If you've been playing the heck out of Devil May Cry 5 over the weekend and you're desperate for more Dante, you may be in luck. Head on over to the North American PlayStation Store on PS4, and you'll be able to snag the first season of the 2008 Devil May Cry anime for free. It usually costs $24.99.
Reportedly, you need to be on an actual PS4 to get it -- going through the web store won't work. To find it, just search for 'Devil May Cry' and it should pop up in your results.
Are you up for some Devil May Cry anime? Show us some serious style in the comments section below.

and once again the UK is left out
what a load of B*******
@FullbringIchigo You can still grab it if you have a US account, right?
Already got it on blu-ray - good series!
@ShogunRok that's not the point, we shouldn't NEED to make or have an american account, they obviously did this because of the release of DMC5 well that released in more than america so if they are doing a promo for the game then it should be everywhere the game was released
@FullbringIchigo Why should it be everywhere who are you to demand that they are not obliged to do anything ever if they don't want to...Not just Sony any company in the world.
Cannot claim it for the past 3 days always gives me "this content cannot be selected at this time " message ... welp i guess i will keep trying
@Hapuc oh it's you again, do you just answer all my posts to try start an argument because it seems like it?
i'm not demanding a damn thing, i'm just saying it would be nice if we actually got one of these promotions for a change because we never do
@FullbringIchigo "that's not the point, we shouldn't NEED to make or have an american account"
There are three things in that sentence that you are doing.
1:Crying
2: Demanding
3:Crying
@Hapuc no i'm saying IF people in places like the UK want to take advantage of offers and promotions we have to create an account for a region we don't even live in and why should we have to do that
that's not crying or demanding, that's asking a damn question, why should we have to lie and circumnavigate things just to get what everyone else is getting?
Come on now people, let's not argue.
@ShogunRok i'm not he or she is which is all they ever seem to do
now i'm done but the comments section on this site is fast becoming a place i just don't want to interact with anymore, over the past few years the site has just become more and more filled with people who just want to try to start arguments
i have been a loyal user for 6 years but i'm about to reach the end of my tether
@Yrven same here. UK user with US account on console, content cannot be selected at this time.
Do you need download a certain app for this? Never watch videos using other apps before on my PS4 apart from Netflix and YouTube.
Edit: I tried to purchase it but it says, "This content cannot be selected at this time." I have a feeling it might be region locked.
@WanderingBullet it could just be it's not "live" yet
also nice City Hunter avatar by the way
@FullbringIchigo Thanks.haha Waiting for the movie to release on Blu-ray.
@WanderingBullet sadly the anime was never released in the UK, at least not that i can find although i have a few volumes of the manga in my collection
@SegaBlueSky same here.
@FullbringIchigo I have the imported bluy ray as well as the blu ray release that came with the devil may cry 4 steel book which I also imported.
@ShogunRok it seems to be region locked regardless if you have a US account or not, good thing about the blu ray release is it's region free, this is a moment where physical media can shine, i don't need a limited license to watch it, i don't think I've ever brought a movie from the psn store because of the restrictions on the license use.
@FullbringIchigo Ask your government they are the ones stingy about everything.
And UK is not special...you guys want to be exempt for everything you guys want to be independent from everything/everyone well there you have it you guys got what you wanted (and don't think It's political this is factual reality)
There is a saying in Eastern part of the Europe where the saying goes be everything except a British or Why do you always have to act like British,when a someone thinks he's special and wants to stand out from the crowd.
And oh Btw there is a difference 6 years ago and today 6 years ago there were far less people on this site and everyone was trying to act buddy buddy but today everyone will challenge your views and anything you say.
And at the end of the day fact of the matter is no one is obliged to give you anything and they never will be.
@Hapuc first off we don't want to be independent from everything/everyone, that referendum was pretty close and even afterwards many who voted to leave said they would change their minds as they were lied too but this isn't the place for politics and i think it's even against the rules so enough on that also that other bit about being British, well that's a bit racist because your judging us on our nationality and not on who we are as a person
as for your other point, your saying it's OK for people to be complete ***** to others just because there are more people here now then there used to be? and challenging isn't the issue what is the issue is that you can't say anything without someone either attacking you or just twisting what you said, not challenging you and discussing it but outright attacking, THAT is NOT OK
having a difference of opinion is fine but just look at how some of the topics have devolved into slanging matches
is it so hard for people to be civil
on which i apologise for being a bit arsy myself over this matter but it's just so annoying that i can't say ANYTHING without some one attacking it on here now a days
but i'm done, i have had enough
Already watch this when it launches decades ago, it's a good anime. Man I feels old lol.
ps. The opening music is great
Didn't even know there was a DMC anime, might have to look into this. Just started 5 and am really blown away by how good it is.
@FullbringIchigo Hey, I've been on the site and few years now too. Whilst you're right that there does seem to be an increase in those who aren't particularly friendly, I'd say the best thing to do is not bite or argue back. Just ignore their comments and interact with those who are engaging in a civil discourse
Admins you want to check out the above comments. Some could describe it as cyber bullying. Especially when nationality stereotyping comes into it. This shouldn't be allowed surely? The conversation has definitely come off topic.
@jonny_aces
They did give us an ignore button.
Was able to download, watching now. Forgot this anime existed, cool that's it free.
@jonny_aces While I'm not a Patriots fan , I have to agree with you.
@FullbringIchigo you could say that about nearly everything on the psn store, including all those demos and themes on the Japanese psn store. yeah, it’s a hassle, but that’s how it is. Not sure why freebies are region-locked to particular geographies.
I can’t believe it’s already been 10 years and I still haven’t watch this series in its entirety. ah well, now I have no excuse not to. thanks for the heads up!
also on amazon prime, apparently (us), but not free. $23 usd for the season.
@Wraggadam @huyi me too - content cannot be selected at this time.
We've deleted a bunch of comments that were totally off topic. Let's keep it clean please!
@ShogunRok Mate, I love you! I was just about to moan about being in the UK and then I read your comment, like a light in the darkness, reminding me that I'm a big doofus who forgot he had a US account as well.
@FullbringIchigo I see. I watched I think all of the OVAs and some episodes of the tv series as well as read some of the mangas.
I've never seen it but it's free, so why not? Hopefully, it's pretty decent.
I live in Canada, normally same as us store, but can’t find the anime at all, any price, on console or ps video app. Anyone know the exact name?
@Mega-Gazz
Did you type Devil May Cry in the search bar? That's what I did and the anime was the first thing to pop up. I'm in the U.S. though, not Canada.
Yea. Searched and also went into all tv and sorted a-z... its not there
Also in Canada, it is not even listed at all.
