Mason is unlikely to have trouble remembering these numbers, as he stacks up an impressive $106,905 per year as an Intelligence Analyst for the CIA. In fourth place is Call of Duty veteran and fan favorite, Alex Mason. Having graduated at 17 with a doctorate in Virology, Wesker originally began his training with Umbrella Pharmaceuticals and was later transferred to the Arklay Laboratory as a senior researcher working on the T-Virus project, following the disbanding of his training school.

In third place is Resident Evil’s Albert Wesker, who would earn a salary of $117,557 per year as a virologist. Snake, who boasts an impressive military career, was initially inducted into the Green Berets during his teenage years before later joining Big Boss’ special forces unit, FOXHOUND, meaning he would be substantially compensated for his acquired specialist skills. In at second place is Metal Gear Solid’s eye-patch sporting Solid Snake, who would take home an impressive salary of $139,632 per year as a Special Forces Soldier for the US Army. While Hyperion Corp is fortunately yet to be founded, it seems only fitting that as the fictional president of an intergalactic weapons manufacturer and supplier, Jack would take home such a huge paycheck. These are video game’s highest earners if they were real:Īt the top spot is Borderland’s narcissistic bad-guy, Handsome Jack, who would take home an eye watering $432,524 per year as a corporate CEO.
