** Promotional images featured art for an R. Corp Pack Rhino ID for Gregor, which was never released. Instead, he received G. Corp Manager Corporal as his launch 000 ID while the Pack Rhino ID would eventually go to Meursault later on. Unused art also suggests that his Liu ID would've originally given him an organic hand and had him fight with a sword instead of his fists.

* DummiedOut: An image within Kurokumo Rodion's files has Yi Sang standing in the background as a fellow Kurokumo member. The official image that's used in-game has Hong Lu replacing him, as Yi Sang would become a Blade Lineage Salsu instead (the Kurokumo and the Blade Lineage Identities share the same universe, as they are in a rivalry).

moving this elsewhere because Mook Promotion is a trope, not trivia.


* MookPromotion: During the initial release of the game and the following first few months, Rodion's Kurokumo identity saw her as a Kurokumo ''henchman'', not a wakashu. This is likely due to the fact her design was based off of the henchmen from Library of Ruina (with other Kurokumo identities like Ryoshu and Hong Lu being based off of Sayo and Yang respectively). However most likely due to the disparity of her being 000 while Hong Lu, a wakashu (and therefore higher than her in rank lore-wise) was only a 00, she eventually saw a promotion from henchman to wakashu.

Trivia cannot be played with, non-omnipresent examples cannot be averted and examples cannot direct to other examples


* ChristmasRushed: Ultimately [[AvertedTrope averted]]. The release date of the game was supposed to be December 23, 2022, mainly because of symbolic value, but as is seen in ReleaseDateChange, it was ultimately decided that more time was needed and having a functioning game was chosen over said symbolic value.

** There's cut dialogue revealing the installment of recordings of Yuri's voice to the GPS, pressing Gregor's TraumaButton in the process. Given Project Moon's penchant for GameplayAndStoryIntergration, this was likely intended to explain how there can be announcer voices of dead characters like Yuri and Effie.

** The game originally was planned to have all 12 Sinners in battle at once, though that was likely scrapped due to how insanely demanding this would be both graphically and gameplay-wise.

** The game originally was planned to have all 12 Sinners in battle at once, though that was likely scrapped due to how insanely demanding this would be both graphically and gameplay-wise. However, with the raising of the Sinner cap to 7 for certain levels as of Canto IV, the possibility of a 12-Sinner BattleshipRaid in the future seems decently likely.

Due to the delay, this was no longer true, which is reflected upon in the story now with the characters commenting on the extremely strange celebration of Christmas while it is nowhere near that holiday.

* WorkingTitle: When the game was first teased, it was referred to as "LC-B", as in "Lobotomy Corporation-Branch". To prevent confusion with ''Lobotomy Corporation'', which is also abbreviated as 'LC', it is not uncommon to see it referred to as 'LCB' among fans.

* ReleaseDateChange: The game was initially stated to be released in winter 2022, later specified to be December 23 of that year for symbolic reasons. However, in the same announcement, it was confirmed to be delayed at least to late February 2023 since several aspects of the game took longer to implement properly (i.e the PC port, to avoid a PortingDisaster). Whereas this understandably disappointed many fans, especially because they announced to at least massively slow down content teasers that had been semi-constant up until then, they were relieved at the same time because Christmas is a bad release time marketing and support-wise. Further softening the blow was the [[https://www.reddit.com/r/gachagaming/comments/ywpo4v/nikke_a_collateral_of_game_bugs_game_issues_that/ disastrous release]] of ''VideoGame/GoddessOfVictoryNikke'' two weeks before the announcement, which was bug-ridden [[note]] Notably, some people being banned for using an emulator such as Ldplayer even though NIKKE has a partnership with said emulator [[/note]], leading to many fans pointing out that if it were to be released at the scheduled date, its release would go not unlike that of ''NIKKE'' - and speculation that a hidden reason for Limbus' delay ''was'' the buggy release that ''NIKKE'' had.
