DmC Devil May Cry is an upcoming action game developed by Ninja Theory and published by Capcom for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.[1] The game will follow the adventure of a new version of the Devil May Cry series' main character Dante. It is the first in the series not to be developed internally by Capcom.[2]

Development

The game was officially announced by Capcom at their press conference during the 2010 Tokyo Game Show in September, confirming an earlier rumor in the May 2010 issue of Game Informer which said that the fifth Devil May Cry game would be developed by Ninja Theory. An announcement trailer was also released, giving players a taste of the new direction of the game.[3] The title will utilize the Unreal Engine.[4]

In an interview published on the videogame blog Kotaku, lead producer Alex Jones explained that Capcom contacted Ninja Theory because of the good impression their previous game Heavenly Sword had on Capcom staff. Jones stated that Capcom executives appreciated the way Ninja Theory builds games around the characters and not vice-versa: in the interview he stated that "Outside of creating just amazing looking art, Ninja Theory really do embed narrative in their games in a way that is relatively sophisticated, Japanese game design also starts with a character and then builds a game out from there."[5]

Initial reception to the new design of Dante and direction of the series was negative, as noted by several gaming websites.[6][7][8]

In a recent interview, Capcom unveiled that they knew that there would be negative backlash towards Dante's appearance but pressed forward with this direction in mind. They also explained that the fifth game is not a "reboot", as it was previously believed, but an origin story featuring a younger Dante who is just beginning to accept his unique heritage (with the implication that his black hair is actually dyed).[9]
