The Greatest Animal Buddies in Video Games

October 14, 2020 by Red Stewart

Red Stewart presents the best animal buddies in video games…

Video games have given us some of the best companions you could hope for- knowing a strong AI has got your back during the heat of the moment can be as calming as it is exciting. This gets all the more fascinating when that buddy isn’t a human or monster but an animal!

That’s right, many animals go uncredited despite playing an integral role. Well, that ends today. From the iconic green dinosaur Yoshi to man’s best friend and even a giant parrot, here is Flickering Myth’s take on five of the best animal buddies in gaming…

Who are your favourite animal pals in video games? Let us know in the video comments, or on our social channels @flickeringmyth, and be sure to subscribe to us on YouTube for more gaming and geek-related content.
