*In the cozy steam train management game "Locomoto", you can create a gender-neutral animal character, as the character creation menu does not offer any option for picking a gender nor pronouns. Clothing is also not limited by any sort of gender options. During gameplay the game's NPC's do not use any pronouns for your character when speaking to them. When looking in the game's journal you will find many NPC's have various pronouns, with a few being They/Them. | *In the cozy steam train management game "Locomoto", you can create a gender-neutral animal character, as the character creation menu does not offer any option for picking a gender nor pronouns.

*In the dating simulator ''Date Everything!'', players can choose their preferred pronouns (he/him, she/her, or they/them) when creating their character. The game's main premise is that the player receives a pair of magical glasses that anthropomorphizes everyday things, ranging from daily objects to abstract concepts, into datable characters. The chosen pronouns do not restrict which characters the player can date.<ref>{{cite web|title=Non-binary representation in the dating sim "Date everything!"|url=https://checkpointgaming.net/reviews/2025/06/date-everything-review-love-is-in-the-eye-of-the-homeowner/#:~:text=Of%20course%20you%20would%20expect,are%20in%20open%20relationships%2C%20etc.|access-date=24 September 2025|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250924213833/https://checkpointgaming.net/reviews/2025/06/date-everything-review-love-is-in-the-eye-of-the-homeowner/l=english|archive-date=24 September 2025}}</ref> | *In the dating simulator ''Date Everything!'', players can choose their preferred pronouns (he/him, she/her, or they/them) when creating their character.
