Role in Games
In Dynasty Warriors, Xiahou Hui is one of the constant generals appearing at the Wuzhang Plains since the fourth installment, where he either serves as a subordinate of another officer or is one of the frontline generals. Later installments have him appear in more of Wei's late battles, such as Shiting or Hefei Castle in Dynasty Warriors 6. In Dynasty Warriors 8, he also appears at Jieting and ambushes Ma Su and during his retreat. He further appears in Wu's hypotehtical route at Shouchun and Runan. In some of the Xtreme Legends expansions, he often joins a hypothetical Wei assault by Sima Yi or his son on the lands of Nanzhong.

In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Xiahou Hui is given decent intelligence and politics, similar to his brother Xiahou He. He serves Wei in the later scenarios.

Historical Information
Xiahou Hui was the sixth son of Xiahou Yuan. During his youth, he was known as a skilled debater and to be a good writer. Following the death of his father in 219, Xiahou Hui was given command of a portion of Xiahou Yuan's former troops and he became a general. When Zhuge Liang launched his northern campaigns, Xiahou Hui defended the borders under the command of Cao Zhen and Sima Yi. Later, he was one of the van leaders at the battle of Wuzhang Plains. He followed Sima Yi into subduing Gongsun Yuan in 238 and eventually became Grand Marshal along with Xiahou He.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms
Xiahou Hui is mentioned in chapter 102 of the novel by Sima Yi, when the latter requests four leaders to join him in the defense against Zhuge Liang from Cao Rui. Sima Yi proposes that Xiahou Hui and Xiahou He should be made Marching generals, while Xiahou Ba and Xiahou Wei lead the van. In chapter 103, he and Xiahou He inform Sima Yi that the Shu troops built camps and engaged in field work, stating that they intend to remain longer and should thus be destroyed. Sima Yi, however, suspects a ruse by Zhuge Liang behind those actions. After the two ask Sima Yi for permission to show their gratitude for the Emperor's trust in battle, the latter gives them 5,000 troops each and allows them to march. On the way, Xiahou Hui and Xiahou He spot Zhuge Liang's wooden oxen and manage to capture some of them.
