| ==Trivia==
| |
| *In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'', Peter was one of the four martyred Christian saints represented in the Martyrs [[Mnemonic sets#Martyrs|mnemonic set]]. The artwork for this set's mnemonics alluded to each saint's manner of martyrdom, with Peter's being depicted as an inverted cross.<ref name="ACPL">''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]''</ref>
