10 Biggest Spoilers In Video Game Trailers

Everyone knows that one of the best ways to create hype around an upcoming movie is to release an exciting and dynamic trailer for it, full of action, romance, and, if you’re from the 90s, that guy with the really deep voice. Wonder what he’s doing now. Unfortunately, sometimes a trailer can go too far in trying to attract an audience, and reveal all of the best bits of the film ahead of time. The trailer for the original Friday the 13th spoiled pretty much all of the kills. Soylent Green’s preview more-or-less confirmed its big twist. And, a trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers gave away the fact that Gandalf came back to life! Unfortunately, this same ugly trend exists in video games too, as big swerves and secrets from some huge games were completely neutered by the people whose job it was to make the trailer. Here are the 10 Biggest Spoilers in Video Game Trailers.

The guy with the deep voice in 80s and 90s movietrailers was an amazing voiceactor named Donald Leroy LaFontaine. He passed away in 2008. Rest in peace you absolute legend.

[@swordbladez]

Donald LeRoy LaFontaine (The voice of over 5000 trailers) died in 2008 :/

[@j.a.weishaupt1748]

Dude, spoilers!

[@kvonjaco]

To be honest, the cover of MW2 does show the Capitol building in ruins in the background

[@12thMandalorian]

Mass Effect 2 when the trailer shows Garrus Vakarian’s return to the Normandy crew

[@user-ch9gm3mj1j]

I need a TripleJump hoody

[@MicIsMyNick135]

GLaDOS return is a spoiler?! 🤔 This isn't a spoiler, this is a reason for purchase! She was a fan favourite, even befor the second game was released. It had to be in the trailer! I think it would be more of a spoiler if they had shown the plot twist with Wheatley.

[@robinsonsonic]

I will never forgive EA for that Darth Vader spoiler in Fallen Order. I was having a great time with it, building up towards the finale, and I saw that damn commercial during the Super Bowl, and when Vader appeared, it killed all my momentum with it. I still finished it 100%, but knowing I had Vader to look forward to completely killed my mood with the game.

[@stephenjarvis534]

That happened to me! It meant I had virtually no reaction to Vader's appearance when I played it.

[@BrotherMag]

I'm glad I don't watch the Superbowl 😅

[@TheRandomHero1988]

that voice guy died.... sorry

[@TheRandomHero1988]

@@ji1298 Donald LeRoy LaFontaine, in 2008

[@FeiFongWang]

Ben died???

[@andysj536]

F

[@MrBerniemcgovern]

Ah! I thought Ken Nordine, too many smooth voices : )

[@krelbin]

I didn’t even watch the entire list yet. I saw the topic and skipped through to see if the FF7 trailer was on here. I remember watching it after I started the game and then NOT being surprised by it. lol. Square’s marketing was going insane and could not be controlled.

[@PAINNN666]

There probably trailer with that bouncing green materia too. It's not that obvious spoiler but still.

[@wizzardoffuzz]

It was called locked and loaded in all the uk as well wasn’t it?

[@PAINNN666]

Also there probably was a trailer with that bouncing green materia. It's not that obvious spoiler as scene with Cloud but still.

[@TrashTalkin]

>Wonder what that dude with the deep voice is doing now. He's dead.

[@Martynde]

Huh? She was called Aeris in my version of FFVII. And I chose the default name too.

[@connormountford]

Praise be, a Ratchet and Clank mention

[@zenderman4913]

I looked at every trailer for ratchet and clank going commando/locked and loaded and there is no scene where it shows angela cross as the unkown thief so you kinda lied there

[@davedoerffer9896]

not a list with out resident evil and final fantasy

[@PoutingTrevor]

EPILEPSY WARNING: 02:40-03:07 I'm not joking, and I can't believe you didn't spot it.

[@wyterabitt2149]

Hm, not sure I agree with Portal 2. There is no Portal 2. I played it with no knowledge of the game, I didn't know a single person who has played either of them, don't read reviews, and it had been years so wasn't going to go watch a trailer. I just knew that Glados would return by default. Once the game starts properly, the creepy setup is obviously heading that way.

[@jamesmcgeachy5433]

🎉

[@aliensweathands]

👽

[@MelonCauli]

Sorry but Glados was the selling point of the game. That wasn't a spoiler.

[@Boogie_the_cat]

The pictures of the blonde man in this video portray him being more clothed than what I consider to be desirable.
