Other appearances
Fire Emblem Cipher
Aircalibur is present as a skill on one card inFire Emblem Cipher:B05-025R Anima Child, Lugh. It is a manual-activation skill which, for a cost of flipping 1 bond card, adds the common "Anti-Fliers" skill to Lugh until the end of the turn, temporarily giving him an effective bonus of +30 to his attack power when fighting flying-type cards.

Trivia
- The unfinished version of Alacalibur fromThe Sacred Stones lacks its own icon, using theKiller Ballista icon as a placeholder. Its sound effects were not imported fromThe Binding Blade, so it instead cuts off the battle music (if battle animations are enabled), though sound effects associated with the caster or the impact with the enemy will still play.
