The boss Phoenix Magnion has an attack that summons ghostly images of the characters Vile, Agile, Bit and Colonel (who were introduced in Mega Man X1 - X4, respectively) to attack Zero. Interesting facts to note is that two of the enemies, Agile and Bit, are never actually met in gameplay by Zero in either X2 or X3, and Bit, for the first time, is seen in gameplay using his shield that was formerly only seen in concept and other official art, not gameplay.

Dante used the name Tony Redgrave as an alias in his early days of demon slaying. When asked about the name, director Hideki Kamiya stated that "Antonio Redgrave was a journalist that Dante respected, so he used it as his fake name during his days as a mercenary..." In Bayonetta, Luka's father, Antonio Redgrave, was a world famous journalist that documented supernatural events, people, and places. It's very likely that the two Tonys may be the same person.

Attachment In the Doom II final level "Icon of Sin", the boss is supposed to be a giant demon head with a fragment missing from its forehead. It says, "To win the game, you must kill me, John Romero!", distorted and in reverse to sound like a demonic chant. One can use the "noclip" cheat to enter the boss and see Romero's severed head which is skewered on a post. John Romero is the creator of the Doom series. The staff didn't like Romero due to his egotistical personality. They decided to get him back by making him the final boss.
