Dynasty Warriors
In Dynasty Warriors 3 and 4, she and her sister Da Qiao were kidnapped by Dong Zhuo, later on to be rescued by both Sun Ce and Zhou Yu and marrying them afterwards.

Her Musou Mode in Dynasty Warriors 5 revolved around her contributions to the Wu Army, much to the anxiety of her husband, Zhou Yu. Xiao Qiao supports and comforts her husband throughout the mode to the fact that Zhou Yu had realized how important his wife was to him. Zhou Yu later on became angry at Cao Cao for trying to seek after Xiao Qiao whilst trying to invade the land, that it became the cause of the Battle of Chi Bi. The ending involves a healthy Zhou Yu living happily together with his wife after the land became in peace.

In Dynasty Warriors 5: Xtreme Legends, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu faced a test to win the hearts of the Two Qiaos, with Zhou Yu stating that fighting for the Qiaos' hearts is a lot easier than confessing love to them. Along with the Two Qiaos, they also faced the other couples of the Three Kingdoms for the Imperial Seal.

In Dynasty Warriors 6, Xiao Qiao no longer has a storyline, but it is claimed that she and Zhou Yu met at Wan Castle in Shi Ting before they got married. This is a reference to the historical circumstances under which Sun Ce and Zhou Yu married the Two Qiaos, in which they attacked Wan Castle, where the Two Qiaos were residing, and conquered it from the tyrannical Liu Xun.

Warriors Orochi
In Warriors Orochi, Xiao Qiao is part of a resistance army along side Sakon Shima and Zhang Jiao. She does not follow Sakon's strategies when Nobunaga Oda confronts them at Kyushu, resulting in her defeat. Afterwords, she joins the Samurai forces. She was seen in the Samurai Ending, where as she tells Nobunaga, Shingen and Kenshin to "stop fighting already", later to be replied with a pat on the head by Nobunaga and Shingen.

In Warriors Orochi 2, she is seen once again with Zhou Yu, returning to the Wu forces. Also in her dream mode, she joins alongside No and Zhen Ji to save the other women (and Cao Pi) from the clutches of Dong Zhuo.

Personality
Xiao Qiao is a childish and cheerful woman who is gutsier than her sister when hopping into action. Not one to fume over the details, she often takes the honest and straightforward path in battle. Although she's a capable fighter, her lack of restraint lands her in trouble and she often needs rescuing. Her snappy tongue can sometimes be blunt and slightly offending, which usually earns her sister's chiding. She adores her husband's attention and tries her hardest to impress him.

Appearance
Throughout Dynasty Warriors 3-5, she wears a long pony tail, and sports pastel color dresses in shades of green and orange, complemented with short pantaloons and boots (or leg warmers in Dynasty Warriors 4). Her paper fans also use the pastel colors that match her outfit.

In Dynasty Warriors 6 she gets new paper fans and appears without her older sister Da Qiao. Instead, Xiao Qiao wears a pink dress with long socks and high-heeled shoes, with flowers as hair accessories, but still sports the pastel tones that was seen in her past incarnations.
