160 video games that have snow in them

Features
By GamesRadar Staff published 1 March 2018

As the UK enters gridlock from the 'Beast from the East', we present the definitive A-Z of video game blizzards, avalanches and pixels who tried their best to look chilly

Sled Storm

PSone snow looks like squashed Minecraft.

Super Mario Ball/Mario Pinball Land

Anyone expecting a black tie affair will be sorely disappointed in this Ball. It's just a squashed-up Mario. You can still dance on him.

Star Wars: Battlefront

It's getting Hoth in here, so put on all your clothes (and you thought all the good jokes were used up by now, didn't you? Ha!)

Latest Videos From
Watch full video here:

Star Wars Battlefront (original game)

I'm getting so Hoth, I'm gonna put more clothes on.

Snowboard Kids

Hopefully these children are being supervised by a responsible adult.

  • Astarian looking pensive with his hand resting on his chin in Baldur's Gate 3 The 25 best Steam games to play in 2026

Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing

Does the huge snowflake motif make up for the relative lack of snow? Who cares?

Sonic the Hedgehog 3

As previously stated, actual hedgehogs hibernate during winter so it's unlikely this would happen in real life.

South Park: The Stick of Truth

What they don't tell you is that South Park is always snowy due to a recent nuclear winter. Kinda puts the whole show into perspective.

Spyro 2

If Spyro was ever buried alive by an avalanche, he could breathe fire to melt the snow and escape. This is just one advantage of being a dragon.

SSX

Without the snow its just boarding.

SSX 3

Most snowboarding type games feature snow of some kind.

Star Wars Battlefront 2

You've probably heard the story about Atari burying 700,00 unsold game cartridges in the desert, and in 2076 they'll be saying the same of loot boxes on Hoth.

Star Wars: Episode 1 Racer

The Force is probably strong with this snow.

Steep

Steep has more powder than a series of Narcos and might win the crown for 'best snow ever' on account of being one of the most recent games on this list (2016).

Super Mario 64

Mario! On a penguin! In the snow! Brilliant!

Super Mario Galaxy 2

Mario! Rolling a giant snowball! In the snow! Brilliant!

Super Mario Odyssey

The Snow Kingdom might not have the most realistic effects ever, but you can mind control an anthropomorphic arctic cloud with power breath, so there is that.

Super Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back

If Han Solo was captioning this picture he would probably say something like 'And I thought this snow smelt bad on the outside'.

The Division

After concluding their lawsuit with Ed Sheeran's lawyers, Ubisoft's next open-world game will be called The Multiplication. Perhaps.

The Legend of Zelda: The Breath of the Wild

Nothing a Snowquill Tunic and Spicy Fruit and Mushroom Mix meal can't solve.

The Long Dark

We like our snow as we like our men. Long, dark and handsome.

The Thing

A great film. Lots of snow. The game was OK. It also featured lots of snow.

Timesplitters 2

This level pays homage to the Dam level in GoldenEye on N64. Thanks to the advancement of graphic technology, there is much more snow in the TimeSplitters level.

ToeJam & Earl 3: Mission to Earth

And judging by those clouds it looks like there's more snow on the way.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5

Huh so bugs can live in snow.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Possibly the best narrative-driven snow in gaming.
