9 Video Game Endings SPOILED By Trailers

9. Far Cry 4

The story of Far Cry 4 is centred around protagonist Ajay returning to his home country of Kyrat to spread the ashes of his Mother. Upon arriving however, Ajay gets caught up in the eccentric and dangerous world of king Pagan Min and the warring factions of the region.

Cue your standard affair of balls out action and insanity. In fact, Far Cry 4’s marketing and trailers were all around great and really helped to make it the most successful entry in the series to that point.

However, a moment in the game’s story trailer shows Pagan Min standing at a shrine with the player, showing they both make it to the end, and indeed where Ajay’s Mother Ishwari sent him as part of her final wishes.

I mean, it’s not all that surprising that a game’s protagonist gets to complete their goal. At least 90% of titles give you a main objective and, eventually, you fulfil it. That being said, most games don’t show this moment in a trailer before the game is even out.

Considering how wild and twisting Far Cry can be, it seems like a strange choice to include a scene from the conclusion of all things in its marketing. Thankfully, Far Cry 4 has multiple endings so there’s still plenty of fun to be had when you get there.
