Line #52 DoubleMeaningTitle/VideoGames


1	* ''VideoGame/AITheSomniumFiles'' has a total of ''FIVE'' meanings for the first two letters, all of which are thematically relevant to the game: "A.I.", as in "artificial intelligence", referring to the character Aiba; "Eye", a consistent theme throughout the game; "I", referring to the game's first-person perspective; "Ai", the Japanese word for "love", another major theme; and (mirrored vertically), the Roman numeral "VI", referring to the game's ArcNumber.
2	* ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedOdyssey'' refers to not just the hour-long storyline and the massive open world of Ancient Greece but it is a reference to Creator/{{Homer}}'s ''[[Literature/TheOdyssey Odyssey]]'' which involves the titular protagonist going on an epic journey amidst the chaos and destruction from the Trojan War much like how the Eagle Bearer participates in UsefulNotes/ThePeloponnesianWar and goes from place to place to find their sibling.
3	* The first episode in Telltale's ''VideoGame/BackToTheFutureTheGame'' series is titled "It's About Time". The game is about time travel, and the phrase was also the fan reaction to the announcement. It's also Marty's reaction to seeing Doc again. The saying it also a tagline in the trailer for ''Part II'' (the movie) -- itself coming four years after the original.
4	* ''VideoGame/BlackRockShooter: The Game'' is Franchise/BlackRockShooter's first video game entry, but also refers to [[spoiler:White Rock Shooter orchestrating a 'game' to absorb a perfect copy of herself.]]
5	* ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'' has not a double, but a ''Triple''-Meaning Title. It, first of all, refers to the bloodborne disease that is plaguing the city of Yharnam. Secondly, it refers to Yharnam being a city borne upon the fame, fortune and success it has enjoyed thanks to the discovery of [[CorruptChurch the Healing Church's]] holy blood, as well as the blood obsessed culture that has sprung up around it. Thirdly, it refers to [[spoiler:the child born of blood that [[EldritchAbomination the Great Ones]] are seeking to sire, as well as the fact that all of their previous attempts ended in bloody stillbirths]]. There is also this almost-TitleDrop in the addage of [[AcademyOfEvil Byrgenwerth]]:
6	--> "We are born of the blood. Made men by the blood. Undone by the blood. Our eyes are yet to open. [[spoiler:Fear the Old Blood]]."
7	* ''VideoGame/{{Borderlands 2}}'' has one mission titled "Rising Action." This refers both to [[spoiler:Sanctuary rising out of the ground]] and part of the traditional PlotMountain (which this mission is an example of).
8	* Rockstar's ''VideoGame/{{Bully}}'' turns the implied belligerence of the title into a nickname for Bullworth Academy, the school where much of the game is set.
9	* The subtitle in ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot4ItsAboutTime'' refers first and foremost to the game's plot, which takes Crash and company on a time-shifting adventure, but also to the fact that a new ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot'' {{platform game}} had not been seen in the past ten years leading up to its release, making it well overdue and highly anticipated.
10	* ''VideoGame/ColonyWars: Vengeance'' takes place after the first game, when the League of Free Planets defeated the Earth Empire by sealing the Sol Warp Hole, trapping the Empire in its home star system and cutting it off from the supplies of the colony worlds. After years of civil war, the charismatic Commander Kron has rallied Imperial forces to strike back at the League. However, [[spoiler:there is more to the war against the League than one realizes until later, when it becomes clear that Kron's sole motivation is vengeance against the League for sending him on a suicide mission in response to his violent and brutal nature -- something that becomes glaringly clear when he opts to [[RevengeOverReason continue his vendetta as]] [[EnemyMine the League and Imperial Navy form a truce to deal with a common threat.]]]]
11	* The InteractiveFiction game ''VideoGame/{{Degeneracy}}'' is set in the castle of an evil noble who engaged in a lot of ''degeneracy'' in his life. But after he is killed, a magical spell is triggered and the entire castle starts ''degenerating'' back to something primitive and formless.
12	* ''VideoGame/{{Deltarune}}'':
13	** The game's title is both an [[SignificantAnagram anagram]] for its predecessor ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'', and a reference to the "Delta Rune", the Dreemur family royal crest from the previous game.
14	** The music playing when Ralsei explains about The Roaring in chapter 2 is called "The Dark Truth". The truth in question is dark both in the senses of being [[AwfulTruth bad news for the one hearing it]] and of being related to [[CastingAShadow metaphysical darkness]].
15	** The theme song for Chapter 2's {{Superboss}} is called "[[spoiler:BIG SHOT]]." This refers to both the boss' CharacterCatchphrase, and an EleventhHourSuperpower that gives you the ability to [[spoiler:shoot bullets from your SOUL, including holding Z to fire bigger shots]].
16	* ''VideoGame/{{Detention}}'''s English title can refer to both being punished by having to stay in school after class and by being confined in a prison. The protagonist ([[DecoyProtagonist or is he?]]) wakes up in a school he can't escape from, and later on the game explores Taiwan's martial law period, with special attention given to dissidents being tortured and imprisoned.
17	* The name ''VideoGame/DeusEx'' is both a commentary on typically weakly-structured FPS plots that often employed DeusExMachina, and also refers to the literal meaning of the phrase "god from the machine", since the story deals with DeusEstMachina.
18	* ''VideoGame/DoItForMe'': At first, "Do it for me" sounds like a romantic thing a lover would say to another, which is indeed what the girlfriend says to the protagonist. But when the game's context is refitted, [[spoiler:"Do it for me" sounds like an order a killer (the girlfriend) would give to their accomplice (the protagonist)]].
19	* One of the climax missions of ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'' is "What Pride Had Wrought," which is a [[AsTheGoodBookSays line from the Chant of Light]] (just like the title of every other main mission). The difference here is that [[spoiler:Solas, one of your companions, goes by a name that means "Pride" in Elvhen... and all the events of the game, especially this mission, were caused by his mistakes]].
20	* The subtitle of ''VideoGame/DragonQuestVIII'' is "Journey of the Cursed King". This obviously refers to King Trode, who has been transformed into a troll-like creature because of a curse. [[spoiler:But it also refers to the main character, as it can eventually be revealed that he has been cursed since he was a child, and is the rightful heir to a kingdom.]]
21	* One of the entries in the fourth installment of ''VideoGame/DreadXCollection'' is called ''The Fruit''. Not only does it refer to the titular fruit that's causing the Lovecraftian crisis in the town of Ravenhollow, but it also refers to the fact that the protagonist is gay and is trying to find his partner.
22	* In ''VideoGame/EarthwormJim'', the first section of Buttville is also known as "Use Your Head". In this section, you must ''skydive through an enormous serpentine tunnel composed entirely of razor-sharp thorns while using your face as a helicopter-thingy,'' which means you must literally use Jim's head to progress and think fast with your own head in order to avoid the thorns.
23	* ''Franchise/TheElderScrolls'' series has a few [[Literature/TheElderScrollsInUniverseBooks In-Universe books]] which use this trope:
24	** ''Confessions of a Khajiit Fur Trader.'' The author is a fur trader who ''is'' a [[CatFolk Khajiit]], while also being [[SapientFurTrade a trader of Khajiit fur]] (and [[LizardFolk Argonian]] hides).
25	** ''The Importance of Where'' is the story of a warrior learning where he must strike his blows. Both in the sense of [[AttackItsWeakPoint where on the monster's body to strike in order to deal the most damage]], and [[GlorySeeker where to chase the monster before striking the killing blow in order to have the most people witness him killing it]].
26	* ''VideoGame/FatalFrame'' has its original Japanese title, 零, pronounced "rei". It normally means "zero", which eventually became its European title, but it also means "ghost".
27	* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
28	** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'' refers to how the game is a new edition of [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII a classic RPG that came out in 1997]], and [[spoiler:how Sephiroth is trying to [[MakeWrongWhatOnceWentRight remake the events of history so he'll win]].]]
29	** ''VideoGame/LightningReturnsFinalFantasyXIII'' has both an in-story meaning of Lightning returning to the world after spending [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII2 the previous game]] in Valhalla (and the time between the two in crystal stasis) and a more meta meaning of Lightning returning to being the main character and player character.
30	** Similar to the ''Skyward Sword'' example for ''The Legend of Zelda'', the "Heavensward" expansion for ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV'' can refer to the [[spoiler:Heaven's Ward, King Thordan's knights]], as well as civilization working towards peace and progress following the main conflict, not to mention the expansion's general theme of flight.
31	* ''VideoGame/FireEmblemEngage'' is named after the {{Invocation}} used for its SummonMagic, "Emblem, Engage!" It's also, according to developer interviews, a reference to the developers hoping to avoid EnjoyTheStorySkipTheGame this time and create "engaging" gameplay. But given that, later in the story [[spoiler: the protagonist becomes an Emblem called "the Fire Emblem"]], the title could also be read as "[[{{Invocation}} Fire Emblem, Engage]]!"
32	* The ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' franchise is fond of using these:
33	** ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysSisterLocation'': The game takes place at an actual sister location of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza called Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental. The main animatronic, Circus Baby, is female. [[spoiler:And the game is about discovering the location (and fate) of Michael Afton's sister.]]
34	** Part of ''VideoGame/FreddyFazbearsPizzeriaSimulator'''s gameplay is a business tycoon simulator. However, the title also refers to the true ending, [[spoiler:in which it's revealed that the restaurant is actually a simulation meant as a trap to destroy the animatronics once and for all.]]
35	** ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysVRHelpWanted'''s title, obviously, is a play on a commonly used phrase for hiring businesses. However, it can refer to either the tapes' events, which detail [[spoiler:the SanitySlippage and untimely death of the previous beta tester. Or, it can refer to [[BigBad William Afton]]'s consciousness inside the game, who has the goal of escaping [[GrandTheftMe via a specific kind of help]]. It can also refer to Vanny, who by the end of the game is BrainwashedAndCrazy.]]
36	** ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysARSpecialDelivery'''s title alludes to the game's premise of animatronics being delivered straight to your door. However, the game's lore focuses on Vanny's increasingly odd online orders, the warehouse employees' various mishaps, and [[spoiler:a data packet being slipped through by overriding safety proctocols]], all of which fit the definition of "special delivery."
37	** ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysSecurityBreach'' refers to the fact that the player character, Gregory, is a child trapped inside the Pizzaplex after hours who is being hunted down by the animatronics and a nightguard for being a trespasser. Or, it can refer to the animatronics themselves, who are [[NotHimself acting abnormal]] as a result of being hacked. ''Or'', it could refer to Vanessa, the aforementioned nightguard who [[spoiler:had her psyche, well, [[BrainwashedAndCrazy breached]] in ''Help Wanted'' and [[RogueProtagonist is now an enemy]].]]
38	* The game ''VideoGame/HackNSlash'' is a hack and slash game about hacking [=NPCs=]' source code.
39	* ''VideoGame/{{Hades}}'' obviously refers to [[Myth/ClassicalMythology the Greek god of the Underworld himself]], who serves as the main antagonist towards PlayerCharacter Zagreus, but the name has also been used to refer to the Greek underworld in general. Thus, the title can serve as both an AntagonistTitle and ThePlace.
40	* In ''VideoGame/HorizonZeroDawn'', the first mission as teenage!Aloy is called "The Point of the Spear". On the surface, this has an obvious meaning: The literal point of a spear, which Aloy now uses as a weapon after the TimeSkip. However, it also carries a more metaphorical meaning: Rost sent Aloy on the quest so that she would learn that the purpose of being a Brave is to protect the tribe rather than pursuing one's own goals. In other words, he was teaching her the point of carrying a weapon.
41	** Sequel ''VideoGame/HorizonForbiddenWest'' doubles down on this, titling the second half of its prologue "The Point of the Lance", which is literally about discovering the purpose for which the lance Aloy was given near the end of the previous game was constructed. ''Forbidden West'' in particular loves this trope, showing up in the names of main quests "Death's Door" and "The Sea of Sands" and many side quests.
42	* ''VideoGame/InazumaEleven SD'' is a game which features chibi versions of the characters (hence "super deformed"), but the "SD" also stands for "Sakka Daisuki" (love soccer).
43	* A ''VideoGame/JustCause''? Just (Be)Cause? YOU MAKE THE CALL! The games also deal with freeing countries from oppressive dictatorships, and the US invasion of Panama in the late 1980s was codenamed "Operation Just Cause".
44	* ''VideoGame/KillerFrequency'': At least four interpretations. A killer stalking callers who are live on a radio frequency. The frequent scenarios of having to deal with the killer. The killer seemingly returning after many years, thus being habitually frequent. And the [[spoiler:killer themselves being literally frequent (as in occurring multiple times), since there are actually two of them]].
45	* ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'':
46	** The AnotherSideAnotherStory mode of ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsChainOfMemories'' is named Reverse/Rebirth. Both words are romanized the same way in Japanese, referring to both the PerspectiveFlip and Riku's [[HeelFaceTurn metaphorical rebirth.]]
47	** WordOfGod is that the title of ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts358DaysOver2'' refers to the 358 days experienced by two people, but leaves it ambiguous as to which two people: it could be Roxas and Xion, Roxas and Sora, Roxas and Axel, or really any combination of two of the main characters.
48	** ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance''. The "3D" is short for '''D'''ream '''D'''rop '''D'''istance, and also refers to how it was originally released for the Platform/Nintendo3DS.
49	* ''Franchise/TheKingOfFighters'' can refer to both the in-universe tournament, and Kyo Kusanagi, the franchise's overarching protagonist.
50	* The level "Manifest Destiny" in ''VideoGame/LANoire'', which has two meanings. The most obvious is that it's a stock phrase about claiming the west, and the game takes place in Los Angeles. [[spoiler: The double meaning is that many, many characters are murdered because their names are on the shipping manifest of the Army ship that was robbed prior to the game's events.]]
51	* ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'':
52	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast'': The title can mean either "link" as in "connection", or "Link" as in TheProtagonist. Same with the sequel, ''Videogame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkBetweenWorlds''.
53	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaLinksAwakening'' has several meanings. It can refer to Link awakening in Marin's house at the beginning of the game, it can refer to Link awakening the Wind Fish, or it can refer to how the game is AllJustADream, and therefore Link awakens from the dream at the end.
54	** In ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheMinishCap'', the title either refers to [[spoiler:Ezlo, a Minish who became a cap]] or [[spoiler:the magical cap created by Ezlo that empowers the villain.]]
55	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker'': In addition to the title artifact, the title can refer to Link as its wielder. He's called "Wind Waker" and "waker of the winds" in-game.
56	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess'': The title can refer to both Zelda, the princess of a realm which has been overtaken by Twilight, and [[spoiler:Midna, whose actual royal title ''is'' Twilight Princess]].
57	** The Japanese subtitle of ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSpiritTracks'' is ''Daichi no Kiteki'', which means "train whistle of the land". When you remove one of the kanji from "kiteki", it becomes ''Daichi no Fue'' (flute of the land), the Japanese name of the Spirit Flute.
58	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword'': In an interview, the devs mentioned that in addition to "Skyward" meaning "towards the sky", they picked up from the American team that "ward" means "to defend", giving it the double meaning of "Protector of the/from the sky".
59	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'': The title is meant to refer to the AfterTheEnd version of Hyrule with its relative lack of civilization. The "breath" part of the title is also meant to sound like "breadth," in reference to the massive WideOpenSandbox nature of the game world compared to previous games. Lastly, [[spoiler:the [[AnimalMecha Divine Beasts]], constructed to look like wild animals, use a BreathWeapon attack on Calamity Ganon right before Link faces him]].
60	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTearsOfTheKingdom'': Not only two possible meanings, but two different pronunciations[[note]][[WordOfGod Nintendo have confirmed]] that the word in question refers to "teardrops"[[/note]]. Massive chunks of the overworld have been ripped out of the ground and sent skyward in an event that gets referred to as "the Upheaval". However, there is also a Main Quest revolving around eleven geoglyphs, in which Link must seek out a filled teardrop shape upon each pattern on the earth. [[spoiler:These turn out to hold the memories of Zelda, preserved in her tears when she [[ForbiddenChekhovsGun underwent draconification]] after being flung into the past.]]
61	* ''VideoGame/LennasInception'' can mean both the start of Lenna's journey as the new hero and [[spoiler:how Lenna came to be, transforming from an Archangel into a normal human.]]
62	* Each episode of ''VideoGame/LifeIsStrangeBeforeTheStorm'' is named after a line from ''Theatre/TheTempest'' which echoes the scene it's taken from (with Rachel [[spoiler: and Chloe]] playing a character in a school production) and the events of the episode.
63	* ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigi'':
64	** ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiBowsersInsideStory'' refers to how [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario and Luigi]] can go inside Bowser and how the plot [[ADayInTheLimelight focuses more on Bowser than it does the Bros.]]
65	** ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiDreamTeam'' can refer to Mario and Prince Dreambert, who are a literal dream team in that they are a "team" that enters dreams, or it could refer to the fact that Dreamy Luigi can duplicate himself, giving you a "team" of Dreamy Luigis, another literal dream team.
66	* ''Franchise/MassEffect'' refers to the eponymous phenomenon, the "Mass Effect," harnessed by humanity and other advanced civilizations to alter mass and the incredible technologies based upon it. It also refers to your decisions and actions, which have lasting consequences for the entire galaxy, i.e. a ''mass effect''.
67	* The "Vanguard" section of ''VideoGame/MedalOfHonorVanguard'''s title refers to the fact that at the start of the game, the 82nd Airborne Division is a completely untested unit in warfare, as well as Paratrooping in general being relatively new in World War 2, and that the 82nd Division is being sent into battle first in each operation, before the rest of the US Army.
68	* The title of ''Rockman Mega World'', the Japanese version of ''VideoGame/MegaManTheWilyWars'' (a {{compilation\|Rerelease}} of [[VideoGame/MegaMan1 the]] [[VideoGame/MegaMan2 first]] [[VideoGame/MegaMan3 three]] ''VideoGame/MegaManClassic'' games for the [[Platform/SegaGenesis Mega Drive]]), can be considered as [[SuperTitle64Advance an allusion to the Mega Drive itself]], as well as the title character's name in the English versions (Mega Man). It can also be seen as a nod to the ''Rockman World'' games for the Platform/GameBoy, which were pseudo-compilations of the original [[Platform/NintendoEntertainmentSystem Famicom]] games. (Western gamers will better recognize this sub-series as the games ''VideoGame/MegaManDrWilysRevenge'', ''VideoGame/MegaManII'', ''VideoGame/MegaManIII'', ''VideoGame/MegaManIV'', and ''VideoGame/MegaManV'', with some retroactively referring to them as the "Mega Man World" series.)
69	* A "solid" in geometrical terms refers to a three-dimensional figure. The original ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' happens to be the third ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' game and the first one in [=3D=]. Also, the protagonist is codenamed "Solid Snake".
70	* ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater'' refers to the name of the operation the protagonist takes part of, the fact that he may have to eat snakes while on the mission or the FinalBoss chewing the protagonist (codenamed: Naked Snake) out of his naivety. He's also a Green Beret, who are called "snake eaters" for their survival training.
71	* ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolidV'':
72	** ''Ground Zeroes'': The name is about both the "ground zero" for the destruction of MSF that 'resets' everything for Snake, and also alludes to 9/11 and the Gitmo-like setting. The term technically refers to the point above a mid-air explosion, and [[spoiler:the game ends with a devastating explosion in midair. (Ironically, over the sea.)]]
73	** ''The Phantom Pain'' refers to both the literal phantom pain of losing an arm, and the ''metaphorical'' phantom pain from losing loved ones, exhibited by many characters.
74	* ''Franchise/{{Metroid}}'':
75	** In ''VideoGame/SuperMetroid'', the title refers to both the fact that this ''Metroid'' game was released for the Platform/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem and the supersized Metroid encountered at the end of the game.
76	** The title of ''VideoGame/MetroidSamusReturns'' is a variant on the subtitle of the game of which it is a remake, ''VideoGame/MetroidIIReturnOfSamus'', but also refers to how Samus has not been the main character in a ''Franchise/{{Metroid}}'' game since ''VideoGame/MetroidOtherM'', 7 years before.
77	** ''VideoGame/MetroidPrime'': "Prime" has many definitions, one of which is a mathematical term for a derivative of a function. Thus ''Metroid Prime'' is an offshoot of the main ''Metroid'' series. It's also an AntagonistTitle referring to the game's final boss ("prime" also meaning "most significant") who goes on to become the ArcVillain of the sub-series.
78	* The game ''VideoGame/NoDelivery'' seems to be referring to the haunted pizza parlor setting. However at the end of the demo the weird puppet thing mentions that ''there is no delivery from this place'' as in no escape.
79	* The ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes'' series toys a lot with its themes and approach to "heroism", and with each entry, it has a new context that its title can be applied to:
80	** The first game was a heavily deconstructive satire on the AntiHero, with its protagonist, Travis Touchdown, being merely [[UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist one immature, bloodthirsty miscreant]] in [[WorldOfBadass a world of violent assassins]] that -- while some may be played more sympathetically than others -- are [[AffablyEvil certainly still not "good" people]]. In that sense, [[CrapsackWorld the world has "no more heroes"]] to really uphold a traditional moral bedrock (which poses an interesting series of twists that [[CharacterDevelopment causes Travis' philosophies to shift anyway]]).
81	** [[VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes2DesperateStruggle The second game]] builds on the CrapsackWorld direction of the first game, while also putting it in an entirely new context -- [[LegendaryInTheSequel Travis has become legendary]] as an assassin who climbed to the top but managed to free himself from the bloodshed (for a time being), earning the veneration of those similarly trapped in [[CycleOfRevenge the cyclical business of killing and revenge]], calling him "The Crownless King" or [[TitleDrop the "No-More Hero"]]. The meaning of Travis' significant absence from the world around him could also apply to ''[[VideoGame/TravisStrikesAgainNoMoreHeroes Travis Strikes Again]]'' as Travis has went into deeper self-exile, [[spoiler:including from his wife and children]].
82	** ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroesIII'' presents another new meaning. This time, the enemies Travis needs to fight are a legion of alien criminals [[FakeUltimateHero who posture themselves]] as ''{{super\|hero}}''[[{{Superhero}} heroes]] who "deserve" to TakeOverTheWorld. Ergo, Travis' new mission is to ensure there are no more of these [[BewareTheSuperman "heroes"]] any longer.
83	* ''VideoGame/NoOneHasToDie'' can be read as both "No-one has to die" and "No, one has to die". For most of the game, [[SomeoneHasToDie you need to pick one person to die each round]]. At the end, [[spoiler:you gain the power to save everyone]].
84	* ''VideoGame/{{Okami}}'' has a ''triple'' meaning. The name (assuming long o) can mean "great god". It can also mean "wolf". Your character, naturally, is both. In addition, Kami by itself means both god and paper, and one of the game's mechanics involves using a Celestial Brush on "Celestial" Paper.
85	* ''VideoGame/{{Omori}}'' being an pun of {{Hikikomori}} considering the titular character's role. [[spoiler:In japanese, Omori means 'weight' considering the feelings Sunny's endure after his AccidentalMurder of his sister Mari. [[SayMyNameWithAndS With another spelling]], it also means "large forest", which is referring the world that he created to escape from that weight. And in Romanian, omori means "to kill", and this is how Sunny saw himself all that time, as a killer. It also doubles up as Mari's Piano brand, and Omori's design is monochromatic, similar to piano keys]].
86	* ''VideoGame/Pedestal2021'': ''Pedestal'' refers to the pedestal that Aoi put Shiori on for being the perfect SchoolIdol beloved by everyone, and how her supposed suicide [[BrokenPedestal threw her off it]], to the point that Aoi is investigating her death specifically to prove that such a popular girl who had everything could not have possibly killed herself and thus preserve the pedestal. [[spoiler:But Stage 2 outright explicitly says that there was ''another'' person Aoi put on a pedestal that gets broken by the end - Akari, Aoi's best friend, who turns out to be TheSociopath who drove Shiori to despair for her amusement.]]
87	* Fans of the first game had long been waiting for Creator/PopCap's ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombies2ItsAboutTime'', in addition to the game focusing on TimeTravel.
88	* For ''Franchise/RatchetAndClank'', Creator/InsomniacGames makes a point of making the subtitles refer to two or more elements: Gameplay, Story and a DoubleEntendre.
89	** ''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankGoingCommando'' refers to Ratchet becoming a commando, which gives him advanced gameplay like strafing, and refers to not wearing pants.
90	** ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankUpYourArsenal Up Your Arsenal]]'' sounds like a threat of rectal invasion, and acknowledges that the game has the largest amount of weapons for any Ratchet game at the time (helped by having weapons upgrade four times).
91	** ''[[VideoGame/RatchetDeadlocked Deadlocked]]'' refers to the Deadlock collars given to our heroes that puts them in a bind, constrains the players in co-op, and sounds like a bondage kink.
92	** ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankGoingMobile Going Mobile]]'' refers to the game being played on phones, as well as the duo having to cross large distances in a digital mainframe over the course of the game.
93	*** The cancelled ''Ratchet & Clank: Clone Home'' has two: cloning was a focal part of the plot, and the game was essentially a MissionPackSequel of ''Going Mobile''.
94	** ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankSizeMatters Size Matters]]'' references the Shrink-o-matic being a focal point of the story with the Technomites, that some levels are on a miniature scale, [[BiggerIsBetterInBed the size of one's package]] and that it was the first game in the series on a handheld, the Platform/PlayStationPortable.
95	** ''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankFutureToolsOfDestruction'' refers to the new Combat Devices, the Dimensionator that threatens the galaxy and [[RunningGag your package again]].
96	** ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankFutureQuestForBooty Quest for Booty]]'' refers to the pirate theme of the game, Ratchet's search for Clank, and [[MaleGaze liking people's butts]].
97	** ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankFutureACrackInTime A Crack in Time]]'' refers to abuse of the Great Clock threatening the fabric of time, the new portals that allow travelling to past versions of a level, and butt cracks.
98	** ''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankAll4One'''s is an obscured version of its original subtitle: ''4Play''. This would refer to Ratchet, Clank, Qwark and Nefarious being forced to work together, it being the first Ratchet game to feature four player co-op, and romantic prelude before sex.
99	** ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankFullFrontalAssault Full Frontal Assault]]'' is about the game's tower defense mechanics, and exposing oneself in public.
100	** ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankIntoTheNexus Into the Nexus]]'' is the first Insomniac entry to completely avert this. It was attempted with the subtitle ''Into the Nether Regions'', referring to the cross-dimensional story and gameplay, and people's crotches.
101	** ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankRiftApart Rift Apart]]'' references the rift-based gameplay, the fact that Ratchet and Clank get separated for a good chuck of the plot, and for the first time it's also ''not'' a double entendre, but a spoonerism of sorts.[[note]]Ripped a Fart[[/note]]
102	* In the world of the game, a ''VideoGame/{{Receiver}}'' is a person (like the player character) who can hear the messages of the people who made the tapes, but the word can also mean [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Receiver_(firearms) the functional part of a firearm]]. Given that the primary hook of the game is the detailed simulation of the mechanics of firearms operation, this double-meaning is quite fitting.
103	* ''VideoGame/RedemptionCemetery'' has ''every'' game so far in the series have different meanings. For example: ''Grave Testimony'' has the "Grave" either mean how the situations where each of the characters died be serious, or rather how their witnessing to supernatural events sent them to their ''graves''.
104	* ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'' had some fun with this [[MarketBasedTitle across regions]]. [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil7Biohazard The seventh title]] is called ''Resident Evil 7: Biohazard'' in English, and ''Biohazard 7: Resident Evil'' in Japanese. Both combinations make perfect sense in context, as the setting is a residence corrupted by a biohazard.
105	* There are two minigames in the ''VideoGame/RhythmHeaven'' series titled "Built to Scale", and while they share the same primary meaning (both games involve building widgets in a factory), their secondary meanings are slightly different: In the DS game, your audio cue is a rising "do-re-mi" scale. In ''Fever'', the backing track is a short melody that goes through a major scale and then repeats one key higher (first in C major, then in D major, then in E major, etc.).
106	* The title of ''VideoGame/SayonaraWildHearts'' is a combo of this and BilingualBonus: the game uses [[ArcWords "wild hearts"]] as synecdoche for [[LoveHurts the cycle of falling in and out of love]], so an average English-speaking audience member would see the title and think [[NeverBeHurtAgain "Goodbye, heartbreak!"]], which does tie with the main plot of fighting enemies who represent the protagonist's past troubles. However, "sayonara" translates more literally to "that's the way it is", which also ties in with how the story is also about ''accepting'' heartbreak as a fact of life, [[EarnYourHappyEnding and learning how to grow strong from it.]]
107	* ''VideoGame/SniperEliteV2''. V2 is the abbreviation of a second version of something, meaning ''Sniper Elite V2'' is basically ''VideoGame/SniperElite'' only improved. The plot of ''V2'' revolves around the German V2 rockets.
108	* ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'':
109	** ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehogCD'' can mean [[Platform/SegaGenesis Sega CD]], a PC CD, and as of the 2011 remake (which is not on a physical medium), [[TimeTravel Chrono Distortion]].
110	** When ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' got an UpdatedRerelease for the [[Platform/NintendoGamecube GameCube]], it received the subtitle "Sonic Adventure 2: Battle". The obvious meaning is the contrast between the Hero and Dark storyline and the ever-present Rival Battles in them. It's also a reference to the greatly expanded Multiplayer mode.
111	* Lead writer Walt Williams has acknowledged several ways the title of ''VideoGame/SpecOpsTheLine'' can be interpreted. It is typically taken as a reference to [[MoralEventHorizon the line which, once crossed, there is no going back]]; but Williams also argued that it could equally refer to the line between expectations and reality, when players of a game [[SubvertedTrope expect one thing but end up getting something quite different]].
112	* The ''VideoGame/{{Stellaris}}'' DLC ''Utopia''. Your species can now live in a Utopia, with limitless energy provided by a DysonSphere, living space not being an issue anymore thanks to giant artificial planets and even a RingWorld, a true PostScarcityEconomy which would qualify as a Utopia... But as we all know, UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans, and if said means are using other species as SlaveMooks, livestock, servants, [[WouldBeRudeToSayGenocide phasing out species through forced sterilization]] or straight up building huge concentration camps to extract just a tiny bit of extra labor from the FinalSolution you have enacted... The Utopia your species will live in justifies the sacrifices made along the way...
113	* ''Franchise/TouhouProject'':
114	** ''VideoGame/TouhouBunkachouShootTheBullet'' refers both to the game's ShootEmUp origins (in which characters ''fire'' bullets at enemies) and its main gameplay gimmick (in which you ''[[FirstPersonSnapshooter photograph]]'' bullets for higher scores and to clear them from the screen).
115	** ''VideoGame/DoubleSpoilerTouhouBunkachou'', on the other hand... Well, the "Double" can refer to either it being the second ''Shoot The Bullet'', or the inclusion of a second playable character.
116	* ''VideoGame/{{Uncharted}}'':
117	** ''VideoGame/UnchartedDrakesFortune'' can mean the fortunes of either Drake: both chased after El Dorado's location, and at the end [[spoiler:Nate does in fact walk away with a crate full of gold]].
118	** ''VideoGame/Uncharted3DrakesDeception'' refers both to Sir Francis Drake concealing his trip to Yemen (and decieving Elizabeth I that he found nothing), and [[spoiler:the revelation that Nathan Drake isn't actually his descendant]]. Deception is also a core theme of the game overall, with Marlowe and her crew using it frequently to unnerve their opposition, and drug influence being a focal point of several scenes.
119	** ''VideoGame/Uncharted4AThiefsEnd'' is a triple meaning title. It refers to the fact that it is the last game with Nathan as the protagonist in a much darker and life-threatening adventure, the fact that the game ends with [[spoiler:him selling the pirate gold he finds so he can stop being a thief and go into legitimate archeology]], and what ultimately happened to [[spoiler:Libertalia, the pirate colony. Two of the founders stole everyone else's money, killed the settlers, and then killed each other over it, meaning no one got the money.]]
120	** ''VideoGame/UnchartedTheLostLegacy'' refers four different lost legacies. One being Chloe's dad getting much further into his search for ruins of the Hoysala empire than she had realized, the second being Chloe following in his footsteps, both literally and figuratively by being an archaeologist. The third is that the capital of the Empire [[spoiler:wasn't where the King hid the tusk against the invading Persians and was merely a diversion from the real hiding place in the other capital]]. The fourth is Nadine, who has been outed from Shoreline - her father's company - since the events of ''A Thief's End''.
121	* The soundtrack playing during the fight against the TrueFinalBoss of ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' is called "''Hopes and Dreams/SAVE the world"''. SAVE the worlds refers that you are in fact saving the world from the boss, but also to the fact that, InUniverse, you SAVE the world each and every time you practice [[spoiler:SaveScumming]].
122	* The title of ''VideoGame/YokaiWatch'' can refer to either the actual watch that TheProtagonist receives, or the fact that you're constantly on the "watch", or hunt, for Yo-kai.
