Trivia[]
- Cube Assassin's Boss Outfit ID is CID_NPC_Athena_Commando_F_CloakedAssassin.
- The Boss Outfit, named U with the description of NPC, while being a near exact copy of the release Cube Assassin Outfit complete with the same introduction season, reactivity, and set placement, notably has a unique trail when moving. Which was not carried over to the release Outfit.
- Cube Assassin's size is Much Larger than the other Bosses. Being the first Boss to establish the Much Larger size. This trait persists with her later reappearances.
- If a player were to use a Sideways Scythe against Cube Assassin in a fight, she would only have health and no shields.
- Before Update v18.20, the Shockwave Launcher had no effect on her.
- Cube Assassin is the first humanoid Boss to have an extra vulnerability point.
- Cube Assassin normally cannot be knocked when her health is drained. But with the help of a glitch that lowers her health to 100 upon spawn she can be knocked down. Complete with the Carry and Shakedown options.
- Even more bizarre, She is still capable of using her Zero Crystal Dash while knocked.
- If Cube Assassin is defeated during this she will not re-appear as a Character.
- Cube Assassin was the last new Boss of Chapter 2.

Trivia[]
- While Cube Assassin's files are preserved for Horde Rush's reruns, her Polygonal Barrier has become heavily bugged past Chapter 2: Season 8. As she will never attempt to properly summon it after appearing.
- Additionally during Chapter 3: Season 4, her Zero Crystal Dash would play Huntmaster Saber's Rift Warp End voicelines due to his files still being present at the time.
- Unlike most other Bosses, Cube Assassin's voicelines have their volume set very low. Causing them to become very difficult to hear in-game.
