New DmC Gameplay Footage

Capcom has released a new gameplay trailer for the upcoming Devil May Cry reboot.

[Prcko]

awesome

[Christopher]

Gameplay looks good, though like they're playing on easy mode for a DMC game. Gotta say, baby-faced emo Dante just isn't going to be a protagonist I will be able to empathize or care for. He looks better than what they did before, but the changes really are pretty jarring since I've played all the previous games.

[fei-hung]

Reminds me a lot of enslaved. Monkeys been replaced by a young emo Dante and you got the ghost sidekick instead of the woman.

Graphics are an improvement but my worst fears are trure, slow, sluggish cinematic gameplay compsared to the fast and furious original one.

Good too see Dante still has a sense of humour, but either way, i'll purchase the game as a used copy to show my love to crapcom and emo theory.

[Tanir]

does look very good actually, just wish it wasnt called DMC still gonna play it

[SuperNerd]

@Prcko Yea man Dante bieng a little emo boy with a serious down grade in atmosphere and gameplay..... real awesome

[OmegaSlayer]

I have always been skeptic.
Though I must say that every vid is better than the previous.
Still, we're soooo far.
I see how the achieved the 60 FPS feel...cutting the animations badly, the 30 FPS are something that it will be so hard to accept.
Also, the AI is really dumb.
I still remember my first playthrough in DMC1...I was aware that even the stupidest bunch of monster could have had the best of me even on the easiest settings.
That tension is gone when you can juggle enemies so easily and enemies don't attack you in flocks.
I seriously don't know how much fodder this game will be able to handle without hiccups, framerate drops and screen tearing.
Also...I seriously hope they find a way to put Vergil in.

[Shojin1]

... Looks good.

[SuperNerd]

...... no

[StraightPath]

Dante looks like a good boy.

[SuperNerd]

Huh? looks emo to me

[Darth Gamer]

Glad to see the first couple of comments being positive, I'm getting sick of all the hate for nothing. Game looks fantastic and will probably be the first DMC game that I actually enjoy since the first. Ninja Theory is a damn good developer weather you all admit it or not.

[firelogic]

This game does look good, but I still feel changing the character was unnecessary. Dante is an iconic character now. Now don't jump down my throat, I'm still buying this game and I'm not saying it's a game breaker...just unnecessary.

That said, you didn't like DMC3???

[Darth Gamer]

DMC 3 was better than 2 by a long shot but not up to the standard that the first created. DMC2 was a total train wreck And DMC 4 IMO just plain Stunk. Again, Just my opinion so keep the daggers at bay.

[Pozzle]

"And DMC 4 IMO just plain Stunk."

DMC4 was almost worth it for Dante's crazy antics. Even he wasn't taking the game seriously.

[ABizzel1]

I agree with you darth, the only concern I ever had was the gameplay, but once they said gameplay was the area Capcom would be helping out with I was fine with everything.

The gameplay was going to be good thanks to Capcom.

The story was going to be good thanks to Ninja Theory (because DMC doesn't have a well told story through any of the previous games, it's B movie at best.)

My final concern is if it's 60fps or not. Which isn't a deal breaker at all, just a nice bonus.

I'm sick of all the haters complaining about this game as well. We've seen gameplay it looks like DMC standards (not quite as fast). The only reason to complain now is that the character doesn't look like the old Dante, in which case go buy yourself a dante dildo and screw yourself, if it's that important to you.

It's funny that now that gameplay more representative of the final version is being shown, the DmC haters have gone into hiding.

[MaideninBlack]

"The DmC haters have gone into hiding."

No we just got tired of wasting our breath. At least I have. There's nothing Capcom or NT can do to make me give them $60 for this or any other game they release.

In the end DmC sales will speak for themselves.

[ZombieAssassin]

Nah DMC haters didn't go into hiding, they're just getting a DMC HD collection so they stopped caring as no studio will ever make a DMC better than 1 or 3...well maybe P* but I don't see it happening.

Me personally I'm against the reboot as I don't think it needed one but I loved Heavenly Sword so I'm gonna give it a shot but I will buy it used.

[Ducky]

"My final concern is if it's 60fps or not. Which isn't a deal breaker at all, just a nice bonus."

Would be deal breaker for me.
You can't really have fast-paced gameplay at 30fps, and that's really what DMC is (was?) about.

... and the new Dante is a concern because the old everything-is-a-joke dante was kind of why DMC had an appeal (outside of the gamelay itself). The new Dante is much more of a serious-man and well, seems boring.
I don't know the details of the story in this new game, but I don't see myself giving much of a damn about the new Dante.

Still, I like the art design of the environment-thing they got going on.

[thaking155]

Hey bro, you mad!?! Personal attack for saying you are an idiot/idjit and that no one has seen the video yet and saying that I want a Devil May Cry 5.

Hmmmm Sounds like I was speaking some truth and it hit a nerve! I've seen worse than this on this site and it was never blocked.

[Captain Qwark 9]

i think it looks great, will be picking up day 1. i have enjoyed all the other dmcs and this one looks to be an improvement as far as im concerned. kudos to ninja theory, combat looks crazy good

[Croash]

Honestly, that's the best DmC related footage I've seen ever since the game was introduced to us in 2010. The gameplay looks smooth and fun, the environment is beautiful and Dante's animations and moves are top-notch.

The only issue I have is that I don't really see any difficulty in here. I just want to be sure that enemies will actually try to KILL Dante and not just stare at him.

Anyway, this is definitely a step in the right direction. Even though we've seen this during TGS 2011, I feel like it was better this time. I guess it's mostly because I could finally get a clear image and listen to the voices/music/effects, and I certainly liked the fact that there were no Enslaved-like stupid slow motion events that completely ruined the flow of combos. And for some reason, the camera behaved in a less buggy way.

Ninja Theory's DmC doesn't look so bad anymore. Let's just hope they'll get everything right by the time it's released.

[ZombieAssassin]

Is Reuben Langdon doing the voice for Dante in this one?

The gameplay looks smooth, but I have a feeling us Ps3 users are going to get the shaft because of UE3.

[thekiddfran]

Wow that was surprisingly awesome!!!!

[Reaper9937]

Looks shite.

[AngelicIceDiamond]

Has the pointless hating finally subsided? I told the haters his games gonna be legit.

[Acquiescence]

Take my money Ninja Theory.

[LettingGo]

Loved Heavenly Sword. Loved Enslaved.

Remember, guys. Ninja Theory wanted to keep the same Dante. Capcom made them change it.

I have faith.

[LoneWolf019]

I used to be a hater on this DmC but NT slowly won me over. With this and Mass effect 3 I should be set till borderlands 2 and Halo 4 :D

[RazMaTaz0121]

As a Ninja Theory game - Great, looks better then the previous titles they have made.

As a DMC title - Not there yet.

Dont get me wrong, story may be great and all, but if the gameplay aint a step up from Bayonetta or DMC3, then that alone is fail.

[SandRazor]

I'm still surprised why they still have the stupid heavy metal loop in the game. In a world that is now evolving towards dubstep, drum n bass, and electro house, you would expect to have that kind of music. Like when I put on Porter Robinson's Spitfire (Kill The Noise Remix) the gameplay looked fuking awesome but when I muted the tunes the metal song just made it look boring. :/

[Gamer-Z]

Didint they say that this game was set in an alternate universe (because of all the hate) and wont effect the original story line of DMC?

[BigDollarZoe954]

its looks good and promising dante image may have changed but still haves the devil may cry feeling to it might buy it still iffy about it though

[Hicken]

It doesn't look bad, honestly. But it also doesn't have the feel of DMC. If it were a standalone game- and we didn't lay into it for being obviously influenced by DMC- I think we'd all agree it looks like it could be a pretty good game.

But tying it into one of the most iconic franchises to come out of last generation... kinda ruins the game for people.

[Kyosuke_Sanada]

I love how they suddenly put "Work in Progress" before the video yet the others before had it absent (excluding the very first trailer of course) which means the fans complaints are really taking effect so they are lowering viewers expectations beforehand. Come on, after announcing the guns are going to have cool down periods I still can't believe this game still isn't considered just a feint to promote DMC HD Collection sales.......

People need to remember what chaos in 60 fps looks like...

[Silly gameAr]

Actually looks pretty good.

[zerocrossing]

I don't like it, It's a fine game but it's not DMC IMO.

And before anyone complains, Im sure you'd all moan if some 3rd party dev went and pulled a twilight on one of your fave franchises.

[r21]

i seriously do not like this video player. anyways, the game, imo, looks great and plays smoothly :D

[JohnApocalypse]

It like really the art style

[TheBlackMask]

Jesus Christ one bit of footage looks average (which is better then the others) and now it looks "alright"

No....no, that dosen't make it all better. One bit of footage out of all the other which has been shown dosen't now make this game "alright"

I wish people actually stuck to their guns and had some balls. NT don't seem to give a crap about this game and I hope it does crap, sorry to be blunt but it's true...if they get good sales then they'll give us another one...and another and they'll get worse and worse. Then all you have to blame is your self.
