also done just as many video game cosplays. She more than earns a spot on our list, and not just because she’s Canadian. Throughout her career, LeCotey has cosplayed as Linkle from “Hyrule Warriors,” Ashe from the ever-so popular “League of Legends,” Elizabeth from “Persona 3,” Kasumi from the “Dead or Alive” and “Ninja Gaiden” games, and Tira from the “Soulcalibur” series. Even if cosplay isn’t your thing, her Instagram is still worth checking out. She posts lots of pictures of squirrels!

#8: DJtouhou

He may not be as well-known as some of the other cosplayers, but this Utah resident deserves some recognition. DJtouhou is one of the most hardcore Nintendo fans you’ll meet, and it’s especially evident by the characters he cosplays. Recently, he and his sister dressed as Pit and Palutena from the “Kid Icarus” series, and they even got to meet a pair of Ice Climber cosplayers for a quick “Smash Bros.” pic! Did we mention he also pulls off a good Link? Oh, but we can’t forget about his best cosplay - Rosalina from the “Super Mario” franchise! You look glamorous, dude!

#7: Moderately Okay Cosplay

Despite his cosplay nickname, John (aka “Moderately Okay Cosplay”) has some of the most impressive work we’ve ever seen. The man is a total Square Enix and Capcom fan, and the passion is evident! A few of his Square Enix cosplays include Axel from the “Kingdom Hearts” series and multiple “Final Fantasy characters, most notably Cloud Strife. He’s also done some really cool shoots as “Resident Evil’s” Leon Kennedy. John, you’re more than moderately okay. You’re a freakin’ rock star when it comes to cosplay!

Stella Chuu is a professional cosplayer who also does some streaming in her spare time. Over the years, she’s cosplayed as many popular video game characters, such as Tharja from “Fire Emblem,” Yuffie from “Final Fantasy VII,” and various “Overwatch” fan favorites. She’s also done some occasional cosplays of Sakura from “Street Fighter” and Alisa from “Tekken.” Although, one of her most interesting cosplays is of Valus from “Shadow of the Colossus.” Who knew you could turn something that weird-looking into a cute cosplay? That Stella Chuu... always thinkin’...

#5: Maul Cosplay

Some video game characters can be really hard to pull off, often because of how much makeup it requires. However, that doesn’t stop Ben (aka “Maul Cosplay”). Over the span of his career, Ben has cosplayed as an assortment of gritty action heroes in video games. This professional stuntman has cosplayed as Joel from “The Last of Us,” Big Boss of “Metal Gear Solid,” “Overwatch’s” Soldier 76, and even Dad of War Kratos. However, his most famous and popular cosplay is Geralt of Rivia from the “Witcher” series, and he isn’t afraid of getting goofy with it!

This handsome hunk of a man is Leon Chiro, and he is your number one best boy! [show banana picture] Well... maybe… In addition to a few anime and Disney characters, Chiro has pulled off an assortment of cosplays based on gaming’s hottest dudes! He’s done Dante from “Devil May Cry,” McCree from “Overwatch,” and “Uncharted’s” wisecracking psychopath, Nathan Drake. He’s also clearly a fan of “Final Fantasy,” dressing as Sephiroth, Gladiolus, and Ardyn Izunia. The guy really knows how to pull off a character’s look, and his YouTube videos certainly sell his performance.

#3: Jessica Nigri

She’s sweet, she’s sexy, and she’s one of the most fun cosplayers to follow. Jessica Nigri is one of the most famous cosplayers on this list.
