* [[Video Games]] can hide that they use [[Time Travel]] as a motif quite well. Like the above example, just reading the title of this game on this page is a spoiler in its own right. Proceed at your discretion. {{spoiler|In ''[[BlazBlue]]'', there are very few people that give the [[An Ice Person|cold]] [[Not Good with People|as]] [[Jerkass|ice]] Jin Kisaragi pause. One of them is the [[Knight in Shining Armor]], Hakumen, who's been around for the last century or so: a being that Jin became [[Timey-Wimey Ball|in an alternate version]] of the [[Groundhog Day Loop]]. In another way, [[The Hero|Ragna the Bloodedge]] also has this issue. He's actually one of the two components of the Black Beast, the [[Eldritch Abomination]] that destroyed half of the world in the distant past. When he's sent back in time [[All There in the Manual|in one of the sidestories]], he dies by being absorbed into it while keeping it at bay for a whole year.}}
* In the first ''[[Marvel Ultimate Alliance]]'' game, [[Doctor Doom]]—in addition to being being the [[Big Bad]]—is also a [[Downloadable Content|downloadable character]] or can be gotten through the Gold Edition (both exclusive to the X-Box 360). If you have the playable Doom in your party when you meet the boss Doom, it's revealed that boss Doom is from the future. As mentioned in the examples in "Comic Books", playable Doom wasn't happy with his future self.
* ''[[Mortal Kombat|Mortal Kombat 11]]''; the younger versions of Liu Kang and, Kung Lao. and Jade are pretty terrified of [[Our Zombies Are Different| their older, revenant selves.]] Raiden is even more disturbed by the idea of Dark Raiden, and makes a point to avoid turning into him again.
* In ''[[Spider-Man Edge of Time]]'', {{spoiler|the [[Big Bad]] is revealed to be Peter Parker's future self, who has gone insane due to the death of all of his loved ones and the use of an anti-aging drug he used to allow himself to be alive in 2099. He planned on reshaping the universe in his own image in order to fix his past mistakes.}}
* A bizarre variant occurs in ''[[Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army]]'': {{spoiler|the villain is ''a'' [[Legacy Character|Raidou Kuzunoha]] from a post-[[Shin Megami Tensei II]] future, trying to [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong|prevent said future from coming about]] by turning Taisho-era Japan into a world superpower through supernatural means.}}
