Trivia
- Vyriss's first preview showcased the Game Master Coil and the Game Master Stars before their initial release, without any details. It also showed a new version of Green Hill Zone.
- Crimson themes of maps were supposed to be in Hardcore Mode, as told by Vyriss, but they do not exist in-game currently.
- As of Version 40, players are able to access Hardcore Mode directly from the Menu, anytime while playing.
- Previously, players had to rejoin the game to access Hardcore Mode.
- As of Version 41, players are able to enable Pacifist Mode in the menu, allowing you to play Hardcore without the use of gears. This changes the gameplay drastically, being unfair at times.
