10 Video Game Trailers That Spoiled WAY Too Much

10. Jackie's Death - Cyberpunk 2077

The E3 2019 trailer for Cyberpunk 2077 - which was released roughly 18 months before the actual game - spoiled the death of protagonist V's best friend Jackie Welles, enough that most seemed to assume it would occur incredibly early on in the game.

Yet Jackie's demise is actually the inciting incident which brings Cyberpunk's first act to a close, and even if you're sticking to the critical path you'll probably take about four hours to get to the scene.

Even accepting that Cyberpunk offers a roughly 30-hour story and Jackie effectively dies at the end of the prologue, did CD Projekt Red really need to spoil it ahead of time? 

It surely didn't help sell the game to anyone by itself and just deprived players of experiencing a rather crushing moment of character development totally fresh.

Jackie dying wasn't exactly tough to predict, but even so, knowing how and when it was coming took some of the wind out of its sails.
