Many video game characters train excessively to be the best. This training comes with a wide variety of perks, like unbelievable speed, or looking as chiseled as a statue carved from marble. However, looking physically strong is one thing, but being strong is something completely different.
Throughout various franchises, players have met their fair share of sturdy characters that have claimed to possess unnatural levels of power. Some characters may have the strength that allows them to move the earth with their mind, while others contain immense physical strength. However, only a few are strong enough to lift mountains themselves from the earth.
10 Isaac – Golden Sun
Isaac is the most powerful Earth Adept in the Golden Sun franchise. His psynergy training, which gives him the power to manipulate both earth and plant matter, started at the age of 13. This meant that Isaac has had many years to get even stronger during his adventures.
This earth bender may not look physically strong, but his psynergy-based abilities allow him to push objects a distance away from him. Players have never been able to see how far Isaac's powers can go, and therefore it is entirely possible that now at the age of 44, Isaac could lift a mountain.
9 Albert Wesker – Resident Evil
After injecting himself with the infamous T-Virus, which he helped invent, Albert Wesker gifted himself with a wide range of abilities that made him more powerful than the average person. Not only possessing superhuman strength, but speed and regenerative abilities as well, Dr Wesker had succeeded in his experiments and had turned himself into a monster.
The man who claims to no longer be human has presented his strength to players throughout the Resident Evil franchise. He has hurled missiles at the player one-handed, as well as lifting heavy metal off his body when trapped. Albert Wesker is a classic show-off that loves to prove himself and therefore, once hitting his mutated form, a mountain would be easy to lift.
8 Dante – Devil May Cry
Born from a demon and a human, Dante has a phenomenal amount of power brewing inside him. Although he rejects his demonic heritage to focus more on his humanity, Dante cannot deny that without his father's demon genetics, he wouldn't be able to survive for as long as he has.
Dante has the power to take on a more demonic form that increases his abilities; however, even in his human form he is stronger than any man. Examples of the unseen limit of Dante's strength can be seen by fans of the Devil May Cry franchise when the half-demon has blocked horrendous enemies' hits with ease.
7 Starkiller – Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
Trained by the legendary Darth Vader himself, Starkiller is an unrelenting weapon of the Force. Although a clone, Starkiller is argued by fans as being more powerful than the original Galen Marek he was created from. Advancing in his training through flashbacks of the original Galen as well as the influence of Darth Vader, Starkiller became incredibly strong in his use of the Force.
He was especially adept at telekinesis, which allowed the clone to crush TIE-Fighters like aluminum cans. Starkiller's most deadly ability, Force Fury, increases all of his abilities, pushing him even further with his telekinesis to the point where he could easily lift a mountain from the earth.
6 Lilith – Borderlands
As one of six women known as Sirens, Lilith has an incredible amount of power that is fueled through Eridium. As a playable character in the first Borderlands, players are aware of the phase abilities Lilith is capable of pulling off, such as her Phasewalk, which allows her to turn invisible and get closer to the enemy.
In later games, the fan favorite returned with new skills to show. In Borderlands 2, Lilith was able to lift the town of Sanctuary into the sky using her siren abilities. Mountains wouldn't be a challenge for Lilith, as in Borderlands 3 she took her abilities one step further, stopping a moon in its tracks to save the entirety of Pandora.
5 Bayonetta
Similar to Dante, Bayonetta was created through the forbidden union of a witch and a Lumen sage. As one of the two remaining Umbra Witches, an ancient order that practiced the dark arts, it is important for Bayonetta to survive. Though, this comes easily for someone with her amount of power.
Due to her connection to these dark arts, Bayonetta has a variety of abilities that make her all-powerful, not to mention her contracts with demonic creatures. Even without her monstrous allies, Bayonetta has a superhuman amount of strength, being able to easily overpower large enemies as well as demolish buildings with her heeled boots.
4 Kratos – God Of War
Kratos, also known as the Ghost of Sparta, has had quite the difficult life within the God Of War franchise. After being tricked by the war god Ares to murder his own family, Kratos set off on a quest for vengeance.
The Ghost of Sparta has defeated a plentiful amount of gods and other creatures from both Greek and Norse mythology, expressing his unnatural strength. After revealing that he himself is a demigod and a son of Zeus, it is of no surprise to players how easily Kratos can take on his other half-siblings.
3 Asura – Asura's Wrath
Another demigod that is seeking revenge on the other demigods, Asura's strength also increases with his rage. Asura's rage has been building for vengeance since the murder of his wife and the theft of his daughter.
Out of all of his gifts, Asura's strength is the most noticeable ability that he uses to defeat his foes in this beat-'em-up title. Asura's punches can shake the earths core and cause ripples to form across his foes, as well as him being seen to lift and throw The Gohma, a humongous dark entity, with ease.
2 Regigigas – Pokemon
Also known as the colossal Pokemon, Regigigas is a legendary Pokemon that was first seen in the title Pokemon Platinum, where players could capture this immensely strong unit. Standing at almost 4 meters according to Sinnoh legend, Regigigas pulled landmasses together using only rope in order to create the continent of Hisui.
Since those legendary times, Regigigas has retired itself to a quieter life, where players can encounter it to recruit onto their team for battles. In these Pokedex entries, Regigigas is mentioned that it used to make Pokemon out of rock or ice in its own image.
1 Din – The Legend of Zelda
The Goddess of Power and one of the three key goddesses that create the Triforce of Courage, Din is a powerful force in The Legend of Zelda. She is also one of the three golden goddesses that supposedly created the world of Hyrule, and therefore she has the immense power to not only lift mountains, but form them.
According to the Deku Tree in The Ocarina of Time, Din, cultivated the land of Hyrule with her “strong flaming arms.” She is commonly associated with earth, fire, and mountains, which is why there is a volcano named after her, Eldin.
