==Trivia==
*When breaking obstacles and before activating his Underworld Spin Slash, Cerberus wields the Adamantium Claws. A Pickaxe exclusive to Wolverine.
*Cerberus is the second Character to retain his Special Abilities from when he was a Boss. The first being The Foundation.
**However he lacks the Combat Music and voicelines he had prior, does not grant the Who's the Boss? Elimination Accolade when defeated and isn't taller like other Bosses.
***The only voice lines Cerberus retains are his Underworld Dash and Underworld Spin Slash Strike voice lines as they are tied to his Special Abilities rather than his AI.
***This is probably due to the fact that to trigger his fight and be rewarded with his weapon, he must be challenged to a dual, unlike other Character Boss hybrids.
*Cerberus' use of the Howl Emote likely calls back to the same animation he does when appearing during his Phase 3 in Chapter 5: Season 2.

===Before Chapter 5===
At an unknown point Hades and Cerberus competed against Poseidon and Phinster in a surfing competition, although Poseidon managed to win." Anyways, we're there, at the starting line, and guess who we see next to us? Go on, guess! HADES! SURFIN' CERBERUS! Phinster and I won, of course. God of the sea, here." -Poseidon when asked about Dolphin Surfing, Chapter 5: Season 2
===Chapter 5: Season 1===
The mosaic that Odyssey was searching for has Cerberus' heads on it. A constellation symbolizing Cerberus, in the form of a hound's head, and a carving of him could be seen on Pandora's Box.
===Chapter 5: Season 2===
After Pandora's Box was opened, Cerberus came along with the other Gods to punish mortals for opening it and releasing the souls of The Underworld. He guards Grim Gate, the entrance to The Underworld."To get to 'The Underworld,' one way to get there is crossing the river at Grim Gate... where the three-headed guard dog Cerberus awaits." -Chapter 5: Season 2 Blog Post Meanwhile, Hades is contacted by The Oracle and The Looper, with a proposal, namely to stop his brother Zeus.Chapter 5: Season 2 Story Quests Oracle's Snapshot Once The Looper proves that they are strong enough by battling Cerberus, Hades continues to remain neutral in the conflict. Zeus wants Cerberus to get info on The Looper, a command which Cerberus is willing to ignore as long as The Looper helps him find an "artifact", a tennis ball that Hades gave him, which he ended up losing."Zeus has asked me to dig up information about your actions. A command I am willing to ignore... if you help me. My master entrusted me with a powerful artifact. And unfortunately, it was... misplaced...." -Cerberus, Chapter 5: Season 2 Story Quests Cerberus' Snapshot The Loopers digs up the spots Cerberus thinks the artifact is, to no avail.

ARE YOU DONE MESSING AROUND NOW?!" -Cerberus’s other heads, Chapter 5: Season 2 Story Quests Cerberus' Snapshot It turns out Hades hid the ball for "safekeeping" during Zeus' tempest, but after seeing how desperate he is to take it back, he puts the scent of the ball on The Looper and tells them to play with Cerberus so he can release his energy. Once playtime is over, Cerberus picks up the ball's scent."I took Cerberus'... artifact away for safekeeping during Zeus' tempest. I've since realized that taking it away has made him agiated. And desperate to find it himself. I'm putting the scent of his artifact on you. Pay Cerberus a visit. Play with him. Once he's blown off some pent-up energy, he'll pick up the scent from you, and follow the trail." -Hades, Chapter 5: Season 2 Cerberus' Snapshot The Looper digs it up, later delivering it to Cerberus' dog house.
===Chapter 5: Season 3===
While most of the gods fled from the Island after Zeus' defeat to find new domains, with the exception of Artemis, Hades asks Cerberus to wait behind on the Island to wait for the Queen”YOU'D BETTER CLEAR OUT BEFORE SHE ARRIVES, OR I MIGHT BITE YA, HA HA HA. DO NOT TALK TO THE QUEEN. DO NOT BOTHER THE QUEEN. SHE IS TAKING A LITTLE VACATION AND NEEDS HER REST. - Cerberus, NPC Dialogue., still guarding The Underworld and its Gate.
