Line 288:
* [[Zone of the Enders]] has Nohman, who fancies himself as an agent of the universe's natural will towards its own destruction. Although he does seem to enjoy it just a little too much.
* ''[[Dwarf Fortress]]''-At the moment, pretty much all you can do in Adventure mode is wipe out all the world's sentient life (The only reason its not ''all'' life is because animals seem to respawn). For extra fun, people often try to kill everyone with a [[Self-Imposed Challenge]] or two.
* Dark Star/Dark Bowser in the final stages of ''[[Mario and Luigi Bowsers Inside Story|Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. He doesn't have a reason, he just wants to destroy the Mushroom Kingdom and likely universe because he's [[Made of Evil]].
** ''Soon this kingdom will vanish along with all who dwell within. And you, too, will sleep eternally in the dark power's embrace!''
* Both the Primagen and Oblivion in the ''[[Turok (series)|Turok]]'' series.
* The Darkspawn in ''[[Dragon Age]]'' were pretty much born to destroy the world of Thedas and everybody on it. The only reason they haven't is because they are also perfectly fine with attacking each other if there are no other victims. They are also compelled to seek out the Old Gods, an endeavor that usually takes centuries. Sadly, the Old Gods become tainted by the Darkspawn and become insane Archdemons that are also Omnicidal. The Archdemons are able to unite the Darkspawn and launch campaigns to wipe out Thedas known as Blights.
* {{spoiler|Kerghan}} from ''[[Arcanum: ofOf Steamworks and Magick Obscura]]'' combines this with [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]], {{spoiler|seeing death as the natural state of existence, life as an abomination, and his plan to bring about the extinction of all beings as an act of mercy.}}
** The scary part? {{spoiler|Kerghan is ''right''.}}
* Darth Nihilus of ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]] II: The Sith Lords''. At some point in the past, he began consuming the lives of others for his nourishment by draining them through the Force. By the time the player character encounters him, he has become, essentially, the [[Anthropomorphic Personification]] of hunger, has already consumed all life on several inhabited planets, and, if left unchecked, will soon do the same to the entire galaxy...and beyond.
Line 318:
* [[Big Bad|Shao Kahn]] from ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'': Wants to merge all realms into Outworld and bring about Armageddon.
** Onaga and Shinnok also follow this trope.
* The [[A Nazi by Any Other Name|Thalmor]] in ''[[The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim]]'' are attempting to kill off everyone else in Tamriel because they believe it will allow them to [[Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence|become gods]].
* The Xenon in the ''[[X (video game)|X-Universe]]'' started out as [[Terraform|terraforming]] drones. After a badly coded software update, [[AI Is a Crapshoot|they went haywire]] and now attempt to terraform all biological life out of existence.
* In ''[[Hyperdimension Neptunia]]'', Arfoire seeks to destroy the entire world by spreading [[Digital Piracy Is Evil|piracy throughout the entire world.]] From there, she can get her godhood back.
