10 Times You Came Back From The Dead To Kick Ass In Video Games

4. Revan - Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic

Wolfenstein II The New Colossus
BioWare

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic begins with the protagonist waking up aboard a Republic ship under attack, after which they set off on an epic space-faring journey to topple the evil Darth Malak, the former apprentice of the even more terrifying Darth Revan.

Except, at the end of the game, it's revealed that you are in fact Revan yourself, having been left for dead during an attack on a Republic planet after Malak turned on you.

The Jedi Council then took the opportunity to effectively neutralise Revan by erasing his memories, hence where the beginning of the game comes in.

The player can then choose to either defeat the Sith or take back control from Malak, each option representing quite the significant resurrection arc after almost being blown to smithereens.
