In one of the most lucrative industries today, how to choose the best fonts for video games may seem a strenuous task, but then again so is holding a teenager&#8217;s attention for more than ten minutes. When pairing the plot and graphics with the best fonts for video games, developers gain an edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t let the \u2018back to school\u2019 blues hit you just yet. The multi-billion video games industry has the cure for it: Borderlands, one of the most popular video games, released its third chapter today. And, in one of the most competitive markets out there &#8211; the one that cashes in on your kid\u2019s attention span &#8211; graphics is king. So, you can bet your virtual life on the fact that fonts do make the difference between a flop and hit. That\u2019s why today we\u2019ll take a closer look at the best fonts for video games.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/borderlands.com\/en-US\/\" rel=\"nofollow\"><strong>Borderlands 3 <\/strong><\/a>picks off after Handsome Jack\u2019s death and the twins Troy and Tyreen Calypso are up to no good, setting their wicked eyes on the Vaults beyond planet Pandora. Lilith, a character player in the Borderlands series, recruits the \u201cVault Hunter\u201d (aka you) to stop the Calypso brothers. But that\u2019s about it when it comes to the information about the Borderlands 3 release, we\u2019ll let you save the world and we will just focus on saving your visual identity.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best fonts for video games: what to look for<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Turns out that all those nights and, let\u2019s face it, years of playing on your console didn\u2019t exactly amount to a graphics diploma. Don\u2019t berate yourself though, the skills you gained by leveling up game after game are irreplaceable. But you were probably more focused on killing bad guys than on how the letters looked when annoying chat boxes popped up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, that\u2019s the first clue. When choosing a good font for video games, you have to keep in mind that the setting they\u2019ll appear in must be as little invasive as possible. People want to play the game and get the info they need to level up quick, they don\u2019t want to be forced to freeze the screen just to be able to understand the words coming out of that golem\u2019s mouth. So, legibility vs. time spent reading is your first battle in the war of choosing the best fonts for video games.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best fonts for video games: let you characters do the time traveling, not your fonts<br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The second rule for all you Knights of the Font Table is time conformity. Some fonts go extremely well in video games where the plot is set in medieval times, others have that Doctor Who-ish vibe that steampunk themed video games just love.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just imagine what mixing them up would do to your focus when trying to summon up all your virtual powers to defeat Mordred, Time Lords or, coming back to the video game of the day, those awful Calypso twins from Borderlands 3. So, when you\u2019re trying to find the best fonts for video games, keep in mind that they don\u2019t only have to look cool, but they have to blend in with the story and decor.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best fonts for video games: there are more languages than English, Klingon and Elvish<br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The third rule when choosing the best fonts for video games is to always remember that your audience is international, so the font should look and convey information quickly in more than English. Although it might seem easier to just choose different fonts for different languages, trust us &#8211; and your developers and designers will confirm &#8211; that will mess up your entire aesthetic. Let\u2019s say you have a racing game. Your people chose a font for the video game that blends in with the bolder, bigger one used for the scores displayed at the end of the race. You get the point.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t worry though: if you just keep scrolling down, we\u2019ve put together a list with the best fonts for video games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"501\" height=\"227\" src=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/best-fonts-for-video-games-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/best-fonts-for-video-games-2.png 501w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/best-fonts-for-video-games-2-300x136.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 501px) 100vw, 501px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/NMY_Digital-Sans-Now-ML-Bold-Italic.font\">Digital Sans Now ML Bold Italic<\/a><\/strong> is one of the best fonts for video games and its qualities are clear, just like its characters and lines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"498\" height=\"316\" src=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/best-fonts-for-video-games-copy-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73388\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/best-fonts-for-video-games-copy-1.png 498w, https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/best-fonts-for-video-games-copy-1-300x190.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Very versatile, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatfontis.com\/FF_Moiser.font\"><strong>Moiser<\/strong><\/a> Font is adaptable to most video game themes.
