In the cut-scene where Cloud fights Sephiroth (Destiny Odyssey VII), several shots are recreated from previous titles.
• The scene where Cloud and Sephiroth cross swords is similar to the scene from Crisis Core in which Sephiroth and Cloud battle in the Nibbleheim Reactor.
• After being knocked back, Cloud descends towards Sephiroth who then knocks Cloud back into the air. This is similar to Sephiroth's first appearance in Advent Children.
• After Cloud lands, the camera pans across Sephiroth's Masamune up to his face, similar to another scene from Advent Children.
• At the end of the scene where Cloud and Sephiroth face off, their poses are similar to their final battle from Final Fantasy VII.

Many characters that appeared in Dissidia 012 were originally supposed to be in Dissidia. These characters, left out for unknown reasons, were Vaan, Kain, Lighting, Yuna and Prishe.
