I figured it out early because I play all my games with subtitles on. Anytime Tyr talks in the game there’s no accent above his name. But any other time he’s referenced there’s an accent above his name. Initially I thought it was an error, but the more I thought about it, I realized the writers and developers were too smart to let such a simple error pass, so I became suspicious that Tyr wasn’t Tyr. Still a fantastic reveal though. I absolutely loved the game.

I think Shepherds betrayal hurts more in the Modern Warfare 2 Remake, because after he shoots Ghost and Roach, Roach grips his arm as if he’s silently asking “why?” Shepherd simply shrugging his hand off with a look of disgust on his face and walking away made me want to put an end to him so badly.

There are a lot of Plot twists in Elden ring. Too many that the story itself is confusing. Also I played too much pokemon made me less to think that Red was a Plot twist😂😂😂 Also In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, Proffesor Sada/Turo were actually dead at the end was a good twist

I feel obligated to add the oft overlooked Legacy of Kain series. The twist in Blood Omen that Kain is, in fact, the Guardian of Balance and would have to kill himself to restore the Pillars was great but the one that really stuck with me was the conclusion at the end of Soul Reaver 2 that the spirit that had been inhabiting the Soul Reaver and was now bound to Raziel was, and always had been, him. It's a bit predictable if you're paying attention but still, finding out that the weapon you've been weilding for 2 solid games is actually your own mad Soul twinned and bound eternally to you making you a walking talking paradox was truly an epic one. Amy Hennig is truly a master storyteller.

I vote for Kingdom Hearts plot twist where Xigbar turned out to be Luxu.

For me, the biggest plot twist of any game I have played is from Metal Gear Solid 1 whom the man we thought was Master Miller was in actual fact Liquid Snake in disguise, tricking his own brother into activating Metal Gear and then trying to kill him with it.

Personally, for me it was more shocking that the world was destroyed in FF6 than Aerith's death in 7. It was still a shocking moment yes.

I agree. Sad that Sony won’t bring these games back.

The Haythem Kenway twist shook me. Ubi did a great job doing that and set the stage for a solid game. They needed to shake things up at this point and even though I was excited to play as Haythem as an Assassin, having my mind blown like that made me on edge for the rest of the game wondering what else they were going to pull! * The end of RDR 1 straight PISSED me off. We fought through way more bad guys in the game and came out alive yet they take it away like that? Eff you Rockstar. It still pisses me off to this day lol. To play THAT much only for THAT to happen? Hell naw. Great game - piss off ending IMO. ESPECIALLY since the mission to get closure isn't even mentioned anywhere on the map after the end credits roll and you're playing as Jack. * Spec Ops was a head job through and through. Great game and it does a great job messing with you all the way. Having Nolan North VA this also didn't hurt :) * MGS 2 in of itself was a mind job. I loved every minute of it. I was a bit surprised and disappointed that I didn't play as Snake as much, but still dove head first into all of the dialogue and story! Plus, it looked and sounded amazing on the PS2. I'm not the only one who giggled when I learned I could shoot the fruit and slip on seagull crap lol! * I didn't see Sheps betrayal coming. I was legit stunned with my mouth open. * If you guys didn't have Would you Kindly as number one, I would seriously question your team's gaming chops. This was expected, but mandatory. Carry on.

Legacy of Kain better be on this list

👍👍 great list Ricky

Shepherd’s betrayal was the hardest hitting plot twist in my gaming life. I was more upset that ghost “died” than I was about myself

Star Wars movies: DARTH VADER IS ANAKIN SKYWALKER AND Luke’s father. Knigths Of The Old Republic: The main protagonist is Darth Reven.

SW:TOR was awesome, and the twist that you *were* Revan still hits hard.

Marika and Radagon are the Rebis, the Perfect Being, the union of opposites. It's a concept of God on another level. Nice list.

When you booted up Final Fantasy 15 on launch day and SUPRISE! The majority of the game was cut up and sold later as DLC! 🎉

Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem deserves a shout out… Beat the game 3x defeating each God individually only to find out the God you were working for was manipulating the bloodline over centuries so he could be free and have no competition (Shadow of the Colossus walked a similar line)

The greatest video game twist for me came from conker live and reloaded where one second you're storming the beaches of Normandy, The next second you were fighting the xenomorph from alien, and then you fought the great mighty poo.

Given the ending song, GLaDOS did *not* actually delete Caroline. She transferred her old persona out, likely into a personality core, so she'd have a companion.

i really LOVE the plot-twist from "Sonic Unkeashed"!

Four plot twists that i thought were pretty good were from the Xenoblade Chronicles franchise. (spoiler warning) 1. Dickson's betrayal in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. The reveal of Zanza in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. The reveal of Klaus in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 4. The revelation of the queens of Agnus and Keves being robots in Xenoblade Chronicles 3

Heavy Rain and Life is Strange had some pretty big plot twists where the murderer revealed towards the end was one we never really suspected.

I got a soft spot for Persona 5's twist. We're tricked into thinking Joker was killed, but the Phantom Thieves outsmarted the so-called killer. Great presentation.

No GTA San andreas:Big Smoke and Ryder's betrayal?

KOTOR is fitting. So many since then have tried to copy the idea of 'you're the one responsible for everything, you created the monster, the war, and more'. Really hits you in KOTOR Sith Lords when you learn the extend of what Revan has done to the galaxy, despite stopping Malak. A full on remake with modern graphics to match the tone (as well as updated combat) would be amazing. Red Dead Redemption's ending for Marston hit me from left field back when I first played through. Which is surprising given I

Glados being Caroline is great bit of story and a twist. And a portal is one of my favorite games of all time. But even i think this has nothing, absolutely NOTHING in being at 6th place of greatest plot twists in gaming. And this is not only example on the list.

Just here to see where Bioshock is. That game taught me the definition of plot twist when I was 9

I wish I could go back and replay bioshock for the first time I knew something was up but was still surprised by the reveal

Here's another plot twist, SPOILERS, obviously down below Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean - There was a traitor in the party. It was the main protagonist. Though he did snap out of it and got better in the end.

Shepherd's betrayal still haunts me to this very day ..man

I think it was implied in Doom (2016), but it is confirmed in Doom Eternal that the new games were not a reboot series, rather they were direct sequels to the original games, and the player character is the same Doomguy from them, too.

Ghost death in MW2 still affects me to this day. Probably the worst comrade death in a video game for me personally

It might not be the greatest to others but for me another great one is in Jak 3 where you learn the precursors the gods of the world basically were all Ottsels like Daxter

You were Darth Revan all along. That should have been number 1 on this list.

Amazing video watch mojo, fantastic job.

Kind of surprised you didn't talk about Undertales Flowey twist talking to the player....The player learning that Flowey could also reset and when he appears to talk to the player and make the player think about their choices. Fourth wall breaking.

Keep in mind, DokiDoki did make sure people knew "yo, this will get fucked up." We just didn't know HOW fucked up at release.

The ending of Little Hope blew my mind. What an awesome game.

I’m not sure who noticed but for GoW Ragnarok, when someone refers to Tÿr it’s spelled like this. But when Odin talks as the fake Tyr it doesn’t have the special characters above the Y. The game gave you a small subtle clue to him being an imposter

Mortal Kombat Deception: Noob Saibot revealed as the original Sub-Zero.

I knew “would you kindly” would be on the list, but i wasn’t expecting to be #1

That Silent Hill 2 twist messed me up good.

Baiten Kaitos....there is a traitor in the group. And its the character you have been playing with from the beginning. Say what you will about that game, but considering I had been gaming for almost 20 years at the time that still blew me away.

I was expecting danganronpa v3 was there because the plot twist is so shocking it became a controversial rage to the fans and the gamers.

Number 20; except my Lee and Clem specifically avoided taking anything from the car, yet we still got punished for it.

No "Our princess is in another castle?" That one kept me up at night.

Pillars of Eternity: the gods are literally constructs, divine entities brought into being by the labour and sacrifice of an ancient civilisation that despaired when they discovered the truth at the heart of their world: that there were no gods. They resolved to put their enormous power to creating gods for their world (thereby, it was hoped, eliminating religious strife, as no one could deny the very real influence these new beings had on the very fabric of Eora). They used their very souls to fuel this venture, and the interesting thing about the lore of these games is that they were actually pretty succesful by most standards (although in the grand scheme of things they really just exchanged one set of problems for another)

The fact none of the entries are an example from Xenoblade hurts, but simultaneously it means people remain unspoiled.

Raziel: The ravenous, soul-devouring entity within the Reaver was, and always had been, me. If they were going to include a Final Fantasy entry, it should have been Final Fantasy X, which had to major twists. The first was that Yuna's pilgrimage would in in her death, the second being that Tudys is only a dream.

It’s amazing how the computer game creators create amazing plot story in game

Postal Redux's hard or nightmare ending is one of the biggest plot twists since the Postal Dude's journal entries showed that he was the only sane man in Paradise while the others went insane. However the ending showed that everyone he murdered were innocent while he was the only one who went insane.

MGS 3 snake eater when you learnt The Boss was always on your side, and knowing she would be remembered as a traitor she still went with the plan

Castlevania Lords of Shadow. Finding out you were Dracula the whole time, never saw that coming.

What about Grand Theft Auto games? They got backstories too.
