List of crossovers in video games
Crossovers in video games occur when otherwise separated fictional characters, stories, settings, universes or media in a video game meet and interact with each other. These may exist as a gimmick if two separate games in question are developed by the same company. Otherwise, they may exist as a gag from a rival company.
The following is a list of games in which crossovers appear in either the form of a cameo of any kind, a guest character, or the theme of "crossover" in general in a video game itself.
First and second-party crossovers
This list includes crossovers and cameos of characters from video games owned by one company and close affiliates. These can range from a character simply appearing as a playable character or boss in the game, as a special guest character, or a major crossover where two or more franchises encounter.
