It also mentioned much earlier in [[Doctor Who/Recap/S2 E9 The Time Meddler|The Time Meddler]], where a Time Lord, the Monk, claims to have used anti-grav machines to help the construction of it.

* Oddly shows up as a combination NPC/weapon, in ''[[Disgaea Hour of Darkness]]''. It stands in Laharl's castle and can be asked about the strengths and weaknesses of various weapon types.

* Yet another ''[[Halo (series)|Halo]]'' example: the MJOLNIR Mk. V / Mk. VI [[Powered Armor]] worn by the hero and other SPARTAN-II graduates.

* Mjolnir is the focus of ''[[Tomb Raider]] Underworld'', which is the sequel to Legend. Just like Legend, the mystical "weapon" turns out to be {{spoiler|a key to enter Helheim}}. Wherein the [[Big Bad]] is attempting to wield Jormungandr, {{spoiler|a gigantic ancient machine that will bring about [[The End of the World as We Know It|Ragnarok]]}}
