Eye-Obscuring Hat / Video Games


 * Bobbery from  Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door  wears his hat in such a way to obscure one of his eyes. Vivian and her sisters also use this trope.
 * Hazama/Yuuki Terumi from  BlazBlue  often tilts his hat. Most of the characters (and audience) can tell he's up to no good thanks to this.
 * In  Borderlands 2, one of the heads available for Gaige the Mechromancer is a newsboy cap (appropriately titled "Read All About It"), the peak of which hides her eyes (when viewing the character model on the title screen, either variant can occur depending on the angle her head is positioned).
 * Flint from  Mother 3  has a cowboy hat that achieves this. Turns out, he's bald.
 * In  Team Fortress 2, the Soldier has a helmet as his default headwear, and it was tilted in a way that his eyes aren't visible. While there are many hats the soldier can wear that can show his eyes, there are also other hats that also obscure them.
 * Dawn of War :
 * The Commissar is shown like this, all you see of his face is his nose, grim-set mouth and massive chin.
 * The cover art for Commissar Ciaphas Cain (HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!), drawn in the style of overblown propaganda posters, often shows him like this, again emphasizing his Lantern Jaw of Justice.
 * In  Pokémon , Red, Hilbert, and Hilda invoke this trope in their sprite animations.
 * Haken Browning of  Endless Frontier  manages to pull this off when he's depressed.
 * Capcom artist Edayan seems to always have at least one character like this, as Roberto Miura from  Rival Schools  and Cracker Jack from  Street Fighter EX  have their eyes perpetually covered by their hats.
 * Depending On The Artist, Cun-Cun's cap in Cun-Cun & Santi sometimes acts as this, depending on the angle hes seen from or the artwork in question.
 * Dark Souls  has the aptly-named "Big Hat Logan". You can even wear his hat yourself, and on several character models it will surround the player's head entirely. The item description deconstructs the trope by saying that Logan wore it out of shyness and fear, rather than out of any magical benefits it gave.
 * Concept art of The Batter from  OFF  shows that his only visible facial feature is his mouth, despite his in-game sprite displaying eyes.
 * SNK poster boy Terry Bogard zig-zags this. There is plenty of official art with his eyes clearly visible underneath his hat, but all of his game sprites have said hat obscuring them. Even when he ditches the hat in  Garou, you can't see his eyes due to his hair.
 * Dust in  Dust: An Elysian Tail  wears a veiled hat covering much of his face through most of the game. Considering his tragic backstory, this may overlap with Hidden Eyes. Fidget mercilessly Lampshades this in a conversation early in the game. She's amazed he can see anything in front of him with his hat in the way.
 * An update to  The Walking Dead  Season 2 edited a cutscene so that the brim of Clementine's baseball cap obscures her eyes should she choose to blackmail Rebecca in Episode 1/6.
 * Kain Highwind of  Final Fantasy IV  has his Dragoon helmet casting an impenetrable shadow over his eyes. More noticeable in  Dissidia Final Fantasy  due to the top-down spritework/low-res 3D models of his home game. His Holy Dragoon outfit lacks the helmet, though.
 * Blank from  Final Fantasy IX  wears a peculiar headwrap that involves a  leather belt  obscuring his eyes, complete with buckle. One wonders how he can see to do anything.
 * Carmen Sandiego's appearance tends to change Depending on the Artist, but one thing that stays constant is that she always has at least one eye (sometimes both) hidden by her hat.
 * Kingdom Hearts:
 * A variation in  Kingdom Hearts II . In Space Paranoids, Sora wears armor that includes a large helmet that covers the top half of his eyes, just barely averting Blindfolded Vision. Anyone taller than his 5'7 feet height (such as Tron) cannot see his eyes as a result.
 * In  Kingdom Hearts χ, Brain's hat leaves his eyes hidden in shadow on his in-game model, adding to his shifty, rule-breaking persona. Averted in his official art, which shows his eyes.
 * Pretty much any character wearing a hat in  Hotline Miami  has their eyes hidden
