Synopsis

Taylor Swift turns "End Game" into a globe-trotting night out across Miami, Tokyo, and London. She cruises on a yacht and rides through Miami with Future, joins Ed Sheeran for a lively Tokyo karaoke session, and spends the London section partying with friends, riding a red bus, visiting a pub, crossing Millennium Bridge, and stopping at a kebab shop. The video presents Swift as carefree, glamorous, and surrounded by people she trusts, matching the song's celebration of loyalty and lasting romance.

Factoids & Trivia

  • The video was released on January 12, 2018, and was filmed in Miami, Tokyo, and London.
  • The London scenes were shot in October 2017 and use recognizable locations including the Bull & Gate pub in Kentish Town, Millennium Bridge, Piccadilly Circus, Southbank, and the Kentish Delight kebab shop.
  • The production deliberately mixes luxury imagery with ordinary London nightlife. The contrast between yachts and sports cars in Miami and buses, pubs, takeaway food, and a black cab in London gives the video a more personal and playful tone.
  • Future appears in the Miami sequences, including scenes filmed on a yacht and in a Lamborghini. Ed Sheeran joins Swift for the Tokyo section, where they appear at a karaoke party.
  • Sheeran said he wrote his verse after dreaming about the song. Swift's behind-the-scenes footage also shows her playing Scrabble on her phone while waiting between takes.
  • The dancers in the club scenes had to perform without hearing the actual track. This helped keep the song from leaking before its official release.
  • Snake imagery appears throughout the video, including a snake-themed drinking straw, snakeskin clothing, and a brief reference to the classic mobile game Snake.
  • Fans spotted several recurring Swift references, including the number 13 on a license plate and radio display, as well as a "J" necklace that was widely connected to her song "Call It What You Want."
  • Tokyo's background signs contain phrases connected to the song and the *Reputation* era, including "End Game," "A team," "Your first string," and "Reputation."
  • Katy Perry was rumored to make an appearance before the video's release, but she does not appear in the finished clip.

Lyrics

I wanna be your end game
I wanna be your first string
I wanna be your A-Team
I wanna be your end game, end game

Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me, we got big reputations
Aah, and you heard about me
Ooh, I got some big enemies (yeah)
Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me would be a big conversation
Aah, and I heard about you (yah)
Ooh, you like the bad ones, too
