MCM Comic Con cosplayers never fail to amaze me with their outfits, and hopefully next year my inspiration manifests into my own weekend pass
Cosplay is still a bit of an unknown world to me, but it's one I'd love to be more involved with. I've only ever cosplayed once, really—aside from the odd Halloween costume which I know doesn't really count—but that doesn't mean I don't try to stay as in the loop as possible. I've always been more of a lurker, spending hours scrolling through social media admiring everyone's commitment to their favourite characters, and I am constantly impressed by the creativity the cosplay community showcases.
Welcome to Character Select, a weekly column where PC Gamer takes a look at the art and cosplay created by you. Each week, I'll highlight a few of my favourite pieces, spotlight and interview creators and artists, or generally just chew your ear off about the talents of the gaming community.
It's been a big weekend for all sorts of cosplayers with MCM ComicCon and EGX in London, and the turnout of people rocking up dressed in their nerdiest best has not disappointed. So, instead of saving all of my favourites to a folder I'll inevitably visit once in a blue moon, trying to convince myself I'll sink more time into cosplay one of these days, I thought I'd share them with you.

I've seen a few Kojima cosplays across the last few months, but none of them outside of the comfort of the model's house. I'd be lying if I said this incredible cosplay didn't make me do a double take when Midas initially shared the photo. Sometimes you can't help but applaud someone for their commitment to the bit.

I also wanted to give a special shoutout to anyone who walks the hallowed convention halls of Comic Con/EGX in any sort of power armour, or generally armoured outfit for that matter. As soon as the temperature falls in the UK we love to pump the
