Gex is a platform game series, developed by Crystal Dynamics, that details the adventures of an anthropomorphic gecko named Gex. He has served as the mascot of Crystal Dynamics, appearing on their company logo for several years up until the year 2000. In the North American version, Gex is voiced by the comedian Dana Gould; the United Kingdom version features Gould as well as Leslie Phillips and Danny John-Jules as the voice of Gex. Gex was voiced by Mitsuo Senda in the Japanese release of the second game.

The Gex games are largely inspired by American TV culture, Gex contributing to the games with wise-cracking remarks laced with media and references to popular culture.

The PlayStation versions were rereleased under the PSone Classics banner on the PlayStation Network, Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko on October 1, 2009, Gex on November 5, 2009, and Gex: Enter the Gecko on February 4, 2014, compatible with PlayStation 3, Portable and Vita. Additionally, Square Enix published Gex at GOG.com, a distribution platform for legacy games, on October 16, 2014. Limited Run Games released Gex Trilogy, a compilation of the PlayStation versions of all three games emulated through Limited Run's Carbon Engine, for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows and Xbox Series X/S on June 16, 2025.
