Strongest Evil Gods In Games, Ranked By Raw Power

Why defeat a king when you can take down a god?

Many games strive to be unabashed power fantasies, and nothing makes you feel more powerful than smacking mortality into a deity. FromSoftware's RPGs consistently involve cosmic horrors, and the likes of Queen Marika and the Moon Presence aren't in the conversation for the strongest gods in gaming. Yeah, this article is filled with characters whose raw power breaks any scale.

Due to the nature of gaming, a disconnect often exists between lore and gameplay, allowing ultra-powerful planet-destroyers to be ultimately defeated by a warrior with a sword and health potions. That's just the way things tend to play out, but that doesn't mean these evil gods aren't OP beyond belief. They definitely are.

I know comparing characters from universes with different rules is inherently flawed, but we can still have fun with this.

Although technically described as a "Titan" rather than a god, WoW's Sargeras very much fits the archetype in every sense of the word. Titans basically act as gods of order, although this particular one seems to be a bigger fan of chaos, something he achieves through his Burning Legion. As a former Champion of the Pantheon, Sargeras was initially meant to act as creation's defender, and he turned his back on his duty out of hatred for the Old Gods and the threat posed by the Void Lords.

The Void Lords are definitely stronger than Sargeras, as their power is essentially limitless in their realm. However, they cannot exist in physical reality.

Even though a (weak) argument could be made that he is chaotic good, Sargeras ultimately operates on nihilism on a cosmic scale. To fight back the Void Lords' corruption, his solution is to wipe out all life in the universe, using his Burning Legion to reduce worlds to cinder. Although his power is purely physical, he reaches the absolute peak of that level, only being surpassed by a handful of fictional beings.

Remember the part about there being "a disconnect...between lore and gameplay"? Well, Final Fantasy's Bhunivelze is the second-worst offender, as Lightning Returns' stagger system can downright trivialize the fight by turning this universe creator into a helpless punching bag. Nevertheless, lore-wise, Bhunivelze is arguably the strongest evil god in a franchise that has no shortage of competitors.
