The first addition to our list catches my eye with the well-painted details and realistic weathering on the outfit. The essence of McCree and his western character are captured well by crescent31, although I have to dock a few points for a lack of refined detail in the beard and hat. Despite this, it’s a high quality take on the Western hero.

I love the simple sleek style of this Blackwatch-era McCree. While all of the base costume elements are there, however, I feel that the materials don’t look very realistic, especially the hair and beard. Despite moderate flaws, it’s a unique take on a rarely seen design and the younger vigilante is sharp as ever.

Our next McCree has the perfect blend of attitude and grit. Coolbeansph captures his signature style with a custom Peacekeeper revolver and a fierce snarl. The excellently sculpted armor pieces add to the brilliance of this challenging costume.

8. Thanatos-ARG

This McCree shows a grimmer, soulful rendition, revealing the darker side of the Overwatch character. His armor is all painted fantastically and the weathering shows his attention to detail. The style in this costume is undeniably great.

7. Axel Nelson

This cosplay fantastically captures the old-school Western style of Jesse McCree, complete with a classic beard that looks like it was pulled straight from the 1860s. The leather design and custom armor is complete and stylish, and the dangerous glint in Axel’s eyes seals the deal for this fantastic cosplay.

Oh my gosh- I couldn’t help but grin when I saw this miniature cowboy hero. When you look past his small stature, though, the crafting of his gear and armor is absolutely fantastic. The best element of all is the lollipop filling in for McCree’s signature cigar. I’m truly impressed by the work of OverwatchDad76.

This cosplay showcases some fantastic handmade props such as McCree’s mechanical hand as well as a bullet-riddled scarf. The hairstyle and beard in this outfit is excellent, and the armor is almost perfect. Needless to say, another fantastic costume from another incredible cosplayer.

4. Lisa Lou Who

This lovely Miss McCree combines the classic aspects of his costume with some old-school Western boots and stockings. Lisa Lou Who skillfully meshes aspects of the original character design and her own inspiration, creating a fantastic cosplay that is among the best out there.

3. shimyrk

The Russian cosplayer known as shimyrk has created a number of video game cosplays that are almost perfectly true to their source, from Link in Breath of the Wild to Handsome Jack in Borderlands. The detail in this cosplay is almost perfect, from the shining metal hand to the stylish beard attached by hand. The aspect that brings this entire cosplay together is the sassy smirk that powerfully displays McCree’s bad boy attitude. True to form, shimyrk’s creation is almost exactly accurate to Overwatch’s Jesse McCree.

2. Andy Rae Cosplay

This jaw-dropping cosplay of a female Jesse Maccree is absolutely stunning. Every detail in her outfit looks like it was plucked directly from Overwatch, and the fact that most of these aspects are handmade is even more impressive. From the tips of her boots to the brim of her hat, Andy Rae has blown me away with this gorgeous design.

1. Zephon Cos

The final cosplay on this list exceeds my expectations in nearly every way. The hat and armor looks realistic and well-worn. The face and hair of McCree is perfectly representative of the game, while still managing a realistic appearance. If I wanted to meet McCree in real life, this would be him. I hope to see more amazing Overwatch work from Zephon Cos.

So, those are the top 11 cosplays of McCree on the internet! That’s just my personal opinion, though- what did you think? Let me know if you have any changes or you think I missed something.
