In the 2001 [[PlayStation 2]] video game ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'' by [[Square Enix]], there is an [[Spira (Final Fantasy)#Aeons and fayth|aeon]] named Yojimbo, a being the summoner [[Yuna (Final Fantasy)|Yuna]] can summon to battle, along with his dog Daigoro. He must be paid the game's form of money to use attacks varying in strength and weapon. With his design resembling that of Ancient Japanese designs, his worker-employer relationship with Yuna, the aesthetic with his weaponry and mannerisms, and the name of his dog, many elements from Ittō were used to design this summon.

In 2012, a [[pachinko]] game adaptation called ''Kozure Ōkami'' was released in Japan.<ref name="animenation"/>
