You can quit complaining now – Dante's back with his silver locks, and he's brought fellow grey top Nero along for the ride. As previously announced, Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition will be making its way to the PlayStation 4 this summer, marking the return of the divisive Japanese developed entry over eight years after its original release. But this ain't going to be your standard port.
Writing on the PlayStation Blog, director Hideaki Itsuno explained that this particular edition will feature the largest cast of playable characters in a DMC title to date, with fan favourites Vergil, Lady, and Trish joining the fight. There'll also be a bevy of new modes, costumes, and more, making this something of a definitive edition.

Vergil will be based upon his Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening Special Edition rendition, but the developer has added in elements from DmC: Devil May Cry. A new 'Concentration' mechanic will make his attacks more powerful if you play "calmly and flawlessly", while the 'Grim Trick' ability will enable you to teleport around the field of play.
Lady, meanwhile, will focus on long-range attacks, shaking the series up, while Trish will place her demon slaying efforts solely on the Sparda sword. "This again makes for a play style that will feel distinctly different from anything that you've seen in the game until now," Itsuno explained. There's a trailer below showing off all of these additions in the franchise's usual flashy style.
We're just pleased to see that that peroxide's been put to good use.

My body is ready to play this all over again
Getting this when I'm done with DMC Definite Edition
Capcom are loving remasters at the moment
I wonder if this one will address the whole Nero thing, how does he have Spartas blood (I know one of the developers said he was Vergils son at a convention once but as it was never said in game that's still not official conformation)
I'm just hoping they'll announce a real release date (MM/DD/YYYY) soon..
I honestly though DMC4 was a little on the bland/boring side, but maybe it'll be a little sweeter this time around.
Can we also have a resi remake of 2 and 3 please capcom?
budget price then I'll buy dmc is great.
Dat title Remaster it please.
Liked what I played back in 2008 but that was a long time ago now. I'll get the game because I want to finish it. Interested to see how it holds up post-DmC Definitive.
Huge DMC fan!! Only part 2 was a disapointment, IMO.
I'll gladly add this and GOW3 to my remaster collection. Lol. Now just give me ME collection with all the dlc, bioware!! And I'll be complete!
