Unsurprisingly, Lara Croft tops the sexiest female list with a search volume of 169,100. The strong-willed protagonist is admired throughout the gaming community, so much so that you will often see her being frequently cosplayed at conventions.
Samus Aran, from The Metroid Series, ranks second with a search rate of 112,000. The galactic bounty-hunter is one of the oldest game characters, first introduced in 1986, as we still have the hots for her over 30 years later!
Jill Valentine, from The Resident Evil Series, is the third sexiest female game character with 120,400 searches. The strong female lead is often cosplayed at conventions, alongside Lara Croft.|

Link, from The Legend of Zelda Series, ranks first with a search rate of 54,800 over the last year. The latest installment allowed gamers to play the young adult version of Link (a simple cosplay to recreate for conventions) in his fight to save the Kingdom of Hyrule!
Geralt of Rivia, from The Witchers Series, comes in second with 4,400 searches. Thanks to the Netflix original series whereby Henry Cavill plays Geralt as the lead, it’s no surprise that this heartthrob appears in the top three.
Taking the third spot is Master Chief Petty Officer John-117, from The Halo Series, with over 3,000 searches. This protagonist is a supersoldier, and who doesn’t love a fearless soldier? He’s adored by many fans, despite being rarely seen without his green coloured armour and helmet.

NODWIN Gaming Announces Strategic Partnership with Exceed Entertainment for NH7 Weekender
Reading Time: 2 minutes
The happiest music festival, NH7 Weekender, is back, and NODWIN Gaming, a leader in new-age youth entertainment, gaming, and e-sports, has announced a strategic partnership with Exceed Entertainment to lead sponsorship led monetization for the upcoming edition of the longest-running multi-genre music festival in India.
For more than 15 years, NH7 Weekender has built a powerful cultural legacy, becoming a definitive space for music discovery, youth expression, and unforgettable shared moments. NODWIN Gaming acquired the NH7 Weekender music festival and other intellectual properties from OML Entertainment in September 2021, marking a significant strategic move that deepened its footprint in live entertainment, music, comedy, and gaming. Under NODWIN’s stewardship, NH7 Weekender continues to thrive alongside youth-focused experiential IPs such as Comic Con India and DreamHack, strengthening the company’s position in multi-genre youth entertainment across India.
As NH7 Weekender prepares for its next edition, NODWIN continues to lead festival programming, creative direction, production, and long-term vision. Exceed Entertainment will focus solely on sponsorship sales, brand partnerships, and commercial expansion, enabling brands to tap into NH7’s highly engaged and culturally influential youth audience.
The partnership is rooted in shared values of youth culture, creativity, and brand-first experience design. Together, NODWIN Gaming and Exceed Entertainment bring complementary strengths, that is NODWIN’s expertise in large-scale live IPs like NH7 Weekender, Comic Con India, and DreamHack, and Exceed’s deep network in celebrity management, influencer programming, and experiential brand partnerships. This synergy enables richer sponsor-driven activations, curated talent integrations, and innovative monetization models that blend music, gaming, and pop culture, offering brands and audiences a more immersive, culturally resonant festival experience.
“NH7 Weekender has always been about music, culture, and the joy of shared experiences. With Exceed Entertainment managing sponsorship monetization, we look forward to unlocking new brand partnerships while we continue to build the authentic, high-energy festival experience our fans love.” Akshat Rathee, Co-Founder & Managing Director, NODWIN Gaming
“At Exceed, we don’t just follow the curve, we chart the course. Partnering with NODWIN Gaming on NH7 Weekender is not about another transaction; it’s about pioneering the next evolution of India’s live experience economy. The aim is to be laser-focused on bringing unprecedented brand partnerships and unique commercial monetization blueprints to this iconic IP. We will join the dots and unlock revenue streams for Weekender like we always do” Afsar Zaidi, Founder, Exceed Entertainment
