The Best X-Ray Vision Video Games
We take a look at some of the best video games featuring some all-seeing heroes…
Rise Of The Tomb Raider
Lara uses her Survival Instincts to get out of all sorts of Siberian scrapes. Need a life-saving snack? Click the stick to illuminate a herd of deer. Want to clear out an enemy camp without raising an alarm? Lara’s X-ray sense can help you plan a stealthy ambush.
Hitman: Absolution
This guy can use Instinct to spot enemies through walls and employ the ability to throw guards off his sociopathic scent. Instinct is equally useful for identifying homicidal opportunities, for example a disco ball which is ready to fall on a sleazy nightclub owner.
Horizon: Zero Dawn
Aloy can thank her Focus for her robot-peeping powers of perception. The little sci-fi doodad is an AR device that allows Aloy to spot her mechanical dinosaur foes through solid objects. The accessory can even track predicted patrol routes, which saves Aloy when she is clearing out enemy encampments.
Batman: Arkham Knight
The Dark Knight’s Detective Vision gets a workout in Rocksteady’s trilogy caper. During the Perfect Crime side-quest, Batman scans a series of mutilated corpses, and his X-ray sight is so effective, it can swap between examining flesh wounds and zeroing in on bone damage.
The Last Of Us
Joel uses a kind of echolocation in Naughty Dog’s dystopian classic, which is more of a Listen mode rather than an X-ray mode, but it still kind of counts. He can still see Clickers through walls, and be it Infected-spotting ears or eyes, Joel’s power is handy.
Ghost Recon: Future Soldier
Tom Clancy’s upper-soldiers are so advanced that their X-ray visors are among their simpler pieces of kit. This is a game where you can command a huge robot dog, rock Predator-aping camouflage and pull off obscenely badass sync shots. However, seeing through walls is great when breaching terrorist strongholds.
Sniper Elite 4
Shooting virtual Nazis is all good and well, but sniping Hitler’s henchmen is even better. Watch your bullet smash their cartilage into shards courtesy of Sniper Elite 4’s X-ray kills.
Dishonoured
Arkane’s assassin/pro Skeletor cosplayer has many tricks up his sleeve, but Dark Vision is probably Corvo’s most useful power. Not only can Attano’s take on X-ray vision spot enemies through walls, once fully upgraded it even shows your foes’ sightlines.
Mortal Kombat
Not only does this gory beat-‘em-up reboot have zero respect for chiropractic work, it revels in showing shattering bones and rupturing spleens with its headline X-ray moves.
