Actor Creator/DeForestKelley, famous for his role as [[Main/TheMcCoy Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy]] in ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'' passed away just a few weeks before the game was released. In the game's main campaign, if you are playing as the Federation, and if you have earned enough command points, you can add a CLH (a hospital ship) to your fleet. There is little point in doing so; even though it is based on the Texas-class Light Cruiser, its only armament is six of the weakest phasers in the game.

* One of the sidequests in ''VideoGame/GodOfWarRagnarok'' is a dedication to Jake Snipes, a gameplay programmer at Sony Santa Monica who passed away in 2020. As shared by Sam Hendrick, he and Jake were in talks over how they'd love to leave a symbol of the two's love in the game, and after Jake passed away and Sam asked the director Eric Williams if it would be possible to include a memorial to Jake in the game, it was then that Eric suggested the inclusion of the sidequest.
