Dynasty Warriors
In Dynasty Warriors 6, Zhuge Liang is portrayed as an anti-hero in contrast to Liu Bei's heroism. While Liu Bei's virtue causes him to miss several opportunities to gain power because they are dishonorable, Zhuge Liang has no such qualms and uses all opportunities that are available to strengthen Liu Bei's position, drawing the ire of Zhang Fei after Guan Yu's death. When confronted by Liu Bei, who informs Zhuge Liang of the comparisons being made between him and Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang reveals that he is willing to bear the scorn of others by using ruthless tactics, so long as that scorn is not directed at the land's beloved hero, Liu Bei. His conversation with Pang Tong reveals that he most likely used Liu Bei as a means of effectively uniting the land. After their last confrontation with Wei, Zhuge Liang succumbs to an illness that he stubbornly ignored to treat during his plans. However, he is seen recovering thanks to proper rest and is happily visited by Liu Bei.

Warriors Orochi
In Warriors Orochi 2, Zhuge Liang is not present with Shu until the Battle of Odani Castle. After the castle is taken by Lu Xun and Taigong Wang, Da Ji sends Himiko off to run away. When she almost reaches the escape point, Zhuge Liang appears with Yue Ying to prevent her escape. After the Battle of Koshi Castle, Zhuge Liang remarks to Taigong Wang about his risky tactics in allowing Da Ji and Himiko to escape after they caught the two.

Kessen
Zhuge Liang appears as one of Shu's strategists in Kessen II. He is an adept sorcerer who uses astrology to foretell the future. Like the novel, he agreed to join Liu Bei during his third visit. However, Zhuge Liang declines Liu Bei's offers in his previous visits, stating that he has no interest in restoring the Han empire. Once he hears that Liu Bei's real desire is to save Diao Chan, he admires the lord and agrees to serve him. From then on, he acts as a political adviser and battle strategist, occasionally bringing in new generals to join Shu.

Not long after he joined, Zhang Fei confesses to his older brother that he doesn't trust the magician. In response, Zhuge Liang attempts to assassinate Cao Cao but only succeeded in knocking off his helmet. He brings it to Liu Bei to prove his loyalty. He distinguished himself as a powerful magician when he cast a fire spell on Cao Cao's fleet at Chi Bi. When Shu heard rumors of Diao Chan's death, a jealous Himiko tries to convince Zhuge Liang to join her. In the process, she leaks out that the dancer is still alive. After he refuses her offer, he reports his findings to Liu Bei. In Wei's epilogue, he leads the final resistance against Cao Cao with Shu's remaining generals.

Quotes

 * "The stars are in great disorder, making it extremely difficult to predict the future... However, that bright, shining star up there is a light of hope. Before it was a faint light, but now it has gained strength from the surrounding stars and is shining brightly. This is my lord's star."
 * Zhuge Liang; Kessen II

Gameplay
In Dynasty Warriors 6, Zhuge Liang's attacks focus more on magic as a good majority of his attacks are controlled gusts of wind created by his fan. Aside from wind, he can also shoot laser beams and can create a miniature lightning storm in his musou. One of his most formidable attacks is his Special, which has the power to emulate the effects and damage of a fire attack. When properly used, he can severely weaken a group of nearby enemy officers and easily take them out with a few hits. Some of his attacks available for purchase in his Skill Tree, namely Flame and Hellfire, increase the damage of his attack. Hellfire, which greatly increases the attack of the Tome Attack, is exclusive to Zhuge Liang, making him have the deadliest Fire attack in terms of attack. His moveset usually leaves his back opened so players must take some caution whilst charging into a crowd of enemies.
