The ''final bang'' is the day of judgment where we as humans are judged for the actions we have made against our own world (''earth'') or life itself (''all living organisms''). This sees in the trailer as Sam (Norman Reedus) and his fellow crew still is on earth tho with death (''grim reapers'') arriving for the taking of people into the purgatory. Being taken, which literally leads to people preferring suicide says a lot about this phase. Cause in purgatory we as humans are to be chosen if we are to go to heaven or hell - (Mostly hell, cause just think about the state of our earth...) All this seen through this theory goes well together with Kojima's first trailer where all ''life'' lies dead. Same with the opening quote:
To see a World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower, Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour. - William Blake, Auguries of Innocence (Poem).
Which literally refers to that any living thing whether organism, animal or plants have as much life as we humans have. We as humans aren't worth more or less than a flower. We all share the same amount of importance to our earth. Good examples of this are our human's stupidity when it comes to the removal of our rainforests and a normal day where we step on a wasp. This for us is a small thing which no purpose has but as a bigger picture it's a sin that one day will be judged. This goes well together with the overall theme of all the 3 trailers, where most things a connected together via small ropes which Kojima also refers to a lot in the making of the game.
So as the human species and the sins we berry we are now in crisis to be judged in purgatory. This is the lore we are playing in... alright?
Then with the talk of ''dimensions'' I see Sam (Norman Reedus) as a kind of porter (gatekeeper) who can travel between dimensions, which in my opinion is the dimensions of heaven or hell and in between.
And if we were to talk about the baby then the invisible beings (''death / grim reapers'') can't see people but can sense life. Whereas the baby which connected to the sensor can sense death. Which shows in the actions of the sensor as it's connected to the baby via the pod.
And on a final note. Norman dies but wakes up in the water. Hint (From water we are born to water we return) - Kojima's own vision of death as confirmed by IGN in their new vid ;)
