The Devil May Cry series has thrilled millions of fans all over the world with its stylish, over-the-top action and beloved action hero, Dante. The series has sold more than 5.8 million units worldwide and Capcom will be hoping that Dante’s fight against demons, devils, and various other sinister enemies bent on conquering all, will do enough to impress.
Armed with your trusty sword, blazing guns, and over-the-top attitude, it’s going to be tough battle to save the fate of humanity.
