* ''VideoGame/{{Afterimage}}'': Renee can learn the "Judgement Cut" weapon skill for the Blade-type (katana) weapons. By its name and weapon association, it's a reference to Vergil's signature {{charged attack}} "Judgement Cut" (or [[InconsistentSpelling "Judgment Cut"]]) with his [[IaijutsuPractitioner katana Yamato]] in the ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry'' franchise, though the "Judgment Cut" of this game has a different animation than Vergil's. The more blatant ''Devil May Cry'' Vergil reference however is shown near the endgame. [[spoiler:Red Renee]] can perform [[DesperationAttack a powerful attack at low health]] which involves unsheating the katana, followed by a FlashStep, multiple huge slashes appearing all over the screen, then ending with dramatically sheating the weapon as the boss has their back turned from you. It's a replica or {{homage}} to Vergil's [[LimitBreak "Judgement Cut End"]] from ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry4'' and ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry5'', albeit all the visual effects are colored red to match [[spoiler:Red Renee's theme]] instead of Vergil's blue.

** The final boss, [[spoiler:Jubileus]], is a reimagining of The Savior from ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry4'', which Kamiya admits using as [[InspirationForTheWork inspiration for this game]]. Not only is [[spoiler:Jubileus]] an {{Expy}} of The Savior, the late-game plot of ''Bayonetta'' is also similar to that of ''[=DMC4=]'' - [[spoiler:Both are giant statues of deified figures (Sparda and Jubileus), controlled by a mad cultist priest (Sanctus and Father Balder) who belongs to some angelic organization (The Order of the Sword and the Lumen Sages), and a DistressedDamsel important to the player character (Kyrie and Jeanne). The main protagonist of both games (Nero and Bayonetta) are also absorbed into the statues, but are saved by the {{Deuteragonist}} (Dante and Jeanne). In both cases, the final phase of the fight begins after said damsel is saved by the protagonist, when the cult leader gains full control of the damaged remains of the statue, and both are beaten once and for all when said cultist is utterly destroyed in some way (obliterating The Savior's upper body and kicking Jubileus into the sun)]].

* ''VideoGame/PunishingGrayRaven'': Alpha's [[IaijutsuPractitioner Iaijutsu moves and animations]] are inspired by Vergil. This eventually evolved into an AscendedMeme for ''P:GR'' - [[invoked]]The [[FriendlyFandoms overlapping playerbase]] between ''P:GR'' and the ''Devil May Cry'' series has led to certain Vergil-related memes and nicknames being used on Alpha. This includes calling her [[FanNickname "Vergil's Daughter"]] (which resulted from [[Memes/DevilMayCry some meme trend]] within the anime/[[GachaGames gacha game]] fans of the ''Devil May Cry'' community where any anime girl who fights using Iaijutsu and/or directly copies Vergil's moves and effects get labeled as his "Daughter"). Kuro Game has noticed the trend and when Crimson Weave Alpha was released, they implemented a game emote depicting her [[https://imgur.com/QVn5X56 sitting in a plastic chair]], referencing the "Vergil Chair" meme spawned from ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry5''.
