2014
23. Batman Arkham Knight – “Father to Son” Announce Trailer
It’s rare to hear Thomas Wayne’s thoughts about his son, Bruce – thoughts which are finally conveyed to us in the “Father to Son” trailer. Suffice it to say that it’s heartbreaking, lending a sense of gravitas to the whole thing.
24. Bloodborne – “Face Your Fears” Debut Trailer
Love Dark Souls, but tired of medieval knights and dragons? Needless to say, the Victorian gothic aesthetic, haunting soundtrack, and absurd amounts of bloodletting presented in this trailer leaves us speechless.
25. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare – Campaign Story Trailer
You give Kevin Spacey all the power in the world, and you expect things to be fine??
26. Child of Light – Launch Trailer
The loneliness of growing up, and the pain of being separated from innocence, all captured in two and half minutes of gorgeous hand-painted visuals and haunting music. Watch and feel your heart tightening in your chest.
27. Dead Island 2 – Official E3 Announce Trailer
They made us cry, now they’re making us laugh. This trailer tells the story of a self-made man who likes his morning jogs along the sun-soaked streets of California. That, plus zombies, of course!
28. The Division – Official Cinematic Trailer
This trailer takes us on a tour of abandoned living spaces and deserted roads, marred by signs of past tragedies and blanketed by a miasma of ghostly voices. They’re the only hints about what has befallen the city, yet the horror is utterly convincing. Definitely belongs to the best video game trailers category.
29. Dragon Age Inquisition – “The Breach” Official Trailer
There’s fighting in all corners of Thedas in this trailer, but best of all, you get to see your party members up close and personal as they come together and kick some major tail. It truly is the adventurous spirit’s dream fantasy world … as long as you don’t mind dragons burning your home and roasting your neighbors alive every once in a while.
30. Final Fantasy XV – TGS 2014 Trailer
A bunch of pretty boys road tripping in a sleek, sexy car? Ginormous kaijus to dodge? Jaw-dropping vistas and picture-perfect towns to stroll around in? Color us impressed, Square Enix! Maybe the wait was worth it!
31. Firewatch – August 2014 Reveal Trailer
You don’t need ghosts or aliens to inject a huge dose of creepy into a genuinely intriguing mystery. This trailer spooks us with sunsets, forests, and the uncertainty in the characters’ quivering voices.
32. The Flame in the Flood
A beautifully eerie melody, an exodus from a haunted swamp battered by furious winds, and a visually arresting art style that calls to mind the weirdest side of Tim Burton, and you’ve got a survival game like no other trailer has depicted.
33. League of Legends – “A New Dawn” Cinematic
Running, running, and more running. And oh, a whole lot of running. Explains why everyone’s in excellent shape. Looks damn good, though.
34. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain – E3 2014 Trailer
This trailer’s not afraid to shy away from the ugliness of war. Child soldiers, torture, murder… not to mention that song. Talk about a depressing five minutes.
