DMC: Devil May Cry demo available next week
Capcom has announced that a demo of DMC: Devil May Cry will be available to download from the PlayStation Store and Xbox Live Marketplace next week.
The demo, which will contain two levels and a boss battle, will be available in North America on November 20 and in Europe on November 21. Players who download the demo will get a taste of “a few of the game’s difficulty modes,” as well as the remixed Son of Sparda mode (which requires completion of the demo to unlock). A variety of weapon upgrades and “maybe a few secrets” also await those who test out Dante’s next adventure.
The full version of DMC: Devil May Cry will be released for the PS3 and Xbox 360 on January 15, 2013. A PC version will follow sometime later in the year.

DMC: Devil May Cry getting Vergil-focused DLC chapter
DMC: Devil May Cry, Ninja Theory’s reboot of the Devil May Cry franchise, is still on track for a January 15, 2013 release on the PS3 and Xbox 360. Today, Capcom announced that players who pre-order the game from GameStop (USA) or EB Games (Canada) will be able to download an additional bonus chapter, featuring Dante’s brother Vergil, for free.
“Vergil’s Downfall” will be available shortly after the game’s release and will contain “hours of new gameplay, new enemies, and weapons and combos that are unique to Vergil.”
If you’d prefer not to pre-order the game but still want to slice and dice demons as Vergil, you’ll be able to. “Vergil’s Downfall” will be offered as a separate download for $8.99 (720 Microsoft Points).

DMC: Devil May Cry slashes its way into stores on January 15, 2013
Another one bites the 2012 dust. Capcom has announced that DMC: Devil May Cry, the long-awaited reboot of Dante’s early demon days, will be released for the PS3 and Xbox 360 on January 15, 2013. A PC version was also announced, which will be released later in 2013.
In addition to announcing the release date, Capcom confirmed that DMC: Devil May Cry will make a big splash at this year’s E3 Expo. The publisher also revealed a new character, Kat:
Kat is a former runaway that joined The Order very early in her life. She is a medium and a gifted psychic who can see into Limbo, the demon realm, but not directly interact with it in the way that Dante does. She is the right hand girl to the Leader of The Order and devotes her life to him, often putting herself in grave danger to gather intelligence from Limbo.
There is a sweet innocence about Kat’s world view and logic, but when it comes to her specialist subject, the demon realm, she is an undoubted expert. Kat is The Order’s “eyes and ears” and is tasked with guiding Dante on his mission through Limbo.
See just how “sweet” and “innocent” Kat is after the break (I swear, someone needs to buy Capcom a dictionary). (more…)
Three new trailers for DMC: Devil May Cry
Dante is back once again to banish some demons with his signature brand of gravity defying flippy-shooty-slashy-wahey! DMC: Devil May Cry looks like a spectacularly fresh entry into the series while still retaining the essence of what makes a Devil May Cry game. Which is to say, you can still make some demonic marionettes hover in the air with only your bullets for support.
What really stands out in DMC is the inspired art direction. The game looks gorgeous and will be a welcome break from anything remotely realistic. Bright colors amalgamate into a hyper-real world for you and Dante to explore.
And from the gameplay trailers you can find after the break, the rest of the game looks to be on par with the spectacular visuals. Don’t believe me? Have a peek below and see what you think. (more…)

DMC: Devil May Cry is officially a reboot of the series
It’s official: The new Devil May Cry game is a reboot of the franchise, not a prequel, reports Degenki Playstation. When DMC: Devil May Cry was announced for the PS3 and Xbox 360 at TGS last year, it was apparent that this wasn’t the Dante we all know and love. He even had a new emo-tastic look, complete with white hair and disheveled demeanor.
Degenki Playstation goes on to say that this iteration of the Devil May Cry series takes place in parallel universe (with a completely different Dante) to the one from the original Devil May Cry series, which very well could mean that we could still get a Devil May Cry 5 sometime in the future.
The magazine says that this shift in universe was actually Ninja Theory’s idea.
Also in the wake of this DMC news, a series of new screenshots for the upcoming game were released yesterday, shedding even more light on the upcoming game. Hit the jump to view all ten screenshots.

DMC: Devil May Cry gameplay trailer ninjas its way out of Gamescom
Capcom and developer Ninja Theory are back with another helping of DMC: Devil May Cry gameplay video. First revealed at E3, Dante’s Gamescom debut showcases the demon hunter’s air combos and even a split second of white hair.
DMC: Devil May Cry is in development on the PS3 and Xbox 360 for a 2012 release. For those that are still worried that Dante doesn’t look right, Capcom has assured us that key members from the Devil May Cry team are working with Ninja Theory to make sure everything comes together in perfect harmony… like ebony and ivory.

Dante levels a church in new DMC trailer
Capcom is keeping pretty quiet on their Devil May Cry reboot/prequel DMC: Devil May Cry. The game, which stars a young (and dark-haired) Dante, is in development for the PS3 and Xbox 360 at Ninja Theory. And aside from the new trailer above, the game has mostly been pushed to the back of Capcom’s E3 2011 slate.
Although I guess now we Dante can change to his “classic” hairstyle during battle.
