- Descended Creator: Bobby J. Park, Iggymob's Project Manager, is also the English voice actor for Yensen the Boostmaster in G.O.R.E.
- Directed by Cast Member: In the Latin American Spanish dub, Rafael Rivera was the ADR director, as well as the voice of Brandon Heat/Beyond the Grave, who also doubles as the narrator.
- Limited Special Collector's Ultimate Edition: Gungrave G.O.R.E Ultimate Enhanced Edition for Switch has a limited edition release that comes with a physical copy of the game with an extra reversible cover art (one side features a cover in the style of the first Gungrave game, while the other side features Grave and Rocketbilly from Overdose), Grave's alternate costume DLCs and a voucher for the Character Pass pack, a compendium book, and the original soundtrack on CD. This was released only in Japan, but it can be imported through Play-Asia and supports multiple text languages (although the Korean audio track for the mafia enemies was cut).
- No Dub for You: The first game's worldwide release included the original Japanese-language audio.
- Pre-Order Bonus: Those who pre-ordered the original version of Gungrave G.O.R.E received the Death Ronin and the Gungrave O.D. (2004) costumes along with the game. Similarly for the Ultimate Enhanced Edition on Nintendo Switch, those who pre-ordered the game received the Gungrave (2002)note , Gungrave O.D. (2004), and Younger Grave costumes. All extra pre-order costumes has since became for purchase on their respective platforms.
- The Other Darrin:
- Zell Condorbrave was voiced by Banjo Ginga in Overdose but is voiced by Akio Ōtsuka come his return in G.O.R.E.. It is likely that Ginga was replaced on account of having contracted COVID during the game's production, though he recovered later.
- Balladbird Lee was voiced by Masaya Onosaka in the first game and by Takehito Koyasu in the anime.
- Kumi Sakuma voiced Mika in the anime. After Tomoko Kawakami's 2008 death, Sakuma took over the character full-time beginning with Gungrave VR.
- Role Reprise:
- With the exception of Beyond the Grave (who was The Voiceless in the first game) and Balladbird Lee, all of the game's voice actors reprised their roles for the anime.
- In G.O.R.E., Tomokazu Seki, Fumihiko Tachiki and Kumi Sakuma reprise their respective roles of Beyond the Grave, Mika Asagi and Bunji Kugashira 13 years after their last appearance in VR.
- Schedule Slip: G.O.R.E. was initially slated for a 2019 release before being delayed to 2020 and then subsequently again to 2022.
- Sequel Gap: Thirteen years passed between Overdose and VR, the latter of which is more of a filler game and prologue for G.O.R.E, the "true" sequel, which was released in 2022, altogether making a eighteen year gap between "main" installments.
- Studio Hop: The first game was developed by Red Entertainment. Then, Ikusabune took over development for Overdose. For VR and G.O.R.E, development was instead handled by Iggymob.
- What Could Have Been:
- Sherry was set to appear as a boss (named "Nekurora" / "Necrola") in the first game but didn't make the cut. She would have been a mutant boss similar to Big Daddy with Frickin' Laser Beams and a Mind Rape special attack.
- Grave's design is based on the unused concept for Gazelle the Peacemaker, a character who would have been introduced in the unreleased game Trigun: The Planet Gunsmoke as a new member of the Gung-Ho Guns. The game itself was created from the remnants of the cancelled title.
- Iggymob's first pitch of revitalizing the Gungrave franchise through a mobile game, but the idea was scrapped and instead became a VR game. Similarly, they originally planned to make Gungrave G.O.R.E as an open-world Souls-like game, but likely due to poor reception of the two VR games, that concept was too scrapped in favor of game that harkens back to the series' roots.
