^ the game is a loose adaptation of the film which is a loose adaptation of the novel written by Dante himself (which is just called inferno, not really all that relevant just interesting) but not using events from the, very well written, book would be kind of strange too me considering how the divine comedy (the name of the book trilogy)  has influenced out modern media and there are some events that could aid Dante in the Death Battle (as well as some that would add some pretty funny Boomstick moments).

yes, Dante was a real person but the real life Dante was more of a writer than a soldier, if he was to appear in a Death Battle it would likely be Dante as the character (from the books, animated film, and game).
