Line 275:
* Many of the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' games features these, even going so far as to integrate them into gameplay so that the player has to finish certain tasks to get them.
** Particularly annoying in the second game. The game always ends with {{spoiler|a letter from King Mickey being opened and read, but not showing the player the contents}} and the bonus movie you can unlock {{spoiler|as before shows a ludicrously vague explanation of the plot for the '''prequel'''. Yes, a prequel hook}}.
** ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep]]'' turns out to have a [[Distant Finale]] that is probably the biggest sequel hook we've seen yet, and that [[Distant Finale]] is a continuation of the second game's sequel hook, which pretty much refers to the other 3 games made after ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' (''coded'', ''358/2 Days'', and ''Birth by Sleep''. Combine their hooks and you get a massive sequel hook for Sora's new journey in a possible 3rd game to {{spoiler|Reconnect Kingdom Hearts}}.
** [[Kingdom
** It's already safe to say the (as of now) unreleased ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D]]'' will have one as well, since it's going to lead directly into Kingdom Hearts III.
* All three main ''[[Metroid Prime]]'' games feature Sequel Hooks as part of their [[Multiple Endings|Segmented Endings]], unlocked via [[Hundred-Percent Completion]]. Yes, even ''Corruption'', though it's supposed to end the trilogy. In the first two, {{spoiler|the [[Big Bad]] reveals that she's [[Not Quite Dead]]}}, and in the third, {{spoiler|a mysterious ship follows Samus's to parts unknown}}.
Line 358:
* ''[[Axelay]]''. Dear god, Axelay. After (finally) beating the [[Harder Than Hard]] mode, you get a message saying "see you again at Axelay 2". Too bad it never came out at all.
* ''[[Simon the Sorcerer]] 2'' ended with {{spoiler|Simon still trapped in Sordid's body}}.
* ''[[Golden Sun: Dark Dawn]]'' ends with Matthew, Karis, and Tyrell coming back home, only to find that {{spoiler|the Mourning Moon has returned and ravaged their home, with their parents nowhere in sight}}.
* The Italian graphic adventure ''The Big Red Adventure'', itself a sequel of sorts to ''Nippon Safes Inc.'', ended with the three protagonists on a camel in the middle of the desert, with a "The End" written in faux-Arabic font instead of the faux-Cyrillic used throughout the game. No sequel was ever made however.
* The ending of the original ''[[Doom]]'' has our hero escaping Hell and returning to earth only to find that the demons he's been fighting have already invaded, setting up Doom II: Hell On Earth.
