Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening is a Stylish Action Hack and Slash video game for the PlayStation 2, developed and published by Capcom in 2005. The game is the second Numbered Sequel in the Devil May Cry series after 2003's Devil May Cry 2.Several years before the events of Devil May Cry and Devil May Cry 2, a young and haughty Dante is visited by a strange man named Arkham, who notifies him that Dante's brother is looking for him. A great tower named Temen-ni-gru suddenly ascends out of the ground soon after, unleashing hordes of demons upon the city. Dante, always ready for a fight, sets off to conquer the tower, encountering swarms of demons, monstrous bosses, a gun-toting lady who refuses to give him her name, and the mysterious Arkham himself, all coming to a final confrontation with his estranged twin brother Vergil.Gameplay is a more advanced form of the combat from the previous games; Dante is able to wield a great number of both melee and ranged weapons, beginning with his trusty sword Rebellion and dual pistols Ebony and Ivory, and can execute dozens of moves to stylishly eliminate enemies. He also has access to a number of Styles that allow him to focus on certain aspects of his techniques, such as evasive maneuvers, defensive maneuvers, or extra attacks with his melee and ranged weapons.Later in 2005, Capcom announced that they would release a "Special Edition" of the game that added more features and content — most notably the ability to play as Vergil. This Special Edition was released in early 2006.Aside from the main game, there are also supplementary materials and spin-offs for Devil May Cry 3, such as a two-volume Manga prequel published in 2005, and a 2007 pachislot machine that uses the in-game assets.This game is also a part of the Devil May Cry HD Collection featuring upgraded resolutions of HD 720p (for PS3 and Xbox 360) or HD 1080p (for PS4 and Xbox One) and other optimizations. Achievements and Trophies were also added.In February 2020, the game was ported over to the Nintendo Switch. However, rather than being a straight port like its predecessors, the Switch version of Devil May Cry 3 added new gameplay features under the exclusive "Freestyle" mode, like Real-Time Style Switching and the Irregular Full Custom Weapon Switching, features that wouldn't be introduced until 4 and 5, as well as the addition of Local Co-Op Bloody Palace with Dante and Vergil, a first-ever for the series.This game was followed up by Devil May Cry 4 in 2008. | |

Parrying Bullets: Dante usually prefers to block enemy fire by shooting it, but Vergil can deflect bullets by spinning his katana. Dante and Vergil both slice up the rocket fired by Lady's Kalina Ann when she steps in between their duel. The Enigmas' projectiles can be shattered by well-timed melee attacks. | |

Bullet Dancing: Jester loves doing this as a parody, especially when he introduced himself. Dante shoots at Jester's feet when he's becoming annoying, then the clown breaks into the Charleston as he dodges the bullets. In his boss fights, Jester does this whenever you attempt to shoot him, though after a few shots, he's tired out and left wide open for some melee hits. | |

Elevator Action Sequence | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_16b658ca | comment |
Elevator Action Sequence: There are elevator fights with an emphasis on speed. Mooks drop down from above, and if you don't knock them off or kill them quickly enough, the elevator will falter and send you back down to the bottom of the shaft. It's the main challenge of Secret Mission 4, but the Hell Prides are in their Devil Trigger state by that point. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_16f8f547 | comment |
Monster and the Maiden: A variation with Dante and Lady. The former is half-demon while the latter is fully human. Both are on the heroic side but are antagonistic towards each other for most of the story due to Lady's prejudice towards demons. The climax shows them fighting demons side by side after both undergo Character Development and come to see each other as allies if not friends. | |

The Worf Effect: The Hell Vanguard is fought as a boss by Dante. But when that very same Vanguard shows up in Vergil's first appearance, he just kills the demon in one cut. This should let you know that he's not one to be messed with. The Abyss are faster and more aggressive elite variants of the scythe-wielding Hell-type fodder demons. In Vergil's campaign from the Special Edition, he just effortlessly defeats a crowd of them during his opening cutscene. | |

You Are Already Dead | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_18cb78a2 | comment |
You Are Already Dead: At least in cutscenes, Vergil's Signature Move involves Diagonal Cutting his opponent, then waiting several seconds before sheathing his katana (with an audible "click!") and only then, the enemy goes asunder. Three victims are subjected to this trick, but to slightly varying degrees: When the Hell Vanguard that attacked Dante in Mission 2 retreated near Vergil on top of the tower, he impales the demon behind him without looking back, it froze in place, and then explodes after Vergil sheathed his katana. Due to the delay, Beowulf actually managed to speak to Vergil before his head went in pieces. Vergil also impales Arkham and pulls his sword out, but Arkham doesn't seem to react and starts yelling at him while Vergil slowly sheathes his sword. It's only when his sword is completely sheathed with a "click!" that Arkham screams in pain and falls over. | |

Title Drop | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_18d15922 | comment |
Title Drop: Though Dante has a habit of dropping the phrase "Devils never cry" Once an Episode, it's not until the end of this game (during his Sand In My Eyes excuse for crying over his brother seemingly dying) where Lady tells Dante in response to that, "Even a devil may cry when he loses a loved one." Chronologically, this would be the first time the phrase is mentioned. In the epilogue, Dante finally names his demon-hunting business as "Devil May Cry", and both he and Lady say it in unison just as the latter narrates in the background. "Devil(s) Cry" is a Downplayed derivation of the series title. The main theme, "Devils Never Cry", has verses ending with the line "Praise to my father, Blessed by the water, Black night, dark sky, The devils cry". | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_19769f50 | comment |
Defeat Means Friendship: After an entire game of butting heads, Dante and Lady finally come to terms with each other when he beats her in proper combat. Dante must defeat the Devil Arms in their original forms as guardians of the tower before he can use them as weapons. Agni and Rudra in particular are very enthusiastic about this trope, practically begging Dante to take them with him after their defeat. | |

The Tower: The majority of the game takes place in a massive demonic tower named Temen-ni-gru, which suddenly rose up in the middle of a city. In addition, the challenge levels take place in an ever-ascending version of the same tower. In a bit of a discussion regarding the tower's etymology, Arkham also explains that Temen-ni-gru means "The foundation that brought out fear". | |

Boss Banter | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_1e122f24 | comment |
Boss Banter: Vergil repeatedly insults Dante, calling him "scum" who is "not worthy of being (his) opponent". The other lines you hear depend on how you're faring, ranging from "Now, I'm a little motivated!" or "Don't get cocky." if you're doing well in the fight, or "Where's your motivation?" if you're performing poorly otherwise. Apart from his grunts, Beowulf has dialogue lines when he performs his Ground Punch, and when he Turns Red. Both are simply about wanting to kill or crush Dante. In between its attacks, Doppelganger can taunt you by imitating Dante's trademark brand of Trash Talk, no less. Nevan spends the whole match seductively taunting Dante. | |

Couldn't Find a Pen: After Dante bursts forth from Leviathan's eye and lands on a higher floor of the tower, the nearby pillar has a "Welcome" text and Jester's portrait below it, both written and drawn in blood. The camera also focuses on it for a while during that cutscene. | |

Back-to-Back Badasses: Lady and Dante have a back-to-back shooting moment against the demons that surround them in the opening cutscene of Mission 9. Dante and Vergil pull this one against a huge blob-shaped Arkham at the conclusion of Mission 19. As Dante's Ebony is swatted, Vergil catches it and they do a synchronized, flashy gun-spinning sequence ending with the two back-to-back, with Vergil holding Ebony sideways over Dante's Ivory, forming a 90-degree angle and tossing off a one-liner as they blast their enemy. | |

Take My Hand! | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_1fe36347 | comment |
Take My Hand!: Happens in the cutscene after Dante finally defeats his brother Vergil. As the portal to the demon world closes and Temen-ni-gru begins collapsing, Vergil chooses to stay in the demon world "where the battle took place". He allows himself to fall off the top of the waterfall where they fought. Dante attempts this trope, but is cut by Vergil's blade one last time as his brother falls into oblivion. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The Soul of Steel key item is first found inside a cage. In a later mission, you lift the cage and obtain said key item to walk across a chasm. Some statues resembling human-sized chess pieces are suspiciously scattered in the early parts of Temen-ni-gru, albeit inanimate at first. Then you realize later on that they're Damned Chessmen, a common threat throughout the tower, and in Mission 18, you finally square off with the entire chess board, king included. Dante and Vergil's halves of the Perfect Amulet are used to undo the seal of the tower. The bells you see strewn throughout Temen-ni-gru are later involved in the ritual used to open the gate to the underworld. | |

Ironic Hell | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_237569e4 | comment |
Ironic Hell: As represented by all of the 7 Hells jailers: Pride: Being the most basic jailer, Pride awaits the prideful, whose minds get full of themselves and think they are invincible. Envy: Because they stand out with Leviathan's fluids as jailers not of sand, Hell Envies prey on the envious of how their hell is "unique" than the others, being in the stinking and infernal bowels of a hell beast. Wrath: Carrying a bomb, they blow up the wrathful to show the consequences and chain reactions of violence and anger. Lust: With great speed, they chase after the lustful, who lust and chase after what they can instinctively indulge themselves with. Gluttony: Their blowing breath are meant to keep the gluttonous away from comfort and indulgence. Sloth: They are able to teleport to catch up with the slothful, who do not improve themselves. Greed: Because Pride, Lust, and Gluttony are root sins for Greed, Hell Greeds summon fellow jailers to help keep the greedy in place. Their massive coffin pillars are also wide range deterrents to sweep away the greedy, which implies that they make up a massive portion of hell. | |

Surprisingly Super-Tough Thing: The "Red/Blue devices" (Basically, switches in the form of a pedestal with an intricate circular object layered in its surface) can only be activated by the playable character's only means of interacting with the environment: attacking it. They won't break even if you use the character's strongest attack, though they'll activate faster if you do that. Combat Adjudicators react to melee weapon attacks but not firearms. They are also Immune to Flinching unless you use the proper weapon against them. But even so, they would only shatter when you reach a certain Stylish Rank while attacking them. | |

Use Their Own Weapon Against Them: Dante and Vergil's first battle concludes with Vergil stabbing Dante with his own sword Rebellion. However, not only does Dante survive as usual, it unlocks his Devil Trigger. Lady also ends up being a victim of this. After subduing Dante, Vergil and Lady, Arkham reveals that the blood of the mortal priestess Sparda used to seal the Temen-ni-gru tower is needed to complete the ritual. And it just so happens that Lady is a descendant of said priestess. Arkham stabs Lady in the leg with her BFG's bayonet and her spilled blood activates the tower. | |

Jester is an expy of The Joker from the Batman franchise. A convention also revealed that Jester was named "Joker" when the game was still in development. The re-releases of the game eventually added more Batman and Joker references surrounding Jester and Arkham - The Jester boss fights in the Special Edition include a voice clip where he refers to himself as "Joker" instead of Jester. In the HD Collection, the achievement for defeating Arkham is titled "Asylum", referencing the Arkham Asylum which is more commonly associated with the word "Arkham" in pop culture. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Nevan is surely awesome, but ridiculously difficult to use effectively since its attacks are less straightforward or slower than all other Devil Arms; summoning bats that home in on enemies and doing singular Area of Effect attacks instead of having combo strings you smack them with. It is also complex and rather unclear in terms of holding and releasing buttons, and most of its attacks involve moving the left stick in a precise direction (not just forth or back as with other weapons). In the middle of a fight, Dante's position is usually compromised if he's surrounded while charging Nevan, yet constantly moving around makes inputting controls quite tricky. However, this weapon becomes near essential against specific enemies in higher difficulties, notably the Enigmas, as this is the only weapon that can effectively block their deadly red lasers while attacking at the same time. | |

Checkpoint Starvation: Playing with the original yellow orbs requires you to have one to load a checkpoint, considering how rare/expensive these are and how long the missions in the game can last (20-30 minutes and have a boss fight at the end sometimes) this massively increases the game's difficulty. | |

Sadly Mythtaken | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_2ec87029 | comment |
Sadly Mythtaken: Beowulf, a human folk hero from Denmark/Germanic myth, is reimagined as a giant vaguely lion-looking light demon with four wings, a scorpion tail, claws and talons, akin to Pazuzu. Cerberus, known for being the three-headed attack dog of the Underworld in Classical Mythology, is an ice elemental, making him more of a Mythology Upgrade to his Divine Comedy counterpart. Geryon, in Greek mythology, was a hideous giant that looked like three men fused into one. In Dante's Inferno, he is a serpent-like creature with wings and a human face. There's never been a depiction of him as a horse, though the Greek version was a horse owner, so it's not entirely without precedence. Agni and Rudra are no longer the Hindu gods of fire and the storm respectively, but instead sentient scimitars wielded by headless brutes. While Rudra in Hindu mythology does have a secondary rubric in storms (and thus connected to winds), his primary shtick is as an archer. The Hindu god of wind is Vayu. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: Due to a (highly possible) memory leak issue, playing the game for an extensive amount of time could result in a Vergil player data leaking into all of Dante's save data, corrupting them almost entirely. All of Dante's Devil Arms and Style upgrades are gone (with the game incorrectly giving him Dark Slayer Style, which is exclusive to Vergil), he is stuck T-Posing, and depending on how far you got with him on repeat playthroughs, then Dante's mission progress will be all messed up. The only way to counter this is to reset the game entirely in between missions if you want to continue or switch characters. Thankfully, this has been fixed for the Nintendo Switch version. The PlayStation 3 release of the game also has, for unknown reasons, Kalina Ann's grapple not working most of the time. The game will also randomly crash on menus and cutscenes, forcing a hard reset of the console itself. | |

Ground Punch | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_342b0e2 | comment |
Ground Punch: Beowulf the Lightbeast is fond of punching the ground to create light-based shockwaves during his combos, which justifies why Dante and Vergil inherit ground punches in their Beowulf Devil Arm moveset. Dante's Volcano ability with Beowulf (which is an offshoot of the Ifrit's Inferno ability from the first game), has him smash the ground with his fist to create a blast of Hard Light. As a boss fight, Vergil switches to his Yamato katana after punching the ground with the Beowulf gauntlets. Doppelganger also has two variants of mimicking the "Volcano" ground punch of the Beowulf Devil Arm; one that turns the shockwave into a ranged attack, and another that serves as its desperation move to force a blackout if all lights are turned on. | |

Suspiciously Cracked Wall: In the puzzle room containing the statues crying Tears of Blood, one wall has a crack with an odd white light in its center, indicating that it can be broken. There's a notable moment where you enter a room that doesn't seem to have anything in it, but there's a glowing crack in front of you. Turns out that there's a wall almost immediately in front of the door that you destroy to carry on. | |

Though Dante has a habit of dropping the phrase "Devils never cry" Once an Episode, it's not until the end of this game (during his Sand In My Eyes excuse for crying over his brother seemingly dying) where Lady tells Dante in response to that, "Even a devil may cry when he loses a loved one." Chronologically, this would be the first time the phrase is mentioned. | |

Lady starts off as a jerkass, with bad first impressions to Dante and all, such as shooting his face when he just rescued her from falling, and fighting him simply because he's a half-demon. Over time, Lady had a Character Development after Arkham has been dealt with, becomes one of Dante's trusted allies, and acts more carefree than before. | |

Degraded Boss: The Hell Vanguard. The first one encountered serves as the Warm-Up Boss of Mission 2. More of its kind reappear later on, but are relegated to mere Mini Bosses or Elite Mooks. Even if the rest lose a dedicated boss lifebar, they can still gain a potential Devil Trigger ability under specific circumstances, or in the Must Die difficulty mode. The first Gigapede you fight has more abilities (plus a health bar) and is harder to defeat. The ones you meet after that are much easier to deal with and completely optional to kill. | |

This is harder than it sounds; not only do the other pieces continually attack you, but both of the Damned Rooks must be killed first or the King will simply switch places with one (as a nod to castling) every time you try to hit him. | |

Why Am I Ticking?: Hell Wraths are passive Action Bombs at first, and by default, they'll only detonate themselves when you're in close proximity, or if the fight has dragged long enough. However, you can force them to detonate prematurely by shooting at them, as indicated by their explosive sacks glowing orange the more you shoot them. The brighter the glow, the sooner they're about to explode. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Dante finally triumphs over Vergil, but is unable to save him from plunging into the abyss of the Demon World or from his own ambitions of power. Lady finally works up the courage to proclaim herself free of the name Mary and shoots her own father, avenging one parent by killing the other. (A conclusion made even more bittersweet in DMC5 when it's revealed this action haunted Lady for the rest of her life.) If you kill a hundred enemies during the credits, you get a cutscene where Vergil appears in the Demon World, with three glowing red eyes arranged like Mundus leering over him, before Vergil rushes into battle, screaming. If you've played the first game, you know how that battle ends poorly for him. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_41d74667 | comment |
Lag Cancel: You can cancel the after-shot lag of the Spiral rifle and Kalina Ann rocket launcher by either switching to Ebony & Ivory immediately afterwards or properly timing a Royal Guard pose. Cancelling short hops and rolls into the guarding animation of the Royal Guard style is a very effective defensive tactic. | |

Doppelgänger Attack | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_4292ebbf | comment |
Doppelgänger Attack: When Dante uses his Doppelganger Style, he can create a single duplicate of himself. The duplicate will mirror Dante's movements and attacks, but the player can choose to increase the lag between the command inputs and the duplicate's response — or a second player can take control instead. | |

Sibling Team: In the second half of the penultimate Boss Battle, Dante and Vergil put aside their differences and subject Arkham to the receiving end of a Curb-Stomp Battle. Unfortunately, it doesn't last for long; the brothers fight each other again after defeating Arkham. | |

Only Smart People May Pass | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_433e732f | comment |
Only Smart People May Pass: There's the aptly-named Trial of Wisdom with multiple doors that are each marked with a different number of lights. To proceed, they have to be entered in a certain order, and your only clue to figuring that out is a reference to the Riddle of the Sphinx. Easy enough to solve for those familiar with it, and utterly baffling for anyone who's not. However, this section can be optional if you only wish to proceed to the next area (as only two out of three Trials must be passed to break the rubble blocking the gate), but it's mandatory only if you wish to acquire the Artemis weapon. | |

Sticks to the Back: Vergil almost averts this entirely, as he always carries Yamato's scabbard in his left hand, but then he has to go and pick up Force Edge in the final battle, which does this. Though Dante's weapons have a habit of doing this in the series, there are actually some straps on his default costume that look as if they manage to hold weapons like Rebellion and Cerberus. | |

Throw the Sheath Away: It isn't focused on, but it is noticeable that Vergil disregards his sheath while running at Mundus at the end of the bonus post-credits scene. Despite his brave words, it's easy to interpret that he is well aware of how insane this challenge is and how unlikely he is to make it out alive. With this game serving as a prequel game to the first one, it serves as a Foregone Conclusion of him losing the fight and being enslaved as Nelo Angelo. | |

Stance System | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_44e013e4 | comment |
Stance System: The series was one of the first to use a straightforward stance mechanic in an action game form thanks to DMC3 and its Styles system; Swordmaster allows advanced use of melee weapons, Gunslinger grants new techniques to ranged weaponry, Trickster adds advanced dodging and aerial abilities, and Royal Guard allows you to stop nearly any attack cold. Dante later obtains Quicksilver and Doppelganger as spoils for defeating Geryon and Doppelganger. Dante is restricted to only one Style at a time, which can be swapped at a Mission Start screen or Divinity Statue. In the Nintendo Switch release, there's an option to use a Real-Time Style Switching feature that was implemented in later games past DMC3. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Dante begins the game as a cocky and arrogant self-centered jerk clearly only in it to show up his brother. While his demeanor doesn't change hugely by the time things hit the fan, it becomes clear that his reason for fighting changed to something far nobler. Lady starts off as a jerkass, with bad first impressions to Dante and all, such as shooting his face when he just rescued her from falling, and fighting him simply because he's a half-demon. Over time, Lady had a Character Development after Arkham has been dealt with, becomes one of Dante's trusted allies, and acts more carefree than before. | |

If Cerberus didn't send the message, Agni & Rudra will as they're the game's first Dual Boss, fought at the end of Mission 5 when a player likely still has limited health, little upgrades, and still no Devil Trigger, and once one of them is beaten the other whips out an even stronger moveset via Dual Wielding, making it clear this where the game stops holding your hand. | |

Long-Range Fighter: Gunslinger is a crowd-controlling style that uses ranged weaponry. While the lack of any up-close-and-personal moves is a weakness, the sheer power your guns have more than makes up for it. Using the style requires a good sense of surrounding, as all the style focuses around using your guns to hit multiple opponents. Leveling it up unlocks even more solutions for enemies ganging up on you. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness: This is the first game in the franchise with Styles, but the system works differently here than in later titles. In 3, only one Style can be used during a mission and new skills are acquired through levels and grinding for experience points. In 4 and 5, Styles can be switched during missions, and skills can be bought before missions or at Divinity Statues. The Switch version adds Style Switching, which works similarly to 4 and 5, but keeps the original level grinding system. | |

Geryon, in Greek mythology, was a hideous giant that looked like three men fused into one. In Dante's Inferno, he is a serpent-like creature with wings and a human face. There's never been a depiction of him as a horse, though the Greek version was a horse owner, so it's not entirely without precedence. | |

Dramatic Necklace Removal: Played with in the manga. Dante's amulet is very important to the plot, and when the chain holding it breaks, his efforts at a quick fix don't work out very well. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_553c2ade | comment |
Sympathetic Villain, Despicable Villain: The Big Bad Ensemble formed by Vergil (Sympathetic) and Arkham (Despicable) follows this structure. They are both selfish men obsessed with power, but while Vergil has a strong sense of honor and is primary interested in gaining power to make sure that he doesn't get hurt again, like it happened in the past, Arkham (also known as Jester) is a Manipulative Bastard who wants to become a god for the sake of it, and is fully willing to kill his wife and harm his daughter Lady to achieve his goals. Towards the end of the game, Vergil forms a temporary alliance with Dante to stop Arkham. | |

Airborne Mook | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_5560dbb5 | comment |
Airborne Mook: Blood-goyles are flying enemies that come to life when blood touches one of their statues in Temen-ni-gru. They generally stalk Dante from up above, swooping down occasionally to attack. The Fallen enemies are angelic-looking headaches that love to fly just out of reach and swing their explosive javelins around. A good taunt might persuade them to come within bashing distance, however. | |

Bragging Rights Reward: Completing the Very Hard difficulty or Bloody Palace mode unlocks the standard "Super Costume" for your character. It grants unlimited Devil Trigger meter, but certain abilities that ordinarily consume the DT gauge still drain it regardless. In the Special Edition, completing the "Must Die" difficulty gives Dante and Vergil additional Super Costumes that have more benefits than their standard Super Costumes, such as health regeneration and unlimited usage of DT-reliant abilities. | |

Vergil repeatedly insults Dante, calling him "scum" who is "not worthy of being (his) opponent". The other lines you hear depend on how you're faring, ranging from "Now, I'm a little motivated!" or "Don't get cocky." if you're doing well in the fight, or "Where's your motivation?" if you're performing poorly otherwise. | |

Nostalgia Level | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_56b5a6b7 | comment |
Nostalgia Level: The Leviathan's Womb Level is basically a throwback to the Mission 22 Underworld level from DMC1; both are made up of fleshy and organic structures including a giant beating heart, large vessels serving as passageways, flesh doors that must be struck to open, and a lot of platforming. This area also contains living doors that are opened and closed by moving "tusks", behaving just like a completely identical door that you have to backtrack in the first game. The Netherworld in Mission 19 contains mirror portals that have the same appearance and functionality as the late-game mirror portals that appear in the castle from the first game. Backtracking is involved again, and you also need to find an item that lets you activate a portal leading to the final sections of that area, just like how a late-game DMC1 mission played out. | |

Charged Attack | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_589e54d3 | comment |
Charged Attack: For the "Hold" type: Dante can charge his guns for extra damage while in Gunslinger Style. In the tradition of gauntlet-type Devil Arms, most of Beowulf's basic combos can be held to deal more damage. Certain attacks (e.g. Round Trip, Drive, Judgement Cut) require you to hold a button to perform them. Nevan's primary gimmick consists of holding down the button to summon more electric bats or launch stronger variants of its attacks. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_5b459e82 | comment |
Dante pulls off several moves and killshots in cutscenes that are nigh-impossible in gameplay (though there is one cutscene move that he can actually do in normal gameplay; surfing on downed enemies). In the prologue, he shrugs off horrific injuries to kill his enemies with the pieces of their own weapons embedded in his body. After defeating Cerberus, he casually dodges and surfs on a rocket fired by Lady. Special mention goes to the various cutscenes where he travels down or up the side of Temen-ni-gru, usually slicing and shooting apart hordes of demons with tons of flashy moves that he can't quite pull off when you're controlling him (and that's not even mentioning his feat of using the motorcycle as a melee weapon). | |

Bare-Handed Blade Block | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_5c91635a | comment |
Barehanded Blade Block: Inverted by Vergil after he trounces Dante in their first duel; Dante's Devil Trigger awakens and he throws a fierce punch at Vergil, which Vergil blocks with Yamato's edge, causing Dante's hand to bleed as the latter attempts to move the Yamato away. Played straight by Jester clapping his hands to catch the Yamato when Vergil attempts to attack him. In the opening cutscene of Mission 20, Vergil attempts to deliver a vertical downward slash to Dante via the Force Edge. In retaliation, Dante pulls the same attack with Rebellion, and the twins simultaneously catch each other's swords with their off hands. Granted, those hands bleed profusely, but these are the sons of Sparda. | |

Nintendo Hard: The initial Western release removed the Easy mode and the other difficulties all ranked down in name to compensate; so Normal mode was actually the Hard mode from the Eastern release. When the Special Edition was released later, the difficulties were kept the same as the Japanese release. As the Western "Hard" difficulty had no analogous equivalent in the Japanese version, it was given the new title "Very Hard" in Special Edition. | |

Freeze-Frame Bonus | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_62f9d08e | comment |
Freeze-Frame Bonus: The introductory cutscene to every Mission incorporates the mission number somewhere, often very briefly such as the 9 on a fallen 9mm shell case or a 20 in the clouds above the level. Some are fairly obvious, such as the corpses of the demons killed by Lady's bike exhaust in Mission 3 forming the number 3, or Mission 5's intro fading out on a spray of blood shaped like a 5. Looking at the stills for each cutscene in the Demo Digest theater feature will most likely reveal all of these instances. | |

Finger-Twitching Revival: After Vergil stabs him, Dante does this. He promptly gets stabbed again with his own sword. After Vergil stabs him, Arkham does this, causing Lady to speak with him in his supposed final moments when she just found him previously unconscious on the floor. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: A minor example. During the ending cutscene, Dante returns the Kalina Ann rocket launcher to Lady. But then we have the playable credits; if Dante had the rocket launcher equipped during the Final Boss battle, he can still use it despite Lady visibly wielding it alongside him. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_637ef67 | comment |
Due to a (highly possible) memory leak issue, playing the game for an extensive amount of time could result in a Vergil player data leaking into all of Dante's save data, corrupting them almost entirely. All of Dante's Devil Arms and Style upgrades are gone (with the game incorrectly giving him Dark Slayer Style, which is exclusive to Vergil), he is stuck T-Posing, and depending on how far you got with him on repeat playthroughs, then Dante's mission progress will be all messed up. The only way to counter this is to reset the game entirely in between missions if you want to continue or switch characters. Thankfully, this has been fixed for the Nintendo Switch version. | |

Damage Reduction | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_64cf3b3f | comment |
If they are still in their "blood" forms, striking the Blood-goyles with melee attacks will just cause them to split and multiply. They also resist a significant portion of your melee damage in that state, so while it's possible to brute-force them with melee attacks, it will take a long time. The "proper" way to deal with them is to petrify them first with ranged attacks, as they'll receive normal damage from your melee attacks only when they're turned to stone. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_66b32e36 | comment |
Belly Mouth: The Fallen normally appear to be angels with six wings; two on their back, outstretched, two covering (or acting as) their legs, and two acting as arms, the latter wings hold a divine sword and act as a shield, protecting the Fallen from attacks. You can break their shield-wings to reveal a grotesque belly mouth, which, aside from looking pretty horrifying, also serves as the angel's weak spot. | |

A Storm Is Coming: There is an impending rainstorm during the events of the game, and it's thematically highlighted or given relevance at certain points. Arkham says this phrase almost word-for-word as he walks off to deal with Lady at the beginning of Mission 4, the heavy rain is present just in time for Dante and Vergil's first encounter (which turns it into a Battle in the Rain), and Lady points out how the "rain already stopped" in the ending. | |

It fits with Vergil's aesthetic and commitment to tradition and power, while the latter is more representative of Dante's resistance to said commitment. | |

Guide Dang It!: Secret Missions need some effort or a walkthrough to find since they aren't easily indicated by cues. For example, Secret Mission 1 is accessed by entering a non-conspicuous door in the road leading to the Temen-ni-gru's entrance. In the fifth mission, you acquire an item called "Soul of Steel", with the description "The essence of a powerful and fearless soul. Its possessor need not fear hell nor oblivion." What this does exactly is unclear at best, and it's only with either a guide, curiosity, or some luck that you'll figure out it lets you walk across the pit separating you from your next objective. | |

Through most of the game, Vergil acts as an Aloof Big Brother and Evil Twin to Dante, remaining menacing and softspoken even as he shoves a katana into Dante's gut. He then tries to open the portal to the Demon World with the Perfect Amulet and his own blood. When that fails since Lady's blood is also needed, something Arkham left out on purpose, Vergil's composure cracks. | |

Big Bad Ensemble: In a curious application, Arkham and Vergil only joined forces to Out Gambit each other, but Arkham is the villain who manipulated all the other characters to suit his own ambitions to open the portal to Hell and then get rid of anyone who can stop him from getting Sparda's power. Unfortunately for him, he cedes the actual Final Boss position to Vergil. | |

Blocking Stops All Damage | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_72d43279 | comment |
Blocking Stops All Damage: Dante's Royal Block skill can negate anything if properly done, including explosions, traps, and giant demons clawing at him. Mistimed blocks can break, causing Dante to take damage. The Fallen can use their wings as shields to negate your attacks, but they can still be broken if damaged enough times. | |

Human Chess | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_7359c178 | comment |
Human Chess: The game has you fighting an entire demonic chessboard set in Mission 18. Each life-sized Damned Chessmen piece behaves in ways appropriate to their real-game counterparts. The Pawns take small steps (though they can change direction) and attack not only to the front, but to the back diagonally (as a reference to how a pawn attacks diagonally and the move "en passant." They can also be promoted. Knights can jump over the pieces and attack by landing on Dante (other pieces will try and fail to move through other pieces). The King can only attack in his immediate area, and killing him destroys every other piece on the board, but if he's attacked while the Rooks are alive, he'll switch places with them when hit, as a nod to castling. The Queen can move diagonally and horizontally the full length of the board (though, ironically, this, along with the cackle she makes when she moves, allows her to be the most easily avoidable). Rooks and Bishops also only move and attack along their normal counterparts' paths. | |

Bolivian Army Ending: The last cutscene featuring Vergil has him falling into Hell, severely weakened by the battle he just had with his brother, and right in front of the demon king Mundus. He then declares that if his father beat Mundus, he could as well. The scene cuts right as Vergil charges towards Mundus and the fight is never shown. This is a subversion however, since the events of Devil May Cry 3 happened before the first installment where he's been transformed into Mundus' slave; he obviously lost. | |

Malevolent Architecture: The entire tower of Temen-ni-gru was basically built to be as demonic as possible, justifying the prevalence of traps, and doors locking you with ambushes. The most appropriate examples are in the hallways; if you thought those wall-saw-blades were annoying during fights, expect to see a lot of them in puzzles and platforming sections as well. | |

Establishing Character Moment | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_7febc23b | comment |
Establishing Character Moment: This game manages another one for the younger Dante in its first cutscene, just before the fighting starts — with multiple demons' scythes shoved through his torso and one of his handguns in easy reach... Dante grabs the slice of pizza right next to said handgun instead. He's that unconcerned about the demons and the various scythe blades in his body. Vergil's very first appearance has him silence Arkham who hams up about the Temen-ni-gru, showing his serious nature and how much he just gets straight to the point. Right after, when the Hell Vanguard that Dante previously likely had trouble with shows up on the top of the tower, Vergil easily kills it with just one strike without even looking at it coming from behind him, showing how big the initial gap in power is between Dante and Vergil. | |

Arkham starts laughing at this with Dante joining him shortly after, but both for different reasons: Dante at his own joke and Arkham over how much power that meddling has given him (and how he plans on making Dante eat those words in a second). | |

Attack Its Weak Point | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_82108e3d | comment |
Attack Its Weak Point: The Gigapede's most vulnerable part is its head. Attacking Beowulf's eyes causes him to flinch and be stunned for a short while. Cerberus' heads are the most prominent parts of his body; but his front legs are also vulnerable and attacking them can cause him to collapse allowing you do massive damage. Each individual head can also be completely destroyed with enough damage and doing so locks out one of his attacks. The Leviathan's Heart is basically an entire boss consisting of this, the heart and lungs you beat down being the weak point of the much larger Leviathan. | |

Conservation of Ninjutsu | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_82f5ced1 | comment |
Conservation of Ninjutsu: In the final fight against Arkham, Dante fights him until he's down to half health. Then Vergil shows up, and suddenly you can't use the Devil Trigger or your style moves. This is because the game creates Vergil using the basic mechanics of the Doppelganger style. Since the style requires Devil Trigger to create the Shadow, the player can't use it during the fight. After beating Arkham, Dante and Vergil fight each other, and can once again use their Devil Triggers and style attacks. The Agni and Rudra boss fight is a justified example: when one of the brothers is defeated, the survivor grabs the loser's sword and starts Dual Wielding, gaining access to a few combo attacks. | |

The Three Trials | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_84313b4f | comment |
The Three Trials: In Mission 6, you enter the appropriately-named Chamber of Three Trials and are presented with three challenges representing strength (Trial of the Warrior), skill (Trial of Skill) and intelligence (Trial of Wisdom). These trials reward you with their respective "Essence" key item which can be slotted in the previous room, the Mute Goddess' Chamber. Passing one of them gives you nothing, passing two breaks the rubble blocking the gate in the previous room, and passing all three nets you the Artemis Devil Arm. | |

Cerberus, the game's first proper boss battle after the Hell Vanguard, is no pushover, as he's fought at the end of Mission 3, when the player has limited health, little to no upgrades/items, and no Devil Trigger yet. Worse yet, recklessly attacking Cerberus will cause him to activate his Turns Red phase early, which can easily tear an early-game player apart. | |

Kung Fu-Proof Mook | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_892552b | comment |
Kung Fu-Proof Mook: Hell Wraths shrug off and are impervious to most melee attacks, encouraging the player to use ranged attacks, projectiles and firearms to damage them. Hell Envies are functionally identical to the most basic Hell Prides except for their nigh-immunity to launches and knockbacks. If they are still in their "blood" forms, striking the Blood-goyles with melee attacks will just cause them to split and multiply. They also resist a significant portion of your melee damage in that state, so while it's possible to brute-force them with melee attacks, it will take a long time. The "proper" way to deal with them is to petrify them first with ranged attacks, as they'll receive normal damage from your melee attacks only when they're turned to stone. | |

Denser and Wackier: While this game has a more complex plot than 1 and 2, Dante himself begins to showcase his now-trademark irreverent sense of humor here, likely as a response to 2 where he was constantly dead-serious. Compared to 1 where he mostly had a few one-liners and stunts to demonstrate the Rule of Cool, 3 features over-the-top scenes such as Dante fighting off demons shirtless while eating pizza, riding a missile like it was a skateboard, and using a motorcycle like a set of nunchucks to fight demons while riding up the side of a tower. | |

Beat Them at Their Own Game: Subverted in the final fight, where Vergil picks up the Force Edge, Sparda's other broadsword, to use against Dante who mostly fights using a broadsword, particularly the Rebellion which he inherited from Sparda. In the actual boss battle, Vergil starts fighting almost exactly like Dante, going from a Glass Cannon to a full-fledged Perfect Play A.I., but the cutscenes, especially the final clash between the two, make it evident that Dante was far superior with broadswords. | |

Lady moves her head out of Dante's gun and she returns the favor by shooting another demon behind him. The two then briefly go back to back while shooting some more. | |

He even points out Vergil was weakened enough when he performed a Barehanded Blade Block, so he took advantage of their prior exhaustion. | |

Rule of Symbolism | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_916c72b3 | comment |
Rule of Symbolism: Although subtle at first, the seven bells of Temen-ni-gru are meant to represent the Seven Deadly Sins. This is later made obvious when the bells ring just as Arkham enumerates the sins while opening the gate to the Demon World. Series illustrator Daigo Ikeno also explains this symbolism even further on page 207 of the 3142 Graphic Arts artbook; the bells also have "tortured angels" nailed to each of them, and their ringing sounds symbolize the angels' pained cries. | |

Death or Glory Attack | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_9446f847 | comment |
Death or Glory Attack: The Royal Release is one risky Counter-Attack. With the proper timing, Dante can unleash a powerful punch. Mistime it otherwise, and it will just be a regular Release. Missing this attack completely can also make him briefly vulnerable to whiff punishes. The Devil Trigger explosion qualifies too. If simply used, it's a teeny burst that mildly inconveniences enemies. If charged up fully, with a maxed-out DT gauge, it will One-Hit Kill every minor enemy in the game. However, using it this way leaves you with only a few seconds of Devil Trigger time, so you better hope you got them all. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_9502bbf5 | comment |
All Swords Are the Same: The DMC1 Dante and Legendary Dark Knight costumes change the model of Rebellion into Force Edge, but it's a downplayed example as the sword is also a BFS and still functions the same as the original. | |

Villainous Breakdown | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_957e5fc2 | comment |
Villainous Breakdown: Through most of the game, Vergil acts as an Aloof Big Brother and Evil Twin to Dante, remaining menacing and softspoken even as he shoves a katana into Dante's gut. He then tries to open the portal to the Demon World with the Perfect Amulet and his own blood. When that fails since Lady's blood is also needed, something Arkham left out on purpose, Vergil's composure cracks. Likewise, Arkham after he's defeated by Dante and Vergil and left severely wounded. He comes across his daughter, Lady, and rants about he should have the power of a demon and that what Sparda did was no different from his actions (namely, sacrificing a human woman. However, Sparda did it out of reluctance since he loved his sacrifice, and she went with it willingly and it was for the good of mankind. Arkham did it purely for his own selfish ends). He begs Lady to help him, and she responds (much to his shock) by putting a bullet in his head. | |

Damn You, Muscle Memory! | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_963086ce | comment |
Damn You, Muscle Memory!: Switch between DMC1 and DMC3. The first game had vastly different controls from the ones codified later; notably, jump was assigned to Triangle and melee attacks were done with the Circle button. Thankfully, the latter game lets you remap the controls to your liking. Better yet, try going from 3 back to 1. Again thankfully, the HD Collection remaps the controls of 1 to make them similar to the other games. Certain moves that used to be regular gun button combo strings in DMC2 (Rain Storm, Twosome Time and Fireworks) are now associated with Dante's Gunslinger Style, resulting in revised control inputs. For example, the Rain Storm in 2 is performed by pressing the shoot button after a double jump, kick jump, or wall hike. Here, it can be performed by pressing the Style button any time as long as Dante is in the air. | |

Sword of Plot Advancement: The Rebellion revived Dante and allowed him to enter his Devil Trigger state. The Force Edge allowed Arkham to temporarily assume Sparda's form before the power corrupted him into a hideous blob monster. Dante and Vergil fought over it with the former emerging as the victor. | |

Heel–Face Revolving Door | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_97522514 | comment |
In 1, Trish remarks that Dante "lost a mother and brother to evil twenty years ago." This game's story has Dante encounter his brother a decade or so after Eva's death, and Vergil's status as an antagonist is very questionable. Kamiya's concept was that Vergil was kidnapped when Eva was killed, which explains why Dante didn't recognize Nelo Angelo in 1; why would he connect an evil demon trying to kill him with a little kid who was never anything but a good boy? The memory the amulet triggered was one of his most recent of Vergil. The author of the first novel decided to ignore this and make Vergil free, evil, and badass, meaning that Dante should have had more recent, not just memories but good memories of him since they were temporary partners. Then 3 decided to copy the first novel's Vergil and the second novel's plot. | |

Crippling Overspecialization | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_9aaf8eca | comment |
Crippling Overspecialization: Doppelganger is the last Style obtained by Dante over the course of the game, and summons a doppelganger of Dante on command to fight with him. While the extra Dante takes a load off your back (and even unlocks a 2-player mode), it forces you to use the clone frequently while relying on the non-specialized movesets, causing it to become a hindrance in boss fights where faster dodging, enhanced swordplay, better ranged combat, or blocking would work better. | |

The Blade Always Lands Pointy End In: In the climatic fight against Vergil, the Rebellion stabs the ground after it flies off from Dante's hand. Agni and Rudra fall on their pointy ends when their respective demons are damaged enough and after they are defeated by Dante. In the final battle, the Force Edge falls on its pointy end twice; first when it lands from the portal, and second when it's knocked off from Vergil's hand in the aftermath. | |

No Range Like Point-Blank Range | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_9b6cc16b | comment |
No Range Like Point-Blank Range: One of Dante's signature moves is the "Stinger", a charging stab with his broadsword that closes the distance between him and his target. This game introduced the "Gun Stinger", the same move performed with a charged shotgun blast in order to invoke the trope of shooting the target at point-blank range. Against smaller targets, knockback ensues from the blast. Its Crazy Combo variant is even aptly named "Point Blank", as Dante follows up with more blasts. | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: Royal Guard. If you do manage to pull it off though, it looks amazing. Using Royal Guard to cancel Spiral and Kalina Ann is also difficult but rewarding to master. The style lets you completely nullify damage by pressing block at the right instant just as an attack hits you. This also boosts Style rating, Devil Trigger energy, and lets you save power for monstrous counter-atttacks, but you'll have to memorise enemy attack cues and patterns to get the timing right. Nevan seems all but useless at first, but when you actually master it, it will kick a lot of butt. With precise timing, you can deflect some of the bosses' attacks (such as the Gigapede's orbs and Beowulf's cages) with a melee weapon. This tactic deals significant damage to the bosses but it can obviously backfire on you when mistimed. The Nintendo Switch port's Freestyle Mode and unrestricted weapon switching ramp up the learning curve for Dante, just like his iterations from the later games. These additions require some dexterity to master, but they open up more combos and possibilities. With enough practice, Dante can decimate bosses faster compared to the older DMC3 ports. | |

Eldritch Location: The Underworld's depiction is the most varied in the series thus far, with the majority being a vast white expanse of floating stone, shattered temples, and oddly-structured stairs (as a reference to M.C. Escher's Relativity stairways) where gravity is whatever the geography needs it to be, there are parts where time repeats itself, a dark room resembling an enormous chessboard to simulate a game of Human Chess, and an endless sea of blood with ruins and statues of angels. However in most areas, you can see a swirling vortex of darkness and lightning that resembles an eye watching over demon kind. | |

Conflict Killer: The animosity between Dante, Vergil and Lady is toned down once Arkham's true intentions are revealed, as they all consider killing him to be the top priority. When Arkham becomes a monster in the penultimate mission, the brothers team up in one of the franchise's many awesome moments just to defeat him. Vergil also lampshades it when he arrives. Immediately afterwards, the brothers go back to dueling each other over the power of Sparda stored in the Force Edge. | |

For that matter, Jester's own heterochromia hints at his relation to Lady. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: Being a prequel, DMC3 has some details that connect to the first game: When starting a fresh playthrough, the Yellow Orb from DMC1 can be selected as the player's preferred revival item instead of its Gold Orb counterpart that was introduced since DMC2. When Arkham visits Dante's shop in the beginning, Dante assumes he wants to use the bathroom and tells him "the toilet's in the back." He makes the same assumption about Trish when she storms the shop in the first game, several years later. This game goes back to calling Dante's melee weapons as "Devil Arms" just like in DMC1. This is in contrast to DMC2 which instead called Dante's melee weapons as mere "Swords". Hell Vanguards have the same creepy laughter (alongside other recycled sound effects) as the Sin Scissor demons from DMC1. This is easily noticeable in a certain room that you have to backtrack and one of them spawns in; the demon will appear while this familiar sound effect plays. Apart from the audio, both demon types also share a lot of visual and gameplay-related similarities. Vergil's Summoned Swords are the same weapons that he used as Nelo Angelo in the first game. In here, he breaks them out as well during his boss fight on Dante Must Die mode. Nelo Angelo can also Flash Step, which makes sense because Vergil can do it too via his "Trick" technique. Finally, the bonus post-credits scene shows an exhausted Vergil facing off against Mundus, which would subtly explain how he ends up becoming Nelo Angelo against his will. After fighting Vergil in the Underworld, Dante took the Force Edge to his shop. The old context from the first game (the Force Edge was originally handed down by Sparda) got retconned in the process, but this new scene still justifies why he is in possession of that sword in DMC1. The post-credits scene also shows Dante in his DMC1 outfit, and Eva's portrait is clearly visible in his desk, both referencing the prologue cutscene of the first game. Dante's DMC1 outfit can be unlocked in-game after completing Normal mode. Apart from equipping Force Edge in place of Rebellion, his Devil Trigger form also changes to Sparda's demonic appearance, a reference to the Final Boss battle of the first game wherein Dante takes on the demonic form of his father after the Force Edge awakened as the Sparda sword. In the bonus post-credits scene, Mundus makes a cameo appearance via his three glowing red eyes which are the same ones that signify his early appearances in DMC1. Vergil has an unlockable costume that shows him with nasty-looking scars all over his face, which are the results of his corruption as Nelo Angelo. | |

Camera Screw: At best, you can only slowly rotate the camera left or right, not up and down and it often "locks-on" to bosses during fights, this can screw over the directional inputs for certain moves since they're relative to Dante's facing and cause you to perform moves/jump or roll instead of what you actually intended to do if it changes just before you tried to perform that action. | |

Combat Adjudicators react to melee weapon attacks but not firearms. They are also Immune to Flinching unless you use the proper weapon against them. But even so, they would only shatter when you reach a certain Stylish Rank while attacking them. | |

Amazing Technicolor Battlefield: In the finale, you fight a blob-shaped Arkham in some kind of shallow pool of various shades of purple and pink with a lot of black spots thrown in (Said black spots are the eyes and mouths in the faces of the souls of the damned that make up the pool). The blob-like Legion demons he summons as backups are also writhing in purple technicolor energy. | |

As confirmed by lead motion manager Hiroyuki Nara in page 207 of the 3142 Graphic Arts artbook, the "hand-to-hand combat" of this game pays homage to the Street Fighter series. This trend of referencing the other Capcom franchise would eventually be retained by the next Devil May Cry games. | |

In the fifth mission, you acquire an item called "Soul of Steel", with the description "The essence of a powerful and fearless soul. Its possessor need not fear hell nor oblivion." What this does exactly is unclear at best, and it's only with either a guide, curiosity, or some luck that you'll figure out it lets you walk across the pit separating you from your next objective. | |

In the opening cutscene of Mission 20, Vergil attempts to deliver a vertical downward slash to Dante via the Force Edge. In retaliation, Dante pulls the same attack with Rebellion, and the twins simultaneously catch each other's swords with their off hands. Granted, those hands bleed profusely, but these are the sons of Sparda. | |

One-Hit Kill | |

The Devil Trigger explosion qualifies too. If simply used, it's a teeny burst that mildly inconveniences enemies. If charged up fully, with a maxed-out DT gauge, it will One-Hit Kill every minor enemy in the game. However, using it this way leaves you with only a few seconds of Devil Trigger time, so you better hope you got them all. | |

Healing Factor: Dante and Vergil take tons of damage that would kill normal human beings (notably, Lady shoots Dante in the face four or five times over the course of the story), yet shrug it off like it's nothing. This also comes into play during actual gameplay, where activating Devil Trigger slowly heals them. | |

Shielded Core Boss: Cerberus is covered in ice armor over his body that needs to broken through to attack his body parts, which he'll restore after at least one ice covering is fully destroyed with some time. Leviathan's Heart is encased in a hard shell that opens up for a short time when one of two adjacent organs is destroyed. The other organs recover quickly and you are also constantly swarmed by mooks that make it difficult for you to directly attack the heart. Nevan has an electrical shield that drops when all of the bats surrounding her are destroyed. And then you must instantly attack her at least once or else she'll immediately regenerate the shield to full. | |

Technician/Performer Team-Up: Dante is the performer, preferring to defeat his enemies in a spectacle of gunfire, swordplay, and whatever Devil Arms he can pilfer in the game. On the other hand, Vergil is the technician, being an Iaijutsu Practitioner who uses precise and proper katana strikes, while also having an aversion to firearms, thinking they are worthless. The twin Sparda brothers end up working together to take down Arkham, who is denying the brothers their ultimate match. Arkham by himself managed to give Dante a run for his money, but with Vergil's help, the two manage to overcome him. The two are even able to effortlessly trade swords and use their individual styles, before finishing him off with a combined "Jackpot" attack using Dante's guns. | |

Vergil and especially Arkham seem to know a great deal more about the Temen-ni-gru than Dante however, so it's possible that they found their own, safer way around. | |

After fighting Vergil in the Underworld, Dante took the Force Edge to his shop. The old context from the first game (the Force Edge was originally handed down by Sparda) got retconned in the process, but this new scene still justifies why he is in possession of that sword in DMC1. The post-credits scene also shows Dante in his DMC1 outfit, and Eva's portrait is clearly visible in his desk, both referencing the prologue cutscene of the first game. | |

Retcon | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_b2280b66 | comment |
Retcon: This game retconned most major plot points introduced in the first Devil May Cry game and its prequel novel: In 1, Force Edge was originally a memento handed down to Dante by his father. 2 changed the sword to Rebellion and Force Edge was stuck in the Demon World in 3 until Dante takes it back with him in the end. In 1, Trish remarks that Dante "lost a mother and brother to evil twenty years ago." This game's story has Dante encounter his brother a decade or so after Eva's death, and Vergil's status as an antagonist is very questionable. Kamiya's concept was that Vergil was kidnapped when Eva was killed, which explains why Dante didn't recognize Nelo Angelo in 1; why would he connect an evil demon trying to kill him with a little kid who was never anything but a good boy? The memory the amulet triggered was one of his most recent of Vergil. The author of the first novel decided to ignore this and make Vergil free, evil, and badass, meaning that Dante should have had more recent, not just memories but good memories of him since they were temporary partners. Then 3 decided to copy the first novel's Vergil and the second novel's plot. Vergil was never referred to as Dante's twin by the script of 1. Instead, that game just calls him Dante's "brother". Any in-game mentions of Dante and Vergil being twins started from 3. Dante's speech to Trish in 1 implies that he and Vergil never actually knew Sparda, and all the twins had to go by were the stories Eva would tell them of him. Vergil apparently reminds Dante of Sparda, but the kind of guy that Vergil is just makes that comparison mind-boggling. The name "Devil May Cry" came from Enzo Ferino's testimony in the handbook (in reference to Dante: "He glares at a guy, and even the devil may cry!") but this game changed it to the Title Drop by Lady ("Even a devil may cry when he loses a loved one"). In 1, Trish was the first to know about Dante's quest for revenge. In the manga for this game, the Mad Hatter and White Rabbit (and by extension, Arkham) knew as well. | |

Bottomless Magazines: Though she is often shown reloading in previous cutscenes, Lady plays this straight during Mission 16 when Dante picks a fight with her; she is never seen reloading her Kalina Ann rocket launcher.

Agni and Rudra are twin living demon swords that have identical designs, including their headless bodies. They are also color-coded; Agni is orange-themed while Rudra is turquoise-themed, fitting for their respective fire and wind powers. | |

Boss-Altering Consequence | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_b915b765 | comment |
Boss-Altering Consequence: If you kill either Agni or Rudra but leave the other one alive for too long, the remaining brother will pick up his dead brother's sword, starts Dual Wielding, and gains access to new, deadlier combos. The Leviathan's Heart fight can become easier or harder depending on which adjacent "lung" should the player focus on (you cannot attack both at once). If you haven't attacked the left lung for a while, it will absorb the Red Orbs dropped by slain Hell Envies. Inversely, the right lung will drain your Devil Trigger gauge if it's left unchecked. | |

Goomba Springboard: The ability to jump off enemies' heads already existed in the first game as "Kick Jump". Although the implementation is the same, and the ability is still tied to the Wall Jump mechanic just like in 1, this game officially named it as "Enemy Step". There's also a Secret Mission centered around this. | |

Taunting the Transformed | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_b9cb52d3 | comment |
Taunting the Transformed: Arkham steals the power of the Ascended Demon Sparda and uses it to transform himself into a demon, taking on a form mimicking Sparda's appearance. He asks Dante, Sparda's son, what he thinks of his father's image, to which Dante responds, "It's like staring into a backed-up toilet!". When the transformation mutates Arkham again, this time into a hideous Blob Monster, Dante quips that he thinks this shape suits Arkham better. | |

Likewise, Arkham after he's defeated by Dante and Vergil and left severely wounded. He comes across his daughter, Lady, and rants about he should have the power of a demon and that what Sparda did was no different from his actions (namely, sacrificing a human woman. However, Sparda did it out of reluctance since he loved his sacrifice, and she went with it willingly and it was for the good of mankind. Arkham did it purely for his own selfish ends). He begs Lady to help him, and she responds (much to his shock) by putting a bullet in his head. | |

Improbable Aiming Skills: Amongst many examples that could be given, in the intro, Dante both flips a billard table over and proceeds to shoot the cue ball, initiating an aerial game of pool to take place which knocks out a couple of demons when the balls hit their heads. At a later point, he also deflects bullets by shooting them out of their trajectory path, and there is one cutscene where he propels Rebellion through the air by shooting its pommel. This also becomes a gameplay mechanic during the battle with Lady, where Dante can block her pistol shots by shooting them out of the air with Ebony & Ivory. | |

Battle in the Rain: The first Dante vs. Vergil battle has the twins fight on top of Temen-ni-gru while it's raining. In true over-the-top form present in the series, the rain serves as a handy visual of how fast the Sons of Sparda are; their blades are moving so quickly they are creating a dry bubble around the two as their swords swat away every individual raindrop. | |

Early-Bird Boss | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_bd6b6284 | comment |
Early-Bird Boss: The Hell Vanguard in Mission 2. On your first playthrough, the real difficulties of this fight come from the playable character's lack of upgrades as early as this point, and the Hell Vanguard's gimmick of parrying your own melee attacks to execute a Counter-Attack on you (which deals significant damage). That being said, they later on become just another elite enemy, spawning along other enemies and even along other Hell Vanguards. Once Dante does re-encounter them, he's got plenty of arsenal and upgrades with him, and will generally dispatch of them more easily. However, the higher difficulties and Bloody Palace instead turn them into bosses in mook's clothing, especially when you have to fight against three of them at the same time, as in Bloody Palace. | |

New Powers as the Plot Demands: In the first game, the Yamato is only available when playing with the "Legendary Dark Knight" costume, and although the lore on its description mentions that it has "will and the power to divide and wipe out the darkness", it functions identically to the Alastor. In this game, Vergil uses it to enhance his Iaijutsu moves, he can create slashes from afar by quickly unsheathing it (Judgement Cut), and its Devil Arms File mentions that its blade can cut through anything. | |

Cutscene Incompetence | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_c5e42cbd | comment |
Cutscene Incompetence: Even if you beat Vergil on top of the tower without getting hit once, the cutscene makes it look like you were losing the whole time, with Dante panting and barely keeping up while Vergil calmly deflects most of his attacks. Then Vergil stabs Dante through the guts with his own sword. In cutscenes, Dante mostly never uses other equipment apart from the default Rebellion and Ebony and Ivory. Even if there are cutscenes wherein Dante demonstrates a new Devil Arm after acquiring them, they never appear again in other segments or aren't used for combat. Likewise, Dante and Vergil never use Devil Trigger in most cutscenes except for the one where Dante acquires his. | |

Strong Family Resemblance | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_c5fe6c81 | comment |
Strong Family Resemblance: Obviously with Dante and Vergil as they are identical twins, but this becomes really noticeable when Vergil is caught in the rain and his hair is slicked down just like Dante's. If the Legendary Dark Knight costumes are any indication, Dante and Vergil inherit their similar looks from their father Sparda. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: According to character designer Daigo Ikeno, Lady's appearance was inspired by "the black-haired Julia Volkova of the Russian girl group" t.A.T.u. As confirmed by lead motion manager Hiroyuki Nara in page 207 of the 3142 Graphic Arts artbook, the "hand-to-hand combat" of this game pays homage to the Street Fighter series. This trend of referencing the other Capcom franchise would eventually be retained by the next Devil May Cry games. Arkham's name is a reference to the fictional town Arkham Massachussets from the works of H. P. Lovecraft. Jester is an expy of The Joker from the Batman franchise. A convention also revealed that Jester was named "Joker" when the game was still in development. The re-releases of the game eventually added more Batman and Joker references surrounding Jester and Arkham - The Jester boss fights in the Special Edition include a voice clip where he refers to himself as "Joker" instead of Jester. In the HD Collection, the achievement for defeating Arkham is titled "Asylum", referencing the Arkham Asylum which is more commonly associated with the word "Arkham" in pop culture. The series' Theme Naming borrows heavily from The Divine Comedy. Dante - Writer and main character of The Divine Comedy. Vergil - Dante's guide through Hell and Purgatory that was based on a real Roman poet Publius Vergilius Maro. Lady/Mary - Refers to the Catholic Madonna ("Our Lady" in Italian), otherwise known as the Virgin Mary. The manga has a "dungeon" that is practically a nightmarish version of Alice in Wonderland, as well as characters named Alice and Mad Hatter. The beginning of Arkham's speech at the end of Mission 15 is based on a part of the poem "Au Lecteur" note "To the Reader" in English by French poet Charles Baudelaire. In the Netherworld, the Lost Souls Nirvana is a pristine white version of M.C. Escher's Relativity stairways. In the HD Collection, finishing the game on Dante Must Die mode earns you the "Hell Hath No Fury..." achievement, named after a quote from the 1697 play, The Mourning Bride by William Congreve. The Clear Bonus Art obtained from getting SS ranks on all Normal mode missions is a reference to the Super Sentai series. Model designer Jun Ikawa confirmed it in the 3142 Graphic Arts interviews, as it was he who made that wallpaper. | |

Unlockable Difficulty Levels: Apart from the series' recurring trend of unlocking the next difficulty mode upon clearing the previous one, this game also puts a twist or add more to that pattern. The game unlocks an "Easy" mode if you die three times on the Normal mode. In the Special Edition of 3, beating "Hard" mode unlocks "Very Hard" (a mode that's not present in the original version), which further unlocks the "Must Die" mode, and so forth. | |

The Royal Release is one risky Counter-Attack. With the proper timing, Dante can unleash a powerful punch. Mistime it otherwise, and it will just be a regular Release. Missing this attack completely can also make him briefly vulnerable to whiff punishes. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_cbd0ac32 | comment |
Environmental Symbolism: Dante's first battle with Vergil is on the top of the Temen-ni-gru tower in the moonlight and rain. It's obvious since the sun isn't rising any time soon and the rain isn't stopping either, Dante won't be winning. Their second fight is in a much grimmer and dingier area because neither is going to win. Their final battle in a river of the Underworld is completely climactic (Orchestra and Latin music is playing in the background too) as the losing twin Vergil decides to dive down from atop the "waterfall". | |

Mundane Made Awesome: The first cutscenes have dramatic flair over simple acts, serving as Dante's Establishing Character Moment. For example, Dante sits on his chair and answers a phone call with style by using the force of a kick. He then eats a pizza in slow motion during battle with demons and while scythes are sticking out of his body. He also does the most epic instance of putting on a coat ever by throwing it up, then catching and wearing it immediately at the same time. | |

Sympathy for the Devil | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_d3a4af1e | comment |
Sympathy for the Devil: Arkham manages to use his status as Lady's father to manipulate her into moving into the place he needs her. He tries it again before the final battle when he's kicked out of the demon world by not being able to handle Sparda's power. He's near death at this point, so he loses and lets it slip that he saw absolutely nothing wrong with killing his wife to become part-demon. Lady finally has enough. At the same time as the latter scene, Dante obviously feels similar about Vergil since the two are brothers. He doesn't feel good about having to fight him, but has to due to Vergil's ambitions being dangerous towards humanity. He even cries for a moment thinking about Vergil's fate when he meets back up with Lady in the epilogue. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_d47d9b71 | comment |
Mirror Boss: Though Vergil's Yamato moveset shares no similarities with Dante's Rebellion, the two battle on perfectly equal ground regardless. In the second duel, both characters can activate a Devil Trigger state, and Vergil performs moves with Beowulf that Dante can also do when he picks up the gauntlets later. In the third duel, Vergil wields Force Edge alongside his Yamato, which allows him to pull off, at the very least, a Helm Breaker-to-Stinger combo very similar to Dante's moves with the Rebellion. Doppelganger takes on Dante's form, initially adopting his Devil Trigger state and mimicking his attacks with the Rebellion and Beowulf Devil Arms as well as his Trickster Style, but resembling his normal state when exposed to the light. | |

Lightning Bruiser: Beowulf is a towering behemoth who is surprisingly agile and loves to beat you down with nothing more than his claws. The Quicksilver style causes Dante to slow time to a crawl, allowing you to beat on your foes with utmost impunity. The sheer usability of the style, combined with its relatively easier-to-sustain cost - constant drain of the DT Gauge - means that Dante can spam this all he wants, and experiment with new strategies. | |

Punch Parry | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_ddca0dbf | comment |
Punch Parry: After defeating Doppelganger and obtaining its power, a clone of Dante is summoned in front of him. Like a mirror, their simultaneous punches land on each other's fists. While they followed it up with close-quarters kicking, their mirrored attacks still cancel each other out just like the initial punch. | |

Absurdly Sharp Blade | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_e0c00a95 | comment |
Cutscenes turn the Yamato's Absurdly Sharp Blade factor up to eleven, making it seem like everything else dies of being in the same room with it even without showing a direct contact with the blade. This is demonstrated by Vergil when he jumps on the head of Beowulf, then after slowly sheathing his katana, the demon's face is sliced in half. There's also that time when Vergil lined up bullets from Dante's handguns, then tossed them back at him. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_e294a0be | comment |
Our Souls Are Different: The souls of defeated demons turn into Devil Arms/combat Styles for use by whoever gets them, but it's never known what exactly happens to a human soul once their bodies are destroyed. In DMC1, devils are pretty much referred to as having no souls at all to speak of. The same concept is said about humans that "become devils" in 3. | |

Turns Red | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_e3ab9e00 | comment |
Turns Red: If you try to take on more than one head at a time, Cerberus will literally turn red and you will have a serious problem on your hands, as his attacks become faster, more aggressive, and gain more devastating properties, while he becomes stunned less often. Woe betide if you manage to trigger this near the beginning of the battle, although this will also occur when his health gets low enough. Agni or Rudra become more vicious once the other twin has been slain, attacking with both swords and gaining new moves in the process. Nevan's offensive and defensive capabilities are directly linked to her health; she summons more bats and lightning bolts in the same move, and her bat shield requires more hits to be destroyed when she gets low on health. She also gains access to a kiss attack that heals her. Beowulf moves aggressively faster and uses light-based attacks once his health has been whittled. During the final fight against Vergil, bringing his HP down to a certain threshold would make his Devil Trigger form last longer than usual. | |

Never Bring a Knife to a Fist Fight: Although the second fight with Vergil starts with him using the Beowulf gauntlets and greaves, he pulls out his Yamato katana after he finds out having the hand-to-hand weapon isn't stopping Dante from kicking his ass. Jester/Arkham easily managed to beat and knock Dante, Lady, and Vergil with some close-quarters-combat, martial arts, and a sweeping kick despite having up to three bladed weapons pointed at him. He even points out Vergil was weakened enough when he performed a Barehanded Blade Block, so he took advantage of their prior exhaustion. | |

It Was a Gift: Yamato and Rebellion to Vergil and Dante, passed down by Sparda. Their amulets, on the other hand, were passed down by Eva. | |

Boke and Tsukkomi Routine | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_eee69e44 | comment |
Boke and Tsukkomi Routine: The boss fight cutscenes in Mission 5 present Agni and Rudra as the comedy duo, along with Dante as the Straight Man, having this routine in their conversations. The subversion comes from the fact that the two weapons aren't entirely stupid (although Agni apparently doesn't know what a sigh is), but are extremely chatty instead, much to Dante's annoyance. | |

When the Hell Vanguard that attacked Dante in Mission 2 retreated near Vergil on top of the tower, he impales the demon behind him without looking back, it froze in place, and then explodes after Vergil sheathed his katana. | |

Trying Not to Cry: After Lady shoots and kills her father Arkham, she breaks down into tears. Before the cutscene ends, she notes that she was not expecting to cry and tries to recover. Dante sheds a single tear during the final cutscene before the credits, but stops himself from showing any further display of emotions because Lady is watching him. | |

Franchise Codifier | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_f470199 | comment |
Franchise Codifier: The Devil May Cry series has always focused on Stylish Action from the beginning, but since the first two games have a lot of Early-Installment Weirdness, it's only until Devil May Cry 3 that the series showed significant consistency. Subsequent games would all derive from the gameplay design, mechanics and features of this game; from having 20 numbered missions, the Stylish Ranks capping at SSS, an expansive main menu, a gallery, Real-Time Weapon Change for both ranged and melee weapons, Stance System, recurring combo animations, and even simple HUD elements such as the gauges being segmented into bars. Story-wise, it also set the foundation for Dante and Vergil's characterizations that are followed by the next games within the main continuity, even if it had to retcon some plot points from the first game. | |

Wake-Up Call Boss | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f | comment |
Wake-Up Call Boss: Cerberus, the game's first proper boss battle after the Hell Vanguard, is no pushover, as he's fought at the end of Mission 3, when the player has limited health, little to no upgrades/items, and no Devil Trigger yet. Worse yet, recklessly attacking Cerberus will cause him to activate his Turns Red phase early, which can easily tear an early-game player apart. If Cerberus didn't send the message, Agni & Rudra will as they're the game's first Dual Boss, fought at the end of Mission 5 when a player likely still has limited health, little upgrades, and still no Devil Trigger, and once one of them is beaten the other whips out an even stronger moveset via Dual Wielding, making it clear this where the game stops holding your hand. | |

Artistic License – Physics: While the series does its best to ignore physics completely, it does at one point mention how Dante is too cool for the law of conservation of momentum. The description of Spiral's "Reflector" skill states that Dante ricochets the bullet off nearby surfaces to increase its speed and deal maximum damage, even if collisions of that kind should've reduced the kinetic energy. | |

Theme Naming | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
The series' Theme Naming borrows heavily from The Divine Comedy. Dante - Writer and main character of The Divine Comedy. Vergil - Dante's guide through Hell and Purgatory that was based on a real Roman poet Publius Vergilius Maro. Lady/Mary - Refers to the Catholic Madonna ("Our Lady" in Italian), otherwise known as the Virgin Mary. | |

Vergil's very first appearance has him silence Arkham who hams up about the Temen-ni-gru, showing his serious nature and how much he just gets straight to the point. Right after, when the Hell Vanguard that Dante previously likely had trouble with shows up on the top of the tower, Vergil easily kills it with just one strike without even looking at it coming from behind him, showing how big the initial gap in power is between Dante and Vergil. | |

| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: 3 follows up on the "Jackpot!" brick from 1, with Vergil getting in on the action as he and Dante deal the killshot. The subtext is that Dante and Vergil started out in the demon slaying business together, and "Jackpot!" was something they liked to say. After the Car Fu segment, Dante discards the handlebars of Lady's bike. One of the unlockable Game Clear artworks shows her holding them, giving Dante a Death Glare while he casually walks away. In the first mission, Dante is pissed at the demons who wrecked his shop, and one of his reasons include the fact that he hasn't named his shop yet. In the epilogue, Dante finally decided for a name, "Devil May Cry". | |

Cutscene Power to the Max | |
| Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (Video Game) / int_fe262584 | comment |
Cutscene Power to the Max: Dante pulls off several moves and killshots in cutscenes that are nigh-impossible in gameplay (though there is one cutscene move that he can actually do in normal gameplay; surfing on downed enemies). In the prologue, he shrugs off horrific injuries to kill his enemies with the pieces of their own weapons embedded in his body. After defeating Cerberus, he casually dodges and surfs on a rocket fired by Lady. Special mention goes to the various cutscenes where he travels down or up the side of Temen-ni-gru, usually slicing and shooting apart hordes of demons with tons of flashy moves that he can't quite pull off when you're controlling him (and that's not even mentioning his feat of using the motorcycle as a melee weapon). Cutscenes turn the Yamato's Absurdly Sharp Blade factor up to eleven, making it seem like everything else dies of being in the same room with it even without showing a direct contact with the blade. This is demonstrated by Vergil when he jumps on the head of Beowulf, then after slowly sheathing his katana, the demon's face is sliced in half. There's also that time when Vergil lined up bullets from Dante's handguns, then tossed them back at him. | |

Our Gargoyles Rock: The Blood-goyles are flying demons made out of blood, but can turn into stone. In "blood" form, they significantly resist melee damage and would split into more Blood-goyles if you strike them anyway. It's possible to kill them by brute-forcing your melee attacks, but it takes a long time. The game recommends you to forcibly turn Blood-goyles into stone using ranged attacks before you can properly smash them with your melee attacks. | |
