Line 31:
** Cranked [[Up to Eleven]] with Platinum Games's build, which is even more gratuitously gory than the KojiPro prototype. To give you an idea, a shot of the trailer consists of Raiden slashing a soldier's body for five seconds, each cut leaving a visible mark, before a final cut up and bursts the poor fellow into a hundred bloody bits. [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill|Comepletely unnecessary after the first cut?]] Perhaps. [[Rule of Cool|Incredibly cool]]? Hell. Yes.
* [[Clean Cut]]: Just about anything Raiden's sword slices will be cut through with a perfectly straight slice.
* [[Corrupt Politician]]/[[Well -Intentioned Extremist]]: A leaked conversation from Colorado Senator and current 2020 Presidential candidate Steven Armstrong with his speech writer has him basically talking about the boost in his approval rating in such a way that implied that he conned the populace by putting a "spin" on things. On the other hand, the speech also implies that he genuinely wants to restore America as the sole world superpower, albeit by instigating a new American Revolutionary War.
* [[Eyepatch of Power]]: Raiden's design is a little different than his ''[[Metal Gear Solid 4]]'' design. He's got some sort of eye-covering piece strapped around his head and one eye. Its presence might be explained on April 30th, if the site's teaser medical report (which has redactions) is anything to go by.
** [[Eye Scream]]: It's strongly implied that he lost his left eye in a fight with Sam.
Line 40:
* [[Hot Blooded]]: Raiden, of all people, has become this.
* [[Here We Go Again]]: The Demo for Revengeance will be bundled, once again, with the Zone of The Enders HD Collection.
* [[In Soviet Russia, Trope Mocks You]]: In previous ''[[Metal Gear]]'' installments, the player has to hide from the enemy. In this game, enemies actually hide from the player, although namely because they intend to ambush the player, according to a podcast.
** Before ''Metal Gear Solid 2'' was released, ''Zone of Enders'' came with a demo of MGS2. The ''Zone of Enders HD Collection'' comes with a demo of ''Rising''.
* [[Katanas Are Just Better]]: [[The Men in Black]] wield them, and Metal Gear RAY's "arms" have been equipped with them.
Line 60:
* [[Scary Black Man]]: The african soldier in the trailers, especially the "Sword" trailer, qualifies. Of patticular note is his particularly brutal interrogation of a soldier regarding leaked information to the enemy, to which he threatens to kill his family if he doesn't admit to it, and also implies to planning to rape the interrogated soldier's wife before killing her.
* [[Shock and Awe]]: Electricity can be seen coursing around Raiden's blade and body.
* [[Shout Out]]: Shortly after Raiden kicked a soldier into a black car hard enough to nearly flip the car over and [[That Poor Car|set off the car alarm]] in the VGA 2011 trailer, Raiden says "Too easy!" in a voice that sounded very similar to [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]], shortly before [[Family -Unfriendly Death|cutting the soldier up into salami]].
* [[Spiritual Successor]]: The combat has a strong resemblance to [[Platinum Games]]' Bayonetta.
** [[X Meets Y]]: It looks a lot like a combination of Bayonetta and Vanquish.
