#4 Chrono Cross. (PS1)



Chrono Cross has many incredible plot twists, and some are brilliantly incorporated into the game play itself!

The first involves the main character serge, and the antagonist Lynx in which Lynx swaps bodies with the hero, and you are forced to play as the antagonist for a sizable part of the game!

The second twist comes when you find out that Lynx was actually trying to prevent the worlds destruction by setting a series of events to prevent Lavos's reawakening!

The third, and most controversial twist comes when you learn that all the heroes from Chrono Trigger perished at the hand of Lynx, which made many fans very upset with Squaresoft.

#3 Final Fantasy VII. (PS1)



The first 3D Final Fantasy was loved by most fans, and critics for its emotional story, breathtaking graphics "at the time" and the villain Sephiroth!

The first involves the death of one of the main characters Aeris by Sephiroth running her through with his katana!

The second, and very unexpected plot twist is where Cloud learns that he was actually a failed clone of Sephiroth... but it turns out Sephiroth and JENOVA were giving him false memories! this was confirmed when Tifa went through Cloud's head to reveal his true past!

Plot twist #2 This is arguably the most ingenuous plot twist ever created in gaming history!
