10 Video Game Enemies That Were Totally Out Of Place

3. A Monkey Driving A Backhoe - Yakuza 7: Like A Dragon

The Yakuza franchise may be wonderfully weird in even its most "normal" moments, but the series' rogues' gallery generally hasn't strayed too far from an assortment of generic gangster mooks.

That is, until the latest entry into the series, Yakuza 7: Like A Dragon, put players up against several pieces of construction equipment throughout the game, such as an excavator and a wrecking ball.

Then there's the sub-story where a bowtie-wearing chimpanzee, Clara, commandeers an excavator and attacks the player, triggering surely the most insanely left-field battle in the entire Yakuza saga (so far, at least).

Battering the absolute hell out of a primate-driven excavator sure is something, even for a series that has only a faint grasp on tangible reality as it is. Incredible.
