While I do admit that the new "Dante" looks terrible, it is still far too early in development to mourn the death of DMC. One thing to keep in mind is that aside from DMC3, there hasn't been a single DMC game that wasn't radically changed during development.
DMC - Was originally meant to be RE4, Dante was originally Leon
DMC2 - Was originally a different game but was changed to be a sequel to DMC halfway through development
DMC4 - Didn't include Dante as a playable character originally and was a PS3 exclusive
So yeah, no need to hit the panic button just yet. There is already plenty of backlash about DMC5 so just let it ride its course and we'll all get the DMC game we want.
I think Capcom also said that this was a teenage Dante. Hopefully it'll show him grow into his DMC3 self
GUYS GUYS
here is a picture of the director of the game, who announced it at TGS.(click to show/hide)
Where is that icon of a smiley face turning into the Hulk? :(|)
It was mentioned in KAI's news for September that DMC5 would appear "more to a western audience".How does this appeal to a more "western audience"? Sounds more like an insult than a compliment.

The trailer was cool, but I don't like the character design.
Unless this is tied to the Dante from the past DMC tiles, storyline wise its gonna throw alot of ppl off. If this is Dante in his younger years then maybe we can get some deeper history on him or if this is his son and he came out to be emo and got caught but some Area 51 people somehow.AAHHH yeah hmm maybe this could like a Dante jr. hmmm dante and trish type thang went down and pops out a kid. i should have thought of that concept. good one.
and if you read the comics rather than just going by whats seen in the previous games, many of you would have a slightly different view on this.Don't they have a darker tone to them? I only saw a view page's of the 1st DMC3 one.
His hair is whitening, is this supposed to be a prequel?No its supposed to be fap material for ugly tween girls. real talk :|
this would be an extremely happy news to me if the title was "new action game from the creators of heavenly sword", hs is one of the best games ive enjoyed and this trailer shows some great designed enemies, some good animation and a story that may open more posibilites than the half-demon premise. BUT GOD DAMMIT WHY DEVIL MAY CRY AND WHY DANTE... some random hero and some random name and im sold... they better make a damn good game now.you got a lil point there about if this was a new game coming out and not being dante and dmc, but wait a sec... you do know what will happen anyway if it wasnt dmc or dante? it would just get labled...another devil may cry clone! just like the now infamous games being called GOW clones! lol. Tisk tisk tisk SMH. Well i Like the new approach and i wanna see some more. dmc clone or whatever. It looks really cool in trailer so all i wanna see to confirm my buy is some gameplay. then i am sold! :thumbsup:

This thread, you all made this worst than it is.
This is teenage dante, perhaps before he became the dante we all know and love and again, if you read any of the actual dmc comics, dante did not start out with having white hair nor was the cocky person we are used to.
This game will lead up to the current dante.
Give it a chance, damn y'all are nothing but freakin' headaches.
And I thought the MK vs DC debut was bad........
i have faith in ninja theory but cmon man you cant blame me for having a hard time getting over my extreme fanboyism for dante
............So they're doing a back story for him? Hmm... not a bad idea.

enough dmc5 start browsing asuras wrath mister...
i mean they made dmc4 with nero who brought up so many questions with his unexplained connection to vergil's yamato, resemblance to dante/vergil, and the devil bringer.

I don't bother with game based comics/ova's. Just like the Sonic games I only render the DMC games canon. This reboot completely misses the idea of Dante, so in other words... *Iceman ThumbsDown!*VKM is right, the comics and anime are pretty bad, bro. But not as bad as this new reboot. I bet there's gonna be 100% less pizza and motorcycles in this game.
........i've played every dmc game. vergil was nelo angelo in one and only shows up like 3 times giving nothing about nero. there was no evidence of him being his father in 3 either. the game ends with the fight that leads him to become nelo angelo. and he wasn't in dmc4 at all. so i guess i have to read the manga to see what you're talking about
Still you people People really dont know anything but are quick to open your mouth and so quickly to pass judgement.......
Play the game and/or read the comics and you will find out that Nero is actually Virgil's son.
This is becoming extremely sad..
i've played every dmc game....
ok so it was confirmed by someone ho works at capcom not from the video game series itself, because i'm sure i would have remembered something like that
I work at Ninja Theory. And I'm laughing so hard at all these threads.
Let me tell you something. The kid who said he was Dante isn't Dante at all. He thinks he's Dante but he's not. He is infact a human with mental issues. He thinks he's Dante. The story plays out in his dreams.
I'm not gonna spoil everything because I might get fired for this but I can't resist.
He's trying to escape from the asylum but he can't. he's powerless as we are in real life. but his reality and his dreams mixes together.
And this is what you get. A game about a boy who thinks hes Dante.
Why does this happen you say? I wont say. Buy the game and find out.
I would think that the title's name need to be changed to something else but have sorta of a sub phrase saying based or inspired from the DMC series, not actually naming this DMC.

http://devilmaycry.wikia.com/wiki/DmC (http://devilmaycry.wikia.com/wiki/DmC)so i guess they will continue with the story from dmc4 after the release and reception of this reboot is evaluated
