* Done accidentally by ''VideoGame/GhostTrick'''s BigBad. [[spoiler:Yomiel]] tried to [[spoiler:manipulate Lynne into shooting him, but she resisted and missed her first shot. This shot strikes Yomiel's cat carrier, killing his literal MoralityPet Sissel. While it ends up working out for everyone involved, since Sissel is the game's protagonist, Yomiel regretted it and admits that if he could TimeTravel like Sissel can, he would've saved his life.]]

* A necessary part of a Dark Side run in ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'': Mission is a loyal party member from almost the beginning of the game, a teenaged girl who is a UtilityPartyMember, has a higher alignment score than the '''party's Jedi'' and has absolutely no chance against your PlayerCharacter. She is the first to stick up for the PlayerCharacter after TheReveal hits and truly believes that you aren't too far gone to hurt her. But if you really want to be a Sith, you kill her yourself. Or, if you want to be a [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential total dick]] and cross that MoralEventHorizon at record speed, order her best friend to carry it out.

* In ''VideoGame/EnsembleStars'', Souma serves as a MoralityPet for Keito - while he's typically a pretty harsh and strict person, he's genuinely affectionate towards his innocent and undyingly devoted junior, and it's established that in the backstory it was Souma's kindness that transformed Keito and Akatsuki in general from villains into basically good people. However, the later event ''Ryuusei Bonfire'' shows that this wasn't a smooth process for Souma - [[spoiler:when he found out they were hurting Kanata (his club leader, friend, and ''God'') and was understandably angry and upset, Keito became enraged and yelled at him for disobeying, calling him useless and expelling him from the unit, leaving Souma in tears.]] This revelation wasn't well-received by some in the fandom who argued that this was far too cruel without any possible justification and [[MoralEventHorizon left Keito permanently unsympathetic]].
* ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemGaiden Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia]]'' has [[spoiler:Prince Berkut sacrificing his girlfriend Rinea, aka [[MoralityPet THE person he cares for]], to [[BigBad Duma]] as a part of a DealWithTheDevil after Alm beats his pride into the mud and he learns that he was never going to inherit the Rigelian throne]].
* Experienced at least twice by Kratos in the ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'' series, when he [[spoiler:murdered his wife and child]] prior to the start of the series, and when he [[spoiler:kills Athena]] while fighting [[spoiler:Zeus]] at the climax of ''VideoGame/GodOfWarII''.
* In ''VideoGame/JediKnightMysteriesOfTheSith'', this trope is invoked in [[spoiler:the final duel of the game]]. As Mara Jade, you must holster your lightsaber and stop attacking [[spoiler:Kyle]] in order to force him to have to kill you unarmed if he wants to reach his goal, thus snapping him out of it.
* ''VideoGame/Persona5'': During dinner, Makoto Niijima innocently mentions to her sister/[[PromotedToParent legal guardian]] Sae that she believes their late father would have supported the Phantom Thieves. Sae already has a low opinion of their father and his ideals, especially since said ideas got him killed in the line of duty and left her to struggle with raising Makoto alone, and this promptly causes her to snap and verbally tear her younger sister a new one, going so far as to tell Makoto to her face [[ResentfulGuardian that she considers her a useless burden]], made even worse by the fact that Makoto does everything she possibly can to [[WellDoneSonGuy please Sae and lessen her burden]]. [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone Sae instantly regrets saying it]], but the damage is done.
* ''VideoGame/RiseOfTheThirdPower'': Prince Gage initially gets along well with his fiancée, Princess Arielle, but when he ambushes the party at Telindra, he orders his soldiers to execute the party and restrain Arielle despite her insistence on staying with the party. While he seems to be doing this because he believes the party is lying to Arielle, it shows that the trust between the two is not as strong as it first appeared. Once Arielle shoots him with a cannon to get her point across, he has his soldiers spare the party and leave Arielle to her devices, indicating that he realizes he went too far. That said, this event causes Arielle to fall out of love with Gage, since it shows that he prioritizes his country's interests over her own intentions. [[spoiler:Though later, he chooses to defy Arkadya by saving Arielle from the assassin, Sparrow.]]
* ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphoniaDawnOfTheNewWorld'': In the "bad" ending, Emil [[spoiler:fakes his SuperpoweredEvilSide like he does on the other endings]], but this time goes too far in his fight with [[RogueProtagonist Lloyd]] and [[LoveInterest Marta]], and wins the fight, [[spoiler:killing Marta]]. Raine rushes over to heal Marta. Emil promptly admits it was all an act, and in an act to redeem himself, [[spoiler:he [[RedemptionEqualsDeath kills]] [[MurderSuicide himself]]. [[NonStandardGameOver Oops]]]].
