Victory pose
A victory pose is a pose assumed by a person to celebrate victory, particularly by athletes and other sportspeople. Victory poses often involve raising the arms in the air.Pre-programmed victory poses by fictional characters in video games have been the subject of controversy, particularly where the victory pose has been regarded as overly sexualized. Strategy first-person shooter Overwatch was particularly by press for its overly sexualized victory poses, leading to certain animations being removed from the game by developers Blizzard.
Role-playing games such as Final Fantasy often have accompanying victory poses after encounters. These snippets of animation are usually played alongside a short music clip, with characters celebrating their win.
