* ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'': Shadow the Hedgehog's strikingly similar appearance to Sonic is noted often by the various characters, but he was created 50 years prior to the series and the reason he looks like Sonic is never explained,despite the fan theory Gerald based his design on an ancient prophetic mural of Super Sonic often being assumed canon.

* ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'': Part of why the ''Rise of the Sentinels'' event was so poorly received involves the plot running on a boatload of contrived coincidences, such as the party just happening on pieces of Isolde's soul by accident multiple times and characters just happening to decide to join the Sentinel party for no particular reason.

* ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles3FutureRedeemed'': Glimmer, Rex's daughter, gets into a fight with Nikol, Shulk's son. They are the last survivors of a massive battle between their countries, and are rescued from the pointless ForeverWar by Matthew and A arriving in the nick of time. Glimmer then stumbles upon the Liberators, the group that Rex and Shulk lead, which results in both groups joining together. And this all happened ''without'' Glimmer or Nikol having any idea who Rex and Shulk are. Rex knew they'd encounter their kids eventually, but is flabbergasted that it happened all at the same time. Oh, and not to mention that Matthew is actually the great-grandson of Glimmer's sister.
-->'''Rex:''' I guess we're bound together by fate. Like it was meant to be.
