Abstract

With the continuous development of network technology, secondary games have gradually received widespread attention in the domestic market, and as one of the important components of contemporary youth culture, the design of female characters is not only to meet the aesthetic needs of players, but also carries the multiple values and expectations of game developers and society. In this paper, we will take the game “Original God”, which has attracted much attention in recent years, as an example, and conduct an in-depth discussion on the image of women in contemporary secondary games, with a view to revealing the reasons for the limitation of women’s image in the game and exploring the social and cultural significance and influence behind it.
