* GreenwashedVillainy: Endron, the corrupt oil company serving as the game's primary antagonistic force, runs a publicity campaign to advertise a new biofuel in order to present itself as eco-friendly. In truth, Endron is a thoroughly evil company and actively trying to corrupt and destroy nature as part of its service to the Wyrm, and the eco-friendly image is just a publicity stunt. This is acknowledged in a conversation between two [=NPCs=], where one notes that the new fuel is just the same old stuff with new packaging.

This becomes especially pronounced when he amasses enough Rage to enter a frenzy, which greatly increases both his strength and speed and allows him to tear his way through even the toughest non-boss enemies with ease.

* StealthBasedMission: Most missions revolve around espionage and infiltration, with the ideal sequence being to sneak into the bad guys' heavily defended base, accomplish some goal, and sneak back out. Cahal spends most of this time in either Homid or Lupus form: as a human, he can interact with technology to sabotage or turn off automated systems, silently assassinate guards, and snipe distant enemies with his crossbow; as a wolf, he moves much more silently, has a lower profile, can bark to lure guards from their posts, and can crawl through narrow passages such as air vents. Should he be spotted, the guards will raise the alarm and start calling in waves of reinforcements; at this point, gameplay shifts to straightforward brawling as Cahal enters his hybrid Crinos form and tears his way through hordes of enemies as a huge, berserk WolfMan. Cahal can viably just carve his way through most of the game, although using stealth can still serve to set up the battle to his advantage -- for instance, by disabling the security doors that deliver fresh waves of soldiers once the alarm is raised.

''Werewolf: The Apocalypse — Earthblood'' is an action role-playing game by Creator/CyanideStudio released in February 2021. It's based off the ''TabletopGame/WerewolfTheApocalypse'' game set in the ''TabletopGame/OldWorldOfDarkness'' universe.
Cahal, a werewolf who's part of the Fianna tribe and servant of Yfen, fights alongside his pack to stop humans who pollute the planet and cause environmental destruction. After a mission goes awry and ends with Cahal accidentally killing one of his own, he goes into exile for five years to try and control his rage. But when Cahal learns that his tribe is in trouble and that an oil subsidiary called Endron is destroying the ecosystem and killing anyone in their path, Cahal returns to his tribe to stop Endron and to redeem himself.

!!''Werewolf: The Apocalypse — Earthblood'' provides examples of:
* AnArmAndALeg: During one of her confrontations, Major Graner had her arm maimed by a werewolf. It was so badly mutilated that it had to be amputated and was replaced with a prosthetic.
* AnyoneCanDie: Quite a few named characters are killed off throughout the story. Depending on your choice in the final mission, [[spoiler:everyone still alive will end up dead ''except'' Cahal and Onawa]].
* BigBad: Richard Wadkins, the CEO of Endron and the developer of the Earthblood biofuel who longs to convert all of humanity into servants for the Wyrm.
* DownerEnding: Neither ending is particularly uplifting. No matter what choices you make, [[spoiler:everyone in the game, including Aedana, ends up dead with the exception of Cahal and Onawa, and TheStinger implies that Pentex is going to dig up Wadkins' data and resume his plans anyway. You can potentially save Declan and Ava and stop the production of Earthblood, but doing so warrants Wadkins a KarmaHoudini--which, again, gives Pentex the opportunity to restart his plans all over again]].
* TheDragon: Major Graner, Wadkins' military operator who frequently deploys most of the Endron soldiers out to kill the Lambda activists and other enemies of Endron.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Dusk]] is abruptly killed when he's exposed to the [[spoiler:Earthblood gas Wadkins deploys in the Nevada desert]]. You don't even see his death or fight him as a Fomori; Ava just tells Cahal via earpiece that he perished and he's never brought up again.
* GreaterScopeVillain: TheStinger reveals that [[spoiler:a businessman, presumably the CEO of Pentex, was fully aware of Wadkins' deeds and possibly even helping him with his plans]].
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: Said almost word for word after Cahal has to explain to Ava that he [[spoiler:killed Rodko]] after he succumbed to his Rage.
* IHaveYourWife: [[spoiler:Aedana, Cahal's daughter, is kidnapped by Wadkins halfway into the plot]].
* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler:Choosing to save Ava and her allies instead of going after Wadkins will result in Wadkins escaping the oil rig via helicopter. It's mentioned he's fired from his job, but Pentex opts to seek him out and recruit him for further use with the implication of restarting his schemes]].
* KilledOffscreen: [[spoiler:Dusk, who dies during the Earthblood gas attack]].
* RunningGag: Wadkins escaping Cahal via helicopter ''just'' before Cahal has a chance to stop him. [[spoiler:You have the option to prevent this from happening again in the final mission, at the cost of Ava, Declan, and the other Lambda activists' lives]].
* SacrificialLamb: Ludmila, Cahal's wife, dies in the prologue, both to set up Cahal's subplot where he abandons his daughter and pack for five years and to show that even the likable side characters can be killed.
* SacrificialLion: [[spoiler:Rodko]], whose death makes it clear that ''no one'' is safe anymore and to show that the game's plot is only going to get grimmer from this point forward.
* ShootTheShaggyDog: [[spoiler:The second half of the game is spent chasing after Wadkins after he kidnaps Aedana. When Cahal finally finds her in the final mission, she's already been tortured and experimented on to the point where she's a horrific Wyrm EldritchAbomination that Cahal is forced to put down]].
* SuperSoldier: Later stages reveals giant soldiers who have been exposed to Endron's biofuel, which results in them becoming hulking powerhouses who have no problem fighting werewolves and carrying heavy weaponry.
* YankTheDogsChain: After spending half of the game trying to rescue [[spoiler:Aedana]], Cahal finally finds her in the final mission aboard Wadkins' oil rig. [[spoiler:She's been converted into a Wyrm monster, and she dies in Cahal's arms after he's forced to fight and kill the beast]].
