DmC: Devil May Cry is a Hack and Slash Action-Adventure Video Game developed by Ninja Theory. First announced as a Continuity Reboot to the Devil May Cry series, it later became a prequel, and was eventually released as an Alternate Continuity set in a parallel universe.In this alternate continuity, demons secretly run the world, controlling everything from the media to the financial sector to food production, and keeping a close eye on all. Living on the fringes of the brainwashed society is Dante, the orphaned son of an angel and a demon at odds with the demons who have made his life hell for as long as he can remember. Over the course of his battles through the twisted streets of Limbo, Dante is contacted by a mysterious psychic named Kat on behalf of The Order, a rogue group led by Dante's long lost brother Vergil. Vergil, a millionaire computer genius, is hell-bent on exposing the demons to the world and freeing Limbo City from their clutches.Gameplay combines multiple elements from previous entries, with further emphasis on platforming and aerial combos: the Stance System, for instance, now involves Dante switching between demonic and angelic powers on the fly in both combat and exploration segments. However, a large arsenal of weapons is still available, including the classic longsword, a demonic axe, an angelic scythe, and flaming gauntlets. Dante's signature Devil Trigger also returns, now allowing you to temporarily freeze time for even more carnage. Exploration and platforming makes use of the Malice, where Dante alternates between the gloomy-looking real world and a demonic parallel world with distorted architecture and vivid colors where even the city itself is trying to kill you.DmC was released in North America and Europe on January 15, 2013 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and on January 25 for Windows. The game was remastered with a Definitive Edition featuring all DLC included for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as well as the graphical capabilities of the original PC version. New features include hard-locking on enemies, a higher difficulty mode beyond Dante Must Die called "Gods Must Die", new game modifiers such as Turbo (which speeds things up), "Must Style" (where enemies won't take damage until the Stylish Rank is S or higher), and "Hardcore" modes (which introduces gameplay changes that make the game a little closer to the old Devil May Cry titles), and a Bloody Palace mode for Vergil. There are also new costumes (such as a Devil May Cry 1-styled Dante outfit). Certain gameplay nuances were also tweaked (such as being able to damage enemies with anything when they previously required a specific weapon alignment to be damaged).The game has a prequel graphic novel of its own, titled DmC: Devil May Cry - The Chronicles of Vergil, which depicts Vergil's first meeting with and recruitment of Kat, as well as his subsequent efforts to find the missing Dante. Its canonicity is debatable. There is also a Downloadable Content episode released after launch, called "Vergil's Downfall" that focuses on the namesake character. | |

Pregnant Hostage | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_1122f435 | comment |
Pregnant Hostage: In an unusual twist, it's the heroes who take Lilith hostage specifically because she's pregnant with Mundus's Enfant Terrible so they can trade her for Kat. They don't bother being nice about it either, since both she and the Fetus Terrible are clearly monsters, but Dante's mildly uncomfortable with it whereas Vergil kills them both in the middle of the hostage exchange to provoke Mundus. | |

| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The original continuity, while somewhat gothic, still had a substantial amount of optimism and upbeat tone (mostly thanks to Dante being such a laid-back badass). This universe is rife with conspiracy, secret wars, and a Dante who is considerably more angry at the world than his more carefree alternate universe counterpart. "Edgy" is definitely a theme throughout the DmC world. | |

Second Hour Superpower | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_19787667 | comment |
Second Hour Superpower: DmC is more straightforward with its gameplay mechanic progression than the classic Devil May Cry games. At first, Dante only has his BFS and two handguns, then Mission 2 unlocks the ability to transform his Rebellion into Angel/Demon forms (as a way to teach you the Stance System and Real-Time Weapon Change mechanics), then Mission 3 gives him the ability to Angel Dash (the platforming becomes more varied by this point). | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The reason why some concepts from the 2010 Tokyo Game Show trailer of the game were cut from the finished version, is because Capcom had to step in and address the negative fan backlash. From the said trailer, Dante's appearance is more rugged, he had a smoking habit, and one scene has him bound and being interrogated. In the game's released version on 2013, Dante appears to be much younger, no longer has scars, and drops the smoking. The "interrogation scene" was also totally scrapped. | |

Notice This: Aside from the recurring series-wide examples such as collectibles glowing and the camera focusing on the next destination, this game also features several visual cues that help you in combat and exploration. Generally, entering Angel or Demon mode makes conspicuous objects glow with their respective color if they can be interacted with using the appropriate weapons. Some enemies will also have glowing body parts to indicate that they've been staggered, if their weaknesses have been exposed, or if they are vulnerable and can be pulled over. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: DmC Dante calling his Ebony & Ivory handguns as "girls" in the first mission serves as an inverted reference to the classic Dante calling his Ebony & Ivory handguns as "guys" in the prologue of the first Devil May Cry game. Using Devil Trigger temporarily turns Dante's hair white and his coat blood red. All of the Achievement/Trophy names are quotes from the original series, most of them from Dante, but a few from other characters as well. In one of the first small scenes, an explosion causes a long haired white wig to land on Dante's head, making him look like the previous design of the character (which was used in all previous instalments of the franchise). After a pause to examine his reflection, he says "not in a million years" and shrugs the hairpiece off. At the end of the last cutscene, his hair has turned totally white and grown long enough to have bangs covering his eyes like the original incarnation, though he still retains his shaven punkish style. A less emphasized one is regarding Eva. As noted above under the Adaptation Dye-Job entry, the Eva of this continuity has a different hair color than her classic counterpart, but the original series Eva was shown (via a portrait on Dante's desk) to frequently wear a red coat. Thus, the Eva of this game retains the red color motif of her classic counterpart, by way of her blood red hair. In the first game of the main continuity, Dante can equip an item called the Bangle of Time which changes his Devil Trigger to an ability that stops time. In DmC, Dante's Devil Trigger doesn't stop time per se, but massively slows it down to a crawl that enemies become frozen in mid-air. The classic Dante's "Flock off, feather-face!" pun in DMC1 is subtly repeated here when DmC Dante first meets the Harpies. By the end of the Vergil's Downfall DLC campaign, Vergil's hair will be spiky and slicked back, evoking the iconic hairstyle of his classic counterpart. He will also have Glowing Eyes of Doom and blue Tainted Veins on his face, an allusion to the classic Vergil's first appearance as Nelo Angelo. The "Classic Dante" DLC costume evokes the appearance of the original continuity's Dante from Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening. The Definitive Edition also features a "DMC1 Dante" costume referencing the original's outfit from the first game, and a "Classic Vergil" costume referencing the original Vergil's appearance from DMC3. | |

Ascended Glitch | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_26ba32a3 | comment |
Ascended Glitch: Jump Cancel (a technique that allows you to bounce off an enemy in order to repeat an action that can normally only be done once in a single jump) has always been an exploitable trick in the previous games, but it was technically "unofficial" (since Enemy Step is really meant as a tool to change your direction in the air when near an enemy) but Capcom has never removed it (back when it was originally known by fans as "Shotgun Hiking" in DMC1). DmC is the first game in the series to actually show off jump cancelling in official media. Particularly, one of the loading screens demonstrate a neat jump cancel with the Rebellion's Helm Breaker. | |

Sexual Karma | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_2a4e8051 | comment |
Sexual Karma: Though he isn't shown doing it, there's a clear contrast between how the heroic Dante is a hit with the dancers at the night club and states to get laid a lot and how the villainous Mundus' sex scene with Lilith is not arousing at well, as well as unfulfilling to him. | |

Breaking Old Trends | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_311500f5 | comment |
Breaking Old Trends: DmC no longer relies on the Metroidvania-esque level design that's present in the past games of the series. Save for the cutscene transitions, the stages are now seamless, unlike the past games where you had to go through or interact with doors and gates when moving to the next area. As a result, the map and mini-map features are no longer present. The next game released, Devil May Cry 5, followed what DmC did in this aspect, thus the metroidvania elements became a relic of the past. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: While the PC port of the game is known to have numerous bugs that would render the rest of the level unplayable, most (if not all) of these were actually fixed in the Definitive Edition of the game. An example happens if you try to reload a checkpoint or die in Mission 4, the "Church" cutscene will freeze, preventing the player from completing the mission. Players were otherwise advised to try completing the said mission without going back to the main menu in order to avoid this bug. | |

Ruder and Cruder: Profanity in the series might have started slightly because of Devil May Cry 4, but it gets taken to an extreme here in DmC, where practically every character is a complete Sir Swears-a-Lot, with the infamous example occurring during the encounter with the Succubus when she and Dante exchange F-bombs. There's also the cutscene at the beginning, following Dante hooking up with a pair of strippers, where he stands in full view from his doorway completely naked while talking to Kat as people pass by on the street. | |

Devil Trigger makes Dante stronger just like in the classic games, but it also allows him to suspend enemies in the air. In contrast, Vergil can summon a doppelganger that mimics his moves. The "Super" Perks for Dante and Vergil also grant unlimited Devil Trigger just like the Super Costumes of the classic games, though in DmC, they can be mixed with the various cosmetic outfits. | |

Stance System | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_44e013e4 | comment |
Stance System: Aside from the standard attacks and combos, the combat revolves around switching between "Angel Mode" and "Demon Mode" by holding their respective keys or triggers. Each mode has its own associated moves and weapons, but Angel mode focuses on fast crowd-hitting attacks, while Demon Mode focuses on slow heavy-damage attacks. The stance system also affects how the player handles the platforming segments by grappling on specific environmental objects. This is more straightforward when playing as Vergil; even though he only has the Yamato, Sword Illusions, and the Doppelganger Devil Trigger in his arsenal, their properties vary depending on the active stance. | |

The most glaring example is Poison the Succubus. In other media, succubi are usually portrayed as very attractive, bat-winged women, while this Succubus of DmC is a vulgar, disgusting and multi-armed caterpillar. The mythological resemblance is only "partially" accurate, since in the original myths and medieval demonology texts, succubi were hideous beings that used Glamour to appear as beautiful women and seduce men in their sleep. | |

Simplified Spellcasting | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_4de155b8 | comment |
Simplified Spellcasting: To cast a spell to affect Limbo, you can spend hours mixing ingredients, researching, combining and painting the symbols to get them just right...or you can prepare the ingredients in an aerosol can and spray it through a stencil. | |

Our Demons Are Different | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_50ed1af4 | comment |
Our Demons Are Different: Demons can disguise themselves as humans and blend into society. The most glaring example is Poison the Succubus. In other media, succubi are usually portrayed as very attractive, bat-winged women, while this Succubus of DmC is a vulgar, disgusting and multi-armed caterpillar. The mythological resemblance is only "partially" accurate, since in the original myths and medieval demonology texts, succubi were hideous beings that used Glamour to appear as beautiful women and seduce men in their sleep. | |

Money for Nothing: Red Orbs, obtained from killing enemies and destroying environmental objects, only purchase items, which are of variable importance depending on one's skill, while there's a "stat point" currency system used purchase new skills. This had the effect of making Red Orbs fairly unimportant since a good player wouldn't need to purchase recovery items to stay alive. | |

Sequel Hook: Several are set up at the end. The WE HAVE AWOKEN message being displayed on-screen; Limbo is merged with the human world, so the public now knows demons and humans co-exist, laying bare all demonic manipulations. The world is forever changed and chaos almost certainly lies ahead. Vergil leaves after the battle to places unknown (and does so again after the Vergil's Downfall campaign). Dante has now sworn to protect humans and developed his powers further, as indicated by his hair becoming totally white in the final cutscene just like how it does when he's in Devil Trigger, but he has not yet reached his full potential, whatever that may be. | |

Real-Time Weapon Change | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_6e9277c | comment |
Real-Time Weapon Change: DMC1 allowed switch between two weapons, DMC3 between four weapons, DMC4 between seven. DmC between eight. To elaborate, on one hand you use the triggers to switch stances, on the other hand you use the D-Pad to change the Angel weapon (left), the Demon weapon (right) and the fire-arm (up), Rebellion being the default melee weapon when you're not holding a trigger. This game's system also has the benefit of very smoothly mapping to keyboard plus mouse control for PC gamers. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: The Updated Re-release replaced the elemental immunity of Angel/Demon-infused enemies with taking less damage and not flinch from attacks they resist... and completely removed the relevant tutorial slide. Considering Takes One to Kill One is the opposite of what one might expect, this can be a hard lesson to figure out for yourself. In the vanilla version and DE version, Dante gains speed and moves faster at higher style ratings starting at A. The game never drops any hints of this at all in the tutorial or screen hints while loading. Most players won't realize this on their first run through the game. | |

Blocking Stops All Damage: Several enemies can put up a defensive stance with their shields (Dreamrunners and Drekavacs use their blades instead), negating any upcoming attacks. However, they can be easily broken down using Dante's demonic weapons or Vergil's Demon Mode attacks. | |

Unblockable Attack | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_778b1d91 | comment |
In melee, the Demon weapons Arbiter and Eryx are both slow, heavy and used to dish out tons of damage, good for breaking blocks and defences but less useful against very mobile foes. The Angel weapons Osiris and Aquila are relatively weak, but their attacks cover a wide radius and hit faster - in the case of Aquila, much faster - making them well-suited to aerial combos. Rebellion is somewhere in the middle in terms of damage and close to Osiris in terms of speed. | |

In an inverted case, the player can throw their Arbiter's axe head at enemies, and some late-game enemies or Boss in Mook Clothing will hit it back if their defenses are up. If the player manages to time it right, they can then stun the enemy by hitting it back, turning this into one of the shortest applications of this trope. | |

Recycled Title: This Alternate Continuity "reboot" developed by Ninja Theory is titled DmC: Devil May Cry, with its subtitle being the name of its parent franchise. Taking the acronym into consideration, it can be interpreted as "Devil may Cry: Devil May Cry". According to behind-the-scenes sources such as page 222 of the 3142 Graphic Arts artbook, the redundant and recycled subtitle was added as a workaround because the game was originally meant to be titled as just DmC, yet it's not possible to trademark a three-letter title. | |

Conservation of Ninjutsu | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_82f5ced1 | comment |
Conservation of Ninjutsu: If there are a bunch of enemies of the same type (e.g. the Stygians), they're going to be weak and easily dispatched despite their number. If there's only one or two of the same type (e.g. Dreamrunners or Rages), they're more likely to be Elite Mooks or a Boss in Mook Clothing, causing the fight to be tough as nails. Usually, the game will only spawn the few stronger types after all the many weaker types are dealt with. | |

Super Mode | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_844b6779 | comment |
Super Mode: Devil Trigger makes Dante stronger just like in the classic games, but it also allows him to suspend enemies in the air. In contrast, Vergil can summon a doppelganger that mimics his moves. The "Super" Perks for Dante and Vergil also grant unlimited Devil Trigger just like the Super Costumes of the classic games, though in DmC, they can be mixed with the various cosmetic outfits. Elite Mooks get their own version on lower difficulties, called Enrage. They turn gold, are Immune to Flinching and can unleash deadly unblockable attacks. As per series tradition, the enemies and bosses can also have their own Devil Trigger state in the Dante Must Die and Vergil Must Die difficulty modes. This is taken up to eleven in the Gods Must Die difficulty mode where enemies spawn in Devil Trigger state. | |

"Just Frame" Bonus | |

"Just Frame" Bonus: The most common example in the franchise has the player delay one attack somewhere in the basic combo, which completely changes the rest of the combo. DmC helps players time the delay by having Dante's sword shine at the point when the next attack should be executed. The Demon Evade mechanic encourages perfectly-timed evasions as doing so will boost Dante's next attacks. | |

Hit Stop | |

Hit Stop: The camera dramatically zooms in on the last attack that kills the last enemy of a wave; the action is briefly set in slow-mo to emphasize this. With proper timing, the Kicker and Uppercut follow-ups of the respective Demon Pull and Angel Pull abilities can have a slow-motion effect if the button is pressed at the right moment when the enemy is close to Dante. Kicker is notable for this, as it even has a unique animation where the camera zooms in on Dante as he performs a roundhouse kick instead of the usual front kick animation. | |

It is a quiet scene where the two women are slowly walking forward towards their allies.

Art Shift | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_912b24c4 | comment |
Art Shift: While the game's overall look has a punkish, pop-art flavor, Dante's flashbacks are depicted in the style of Italian Baroque paintings with character-appropriate tweaks. Caravaggio, a 17th century artist, gets a lot of direct homage: seven-year-old Dante holding a demon's decapitated head is David with the Head of Goliath, Eva's death is posed similarly to The Death of the Virgin, and teenage Dante getting roughed up by police looks a lot like The Taking of Christ (except that Jesus wasn't trying to punch his captors' lights out). There's also the Pietà Plagiarism mentioned below. Later, the story of the angelic/demonic war, Sparda and Eva's love, their sons, and Sparda's ultimate fate uses a series of graffiti murals, including a nod to Gustav Klimt. Many of the cutscenes during the Vergil's Downfall DLC are portrayed as highly stylized, deeply shaded, lightly animated scenes. It gives it a rigid comic book style as a result. | |

Rule of Symbolism | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_916c72b3 | comment |
Rule of Symbolism: When in Limbo, most of the real world is hard to see through all of the fog and twisted landscape. What's left that's easy to see? Gambling machines and carnival rides. Apparently your addictions really will follow you into hell. Similarly, every major plot cutscene get visual symbolism all over the place - look at what's behind Dante when he wakes up in the opening level, or where Vergil and Dante are located when in front of a painting depicting half demons and half angels. | |

Damn You, Muscle Memory! | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_963086ce | comment |
Damn You, Muscle Memory!: Even though DmC retains some similar moves from the classic continuity, the absence of a hard lock-on function in the vanilla version means that it will take some time for series veterans to get used to the new controls. For example, Stinger requires you to tap the left stick in a direction twice instead of simply holding it towards the enemy you're locked on. The Definitive Edition eventually added the hard lock-on function, allowing players to emulate the classic DMC controls. | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: The game has a parry mechanic that involves clashing weapons with enemies. While the timing is strict, the results can be very worth it. The Arbiter is the slowest melee weapon in the game, but it has a very high damage potential. The weapon's Trinity Smash combo is notable as its final hit has a long delay, yet the outcome is worth it if executed perfectly, especially in Devil Trigger state. Demon Evade boosts the damage of your next attacks, but as a prerequisite, the dodge has to be timed well enough against the enemy's attack. It can also be combined with the aforementioned Trinity Smash combo, earning you lots of Style points/rank in a short time. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: In Mission 3, Vergil details the entire history of Sparda, who turned on Mundus rather than let humanity be enslaved. The betrayal he described plays out once more in the ending, but with Vergil in the place of Mundus and Dante in the place of Sparda. Bonus points for this version of Sparda being Mundus' blood-brother, at least according to Vergil's understanding. In Mission 9, Dante says he's only fighting for this cause to kill Mundus, outcome be damned. Phineas answers him with a question: "And if you do kill Mundus... Who will take his place?" That question is answered in the finale and by then Dante's a little more vested in the implications. | |

Competitive Balance | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_9f4a47f2 | comment |
Competitive Balance: In melee, the Demon weapons Arbiter and Eryx are both slow, heavy and used to dish out tons of damage, good for breaking blocks and defences but less useful against very mobile foes. The Angel weapons Osiris and Aquila are relatively weak, but their attacks cover a wide radius and hit faster - in the case of Aquila, much faster - making them well-suited to aerial combos. Rebellion is somewhere in the middle in terms of damage and close to Osiris in terms of speed. With firearms, Dante's dual pistols Ebony and Ivory are quick-firing and accurate with large clips, but weak. The Shotgun is slower, with a short range, but it's more damaging and can take out multiple foes at once (making it good for crowds of weak enemies). The rocket launcher Kablooey is even slower, with a tiny clip and a lengthy reload, but causes very powerful explosions. It must also be used with care, since ill-considered fire can knock down and damage Dante himself. | |

A less emphasized one is regarding Eva.

Thus, the Eva of this game retains the red color motif of her classic counterpart, by way of her blood red hair. | |

No-Sell: In the original release, Angel- or Demon-infused enemies outright ignored weapons and abilities of the opposite alignment. Combined with taking less damage from Rebellion and gunfire, they were a royal pain to take down. The Updated Re-release changes these enemies to simply have the same damage reduction to the opposite alignment, and not flinching from such attacks unless they've been staggered or knocked up by their weak element first. | |

Tennis Boss: Dante can parry Mundus' meteors and Vergil's Summoned Swords. Just time your attack (which works in both versions of the game), or make sure that Prop/Shredder's attack frames are active (which unfortunately no longer works in the Definitive Edition). In an inverted case, the player can throw their Arbiter's axe head at enemies, and some late-game enemies or Boss in Mook Clothing will hit it back if their defenses are up. If the player manages to time it right, they can then stun the enemy by hitting it back, turning this into one of the shortest applications of this trope. | |

Mirror World: Most areas you move through in the "normal" Limbo City will transform into warped areas of the same environments in the "demonic" Limbo. At least once, the environment itself will be flipped 180 degrees, memorably in the approach to Bob Barbas' lair; the symbolism used for the transition depicts Dante moving to the other world through the mirror image reflected by the huge body of water. | |

New Powers as the Plot Demands | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_c26e2b1 | comment |
New Powers as the Plot Demands: At the end of the hostage exchange sequence, Mundus uses his powers to cause a massive chaotic dimensional shift in an attempt to kill the heroes. While Vergil and Kat attempt to escape by car, an earthquake causes them to be thrown into peril. Luckily, Dante gains the power to spontaneously shift to-and-fro between dimensions while those in the car suffer from time dilation, allowing him to leap about and rescue them. Tragically, he loses this ability without comment when the scene ends. | |

Harder Than Hard: Borrowed from the mainline games, there's Son of Sparda, Dante Must Die, and the now traditional duo Heaven or Hell - Hell & Hell difficulty levels. The Definitive Edition adds another new difficulty called "Gods Must Die" that goes one step beyond Dante Must Die: enemies will spawn in their Devil Triggered states, you cannot use any items, and no Green Orbs will be spawned (so any health you lose is gone for the entire level). | |

Shout-Out | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Billboards and signs will transform into messages saying things like "consume, submit, obey" when the world shifts into Limbo, in a nod to the cult sci-fi film They Live!. The Order and its leader the Masked Man borrow heavily in terms of both appearance and methodology from V and his allies of the Alan Moore comic book series V for Vendetta. There are several references to Italian Baroque paintings. A scene from Dante's flashback is depicted in the style of◊ Caravaggio's David with the Head of Goliath, Eva's death is posed similarly to The Death of the Virgin, and teenage Dante getting roughed up by police looks a lot like The Taking of Christ (except that Jesus wasn't trying to punch his captors' lights out). The visual effects in the Bob Barbas Boss Battle were specifically based on scenes from the cult Cyberspace films TRON and The Lawnmower Man. The soft drink Virility and the giant slug-like succubus monster that produces it in an underground factory are inspired by Slurm and the Slurm Queen from Futurama. In Mission 13, Lilith starts off "The Devil has Talent", a reality game show sequence based on America's Got Talent and Britain's Got Talent. However, she requires Dante to survive a series of challenges in order to proceed further. During his journey through a demon prison, Dante helps a blind old man who is being tormented by harpies. One of the first things Dante says when he learns the Ophion Demon Pull is "Get over here!" Dante's "Neo Dante" outfit is based in both The Prince Of Persia and the film version of The Crow, if, somewhat more modern/cyberpunk looking. A very unintentional one to Bleach in the Vergil's Downfall DLC. Hollow Vergil, like Hollow Ichigo, tries to convince the real Vergil to discard his heart, and also appears only after Vergil was gravely injured. The whole of Vergil's Downfall was actually meant to be an homage to The Hollow Men by T. S. Eliot. | |

Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: The Final Boss is on the receiving end. Dante decisively wins the fight by running his Rebellion through Vergil's chest and pinning him to the ground, then pushing the sword even further. Vergil is resilient enough to survive, but mostly because of Kat's request for Dante to stop, which the latter follows out of mercy. | |

Impossibly Cool Weapon: DmC reworks Dante's Rebellion sword into a weapon with multiple forms. Its default form is still a sword, but it can turn into a set of shurikens and a scythe (representing his angelic side), a pair of fists and a heavy axe (representing his demonic side), and a Grappling-Hook Pistol (which can be used in both Angel and Demon modes, albeit with differing functions). The game's combat system even allows you to weave Rebellion's attacks seamlessly in tandem with these other weapon forms. | |

What the Hell, Hero?: Dante chews Vergil out for shooting Lilith and her fetus in the middle of exchanging her for Kat, while Kat's still in the crossfire and again when he announces his plan for them to rule over the weak, subservient human race, right in front of Kat. Mundus also calls Dante out for the above incident, never mind that he killed Sparda's wife and has been trying to kill his children ever since. Dante, despite having plenty of ground to claim innocence or point out Mundus's hypocrisy, instead taunts him about it - though his specific motivation was to make Mundus angry, not defeat him verbally. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Enemies will be less aggressive when out of sight, keeping you from getting blindsided too often. Still better keep your fingers on the dodge button, though. Angel-element enemies never have shields, since every reliable method that can break shields is Demon-infused. This is changed in the Definitive Edition due to difficulty and gameplay rebalance. Angel-element shield enemies do exist, but shields are usually easier to break compared to Demon-element shield. Unless playing on a harder difficulty. Just like the Proud Souls skill system in DMC4, you can refund any purchased upgrade if you want to re-assign the Skill point somewhere else. There are achievements for getting SSS Ranks in missions or in an entire difficulty mode. Fortunately, the Difficulty Mode and Mission Select menus already display every completed mission's ranking as a vertical list, thus saving time from navigating menus whenever you want to check and replay missions that still have low ranks. It's an improvement over the first four DMC games where there are separate screens/menus for replaying missions and for viewing a list of your missions' rankings. Secret Missions can be accessed directly from the Main Menu after you discover them from the Sealed Doors, allowing you to replay them at your own leisure without having to replay the actual level where they are found. The Mission Select menu and the pause menu have HUD elements showing how much you've obtained from the total number of unlockables within the mission, such as Lost Souls, Cross Fragments, Keys and Sealed Doors. This helps in tracking down any Last Lousy Point. | |

Although the close friendship that develops between them never becomes explicitly romantic, they share several moments that can be perceived as romantic (and are by some fans). It would, however, be in poor taste to give Kat a romantic arc with a guy she's just met, in light of the revelation that she was abused. The Definitive Edition of the game's ending though does give them a more explicitly romantic final scene (or at least a more Ship Tease-heavy) where the two walk off in each other's arms, with Dante moving to squeeze her butt and her playfully giggling while punching him in the dick; though not completely out of the realm of something close friends would do, its very much more akin to something a couple would do. | |

Freudian Trio | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_e8cae797 | comment |
Freudian Trio: Dante (Id), Vergil (Superego), and Kat (Ego). Dante is the hot-headed Id, motivated mostly by strong, basic emotions such as anger and lust, and often doesn't think his actions through. That said, he is compassionate at heart; it's just been scabbed over with aggression. Vergil as the cool, analytical Super-Ego, a planner driven by ambitious end goals he is willing to make fairly cold-hearted sacrifices to achieve. He thinks in the long-term and values control. Kat is the human, mediating Ego, emotional but loyal to Vergil's higher ideals. She not only is between the brothers in temperament but acts as their go-between, and she tempers Dante's seething distrust and rage into a more sympathetic sense of righteousness. Unfortunately, she is revealed to have little influence on Vergil, which leads to the trio's split when he dismisses her as a mere human in announcing his plan to rule over them. | |

Achievement System | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_eabd22f9 | comment |
There are achievements for getting SSS Ranks in missions or in an entire difficulty mode. Fortunately, the Difficulty Mode and Mission Select menus already display every completed mission's ranking as a vertical list, thus saving time from navigating menus whenever you want to check and replay missions that still have low ranks. It's an improvement over the first four DMC games where there are separate screens/menus for replaying missions and for viewing a list of your missions' rankings. | |

Kill Streak: Per series tradition, the Stylish Rank system rewards you more Stylish Points for killing multiple enemies without taking any damage at all in between your kills. However, the need for kill streaks is encouraged, acknowledged, or enforced in other scenarios. For example, being the only game in the series which displays in-game feats in real-time, DmC actively points out any kill streaks you've made by showing the phrases "Double Kill!", "Triple Kill!", or "Flawless Kill Streak!" on-screen. | |

I Call It "Vera": Dante's guns Ebony and Ivory. He also calls them "girls" and occasionally greets or praises them fondly. To tease the point, the strippers Dante brought home and who'd disappeared before he woke had a similar theme going - and Dante reclaims his guns near women's underwear which evidently landed there at the same time. | |

Sequence Breaking | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_fb111d49 | comment |
Sequence Breaking: The premise of Mission 3 requires Dante to obtain the Angel Dash ability to cross the chasm which separates him from Kat and the only exit of that level. But once you have already unlocked that ability from your previous playthroughs, you can simply Angel Dash your way towards the exit after the first battle, allowing you to end the level in a span of a few minutes. The level design often incorporates enemy encounters in freely-open areas that also involve some platforming. You're expected to deal with all enemies first before you can properly traverse the environment to reach your objective. However, speedrunners exploit the Ophion Demon Pull and Enemy Step abilities to turn the enemies into makeshift floating platforms, allowing them to reach the objective before the enemy encounters could even end. | |

Brick Joke | |
| DmC: Devil May Cry (Video Game) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: In the first mission, a white wig lands on Dante's head and he shrugs it off in annoyance. It made Dante look almost identical to the original incarnation of the character, but it turns out that Dante's hair temporarily becomes white when he unlocks his Devil Trigger; it's an indication of overwhelming power. By the end of the game, not only has Dante developed into a more heroic character, his control over his supernatural abilities has turned his hair completely and permanently white. The original Dante's iconic look is, in effect, a badge of honour that this Dante had to earn, and that he was originally not mature enough to appreciate any semblance of it back then. | |

Cutscene Power to the Max: The initial cutscenes of Mission 18 turn the abilities of the playable characters up to eleven - Dante's Devil Trigger completely freezes Mundus (but in the actual gameplay, all bosses are immune to this).
