* JurisdictionFriction: The Arc police forces hate it when Neuron show up to an investigation, since they take over the case with no ceremony and it always seems to end with them linking it to a gate incident, cutting off the [[WasOnceAMan Aberrations]], and taking all the glory. There's not exactly anyone they can complain to either as Neuron is nominally part of the police force themselves. In truth, if Neuron show up it's because a Chimera is expected, the existence of which is classified - being InvisibleToNormals and immune to conventional weapons is bad enough without their existence causing mass panic. The problems with this are shown during the first investigation, as two PO'ed cops refuse to say much of anything; eavesdropping reveals witnesses reported large, shadowy hands dragging people through gates, which they dismissed as hysteria and therefore didn't report, but is vital information to Neuron.

* ProductDeliveryOrdeal: A sidequest available early on in File 06 consists of buying a tall ice cream to a girl in Harmony Square. The girl is located in a walkway reached upstairs, while the ice cream stand is located past a crosswalk to the other side of the street. The player's character has to buy the tallest version of the ice cream (Avalanche Special) and carefully carry it across the street and then walk upstairs to give it to the girl in the walkway. The ice cream will frequently lean between sides, thus requiring a lot of balance while moving; and the character also has to avoid clashing against any person passing by, especially when going upstairs to the girl's location.

* SpiritualSuccessor: In a way, the game can be considered an indirect revival of the cancelled ''VideoGame/{{Scalebound}}'', with both being Platinum-developed games published by a first-party hardware developer as an intended system exclusive (''Scalebound'' being published by Microsoft for the Xbox One, ''Astral Chain'' being published by Nintendo for the Switch), and both using the same basic concept of controlling both the player character and a connected PuppetFighter who assists in combat (''Scalebound'' allowed you to control a giant dragon, while ''Astral Chain'' allows you to use different Legion).
** It’s also a successor of sorts to another Platinum game, ''VideoGame/TransformersDevastation''. Both are cel-shaded action games that use a highscore-based grading system rather than one requiring the best time, no damage, and best combo that previous Platinum games used. Both also have a finisher at the end of a combo that can only be activated by pressing a button when a light flashes. The Legion Skills are also baaed off the cooldown-based abilities in ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan''.
** The game has also been considered a spiritual successor of ''VideoGame/ChaosLegion'', another Capcom hack-and-slash game that also revolves around the player summoning various Legions at the player's beck and call during combat.
** It’s also a successor of sorts to another Platinum game, ''VideoGame/TransformersDevastation''. Both are cel-shaded action games that use a highscore-based grading system rather than one requiring the best time, no damage, and best combo that previous Platinum games used.

** Perhaps as an allowance for having to control two characters at once, the ranking system is ''much'' more forgiving than most StylishAction games. Damage doesn't factor into it, time isn't as important as usual, and there is no combo count to keep up; just use many different Legion Abilities and get lots of Chain Binds, Sync Attacks and Finishing Moves and an S+ isn't too difficult.

* PlayerNudge: An unusual example of game design consciously nudging players away from something.

The game seems to encourage simply completing the plot at a steady pace first, then coming back to scour everything from HundredPercentCompletion.
