* Doctor Thomas Elliot / Hush in ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamCity''. In the comics, he made himself look like Bruce Wayne through MagicPlasticSurgery. In the game, he does the same thing...by murdering people, carving off parts of their faces, and replacing his own face with the assembled pieces.
* In ''VideoGame/DeadByDaylight'', if [[Film/TheTexasChainsawMassacre Leatherface]] sacrificed one of the original four survivors twenty-five times, he unlocked a cosmetic of their stitched up face to wear. These cosmetics were removed because of complaints that him wearing Claudette's face amounted to "blackface". Another killer, the Unknown, has cosmetic skins where it wears the head and skin of some of its victims, such as a grandmother or a cheerleader, though horribly stretched over the Unknown's decidedly non-human frame.
* ''VideoGame/FallenLondon'' has the Snuffers, {{Humanoid Abomination}}s which will physically tear peoples' faces off (with naturally fatal results) and wear them like masks, which fit perfectly despite the fact a mask-less snuffer looks less like a human and more like an insectoid horror. Those of a more subtle inclination can, with the help of special ointments, cut a neat line along the edge of a person's face, peel it off non-fatally, and even put it back in place again afterwards with only faint telltale signs. Being sapient, some have particular tastes, and a few have been known to piece whole faces together out of bits of others simply to experiment. They also eat their victims, at least when they aren't out devouring candles (hence the name, they "snuff" candles). They've become quite the problem in London, to the point wearing masks in the local prison is mandatory to avoid unwanted face-ripping.
* The video game ''VideoGame/HomeSafetyHotline'' features a creature called a mirror-nymph, which uses the mirror it carries to steal away the victim's face (or ability to recognize their face; the wording of the database is somewhat ambiguous). Luckily, one may reacquire their likeness by catching the nymph and smashing its mirror with an iron rod.

* A popular (yet technically incomplete) ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' mod called "Morph" allows the player to shapeshift into any mobs they killed.
* ''VideoGame/MortalKombatX'' plays this trope in [[NightmareFuel a very unsettling way]]: one of [[BigBad Shinnok]]'s Brutalities involves him using his power-stealing move on the opponent while using his [[DittoFighter "Impostor"]] variation. Thing is, it tears off the face from the opponent's head and puts it over Shinnok's face as a mask.
* The plot of ''VideoGame/{{Miitopia}}'' kicks off with the Dark Lord stealing Miis' faces to build an army of demons to help him spread chaos all over Miitopia. It's explained later on that the monsters are normally quite docile, and only attack because the Dark Lord uses the stolen faces to control them.
** This gets continued in ''[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U]]'' with the Fighting Mii team, who are described as stealing your Miis' faces. This is further reinforced by the fact that, unlike the playable Mii Fighters, these ones [[PerpetualExpression never change facial expressions]], even when getting kicked about.
* Alex Mercer from ''VideoGame/{{Prototype}}'' eats people and uses this so often he starts [[BodySurf body surfing]].
* The [[MeaningfulName Change]][[NonIndicativeName lings]] in ''VideoGame/SpaceStation13'' are this.

Normally, Spy is a MasterOfDisguise and uses a kit to manually and gradually disguise himself as an enemy, ideally to precede a BackStab with his usual ButterflyKnife.
