Trivia / NieR Re[in]carnation

• Actor Allusion: This isn't the first time Ryota Takeuchi lent his deep voice to a small, adorable creature.
• Banned in China: The Cage is currently locked to potential players from Belgium due to laws concerning Loot Boxes and microtransactions there.
• Crossdressing Voices: Rion is voiced by Junko Minagawa, and for majority of the first arc, Fio's voice when Levania is in her body is done by Motoyuki Kawahara. Averted in the English dub, where Rion is voiced by Zeno Robinson instead.
• Marth Debuted in "Smash Bros.": As Dragon Quest X is the only title in the Dragon Quest series not released outside of Japan, the collab marks the international (proxy) debut of Seraphi as the basis of Rion's costume, with Netherlord Nergel, Valeria and Anlucia having already debuted in other entries of their home series.
• No Dub for You: As of 27 February 2023, the NA Server of Re[in]carnation no longer has English voice acting, leaving The Story of the People and the World the only story arc not dubbed in English. This also makes 10H the only playable character in the main cast without an official English voice actor.
• No Export for You: As of writing, unless a potential player gets a VPN, the Japanese version will be blocked for them, possibly due to the existence of the Global server. Speaking of which...
  • Asian fans of the game outside of Japan and South Korea got screwed over the release of the Global version of Reincarnation, where the game is both Region and IP blocked. Fortunately, Komoe Games released the game in Taiwan, Macau, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia on July 15th 2022... only for everything to come crashing down less than a year of its release when Komoe Games shut down the SEA/Taiwanese server on June 30 2023.
• Production Posse: Once again, Keiichi Okabe and company at MONACA provide the music for a Yoko Taro game.
• Role Reprise:
  • Japanese: For the collaboration events with NieR: Automata, NieR and Drakengard 3, Yui Ishikawa, Natsuki Hanae, Ayaka Suwa, Koji Yusa, Atsuko Tanaka, Mai Kadowaki and Maaya Uchida reprise their roles from those games. The Persona 5 Royal collaboration event also brings back Jun Fukuyama, Tomokazu Sugita, Rina Sato and Soichiro Hoshi to reprise their respective roles.
  • English: The English dub has Kira Buckland, Kyle McCarley and Cherami Leigh reprise their roles for 2B, 9S and A2 for the NieR: Automata event. The NieR event brings in Ray Chase, Laura Bailey and Julie Ann Taylor to return as The World Ender/Nier, Kainé and Emil, while the Drakengard 3 crossover brings Tara Platt back as Zero. Averted for the Persona 5 Royal collaboration event which does not bring back Xander Mobus, Matthew Mercer, Cherami Leigh (which is odd given that she did reprise her role as A2 earlier) and Robbie Daymond to reprise their roles.
• Trolling Creator: When asked how this game is linked to Nier and NieR: Automata, Yoko Taro replied that the game is linked "so Square Enix can make more money through gacha".
