* RelationshipVoiceActor:
** Creator/TroyBaker and Creator/TravisWillingham, who play the Rowe brothers, are close friends in real life - Travis was the best man at Troy's wedding, and vice versa. Travis himself is married to Creator/LauraBailey, who voices Abigail Walker.
*** The three have also worked together ''many'' times. Listing every single time they've done so would take far too much time to list.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Originally, the devs had planned to make the evil ending of ''VideoGame/InFamous2'' the canon ending leading into Second Son. However, when they looked at the achievement statistics for 2, they saw that the vast majority of players had seen the good ending but not the evil ending. Not wanting to alienate or lock out said players, they opted to make the good ending canon.

* DuelingGames:
** Formed one with ''VideoGame/SunsetOverdrive'', as the two games were both colorful WideOpenSandbox videogames with focus on maneuvering and elements of dystopian settings, on top of ''Second Son'' being exclusive to UsefulNotes/PlayStation4 and ''Sunset'' to be exclusive to UsefulNotes/XboxOne and both releasing in 2014. The overall outcome is arguable; both games received fairly similar reviews (with ''Sunset'' edging ''Infamous'' by one point) and ''Infamous'' proving to be a much bigger success, selling over a million copies in a week while ''Sunset'' struggled with sales.
