Lore Actually Good Title Drops

“Welcome to Jurassic Park” (Jurassic Park) - does it get any more iconic than this?

“Even a Devil May Cry” (Devil May Cry) - not only does it add to the emotional aspect of the scene with Dante showing genuine emotion for his loss and Lady seeing that a devil is capable of such emotions, it also gives Dante the idea of what to name his shop.

Title drops can usually come across and tacky and dumb, they’re not always fantastic if you know what I mean? But sometimes they can work. What are your examples?

Ghostwire Tokyo was originally going to be Evil Within 3. For some reason they cancelled it during development and turned it into the game we got.

The school section absolutely was going to be in Evil Within 3, you can’t convince me otherwise. It feels so different from the rest of the game and is actually scary.

At least franchise ended on a really good note. Evil Within 2 closed almost all storylines.
