I know, I know. You aren’t too sure about this Devil May Cry reboot being helmed by Ninja Theory, I too am a bit skeptical about this new young, black haired Dante. But I will say that I did enjoy Heavenly Sword and this new footage out of Gamescom does look promising. I’ll reserve judgement until the game is released but in the meantime scope out a synopsis of the game as well as the video and some screenshots below.

Set against a contemporary backdrop, DmC will depict a duplicitous world where nothing is ever as it seems and the line between good and evil is constantly blurred. Spurred into action by the promises of a trusted relation, Dante bursts into this world intent on revenge at any cost. DmC will retain the series’ signature mix of sword and gunplay but add additional weapons, all new powers and a revitalised gameplay system as players encounter the game’s devilish mix of enemies and navigate the rich, interactive environment.
