It was first reported several months ago that Devil May Cry 5 may be announced officially in the not too distant future. Those reports turned out to be true when Devil May Cry 5 was officially announced at E3 2018 earlier this month. A confirmed release date has not yet been provided but Capcom is aiming for a release before March 2019. A new report claims that Devil May Cry 5 development is now 75 percent complete.
This is certainly good news for fans of this franchise who have been waiting for a long time for Capcom to launch a completely new Devil May Cry title. The report in the latest issue of Famitsu that development work on Devil May Cry 5 is 75 percent complete is a good sign as it suggests that Capcom may not have to delay the game.
It also provide some story details as well. The villain in this game will be the strongest that Nero and Dante have ever faced and that mysterious things have been happening in the Demon World. Nero is said to be on the hunt to reclaim something he has lost but it’s unclear if what he seeks is Kyrie, his Demon Arm, or something else.
Famitsu mentioned in its report that more information about Devil May Cry 5 will be available over the summer. Devil May Cry 5 director Hideaki Itsuno and producers Michiteru Okabe and Matthew Walker also confirmed recently that a playable Devil May Cry 5 demo is in development for the public which should be ready in a couple of months.
