Press Release
Vergil
Vergil
is Dante’s twin brother. While Dante was put into an orphanage run
by demons and ended up a street kid, Vergil was adopted into a rich,
educated and very privileged home. A highly intelligent and gifted
individual, he wrote a security encryption program that eventually
made him a multi-millionaire before he even finished school.
Vergil
hates the demons for having killed his mother and enslaved his father
and uses his riches in the single minded pursuit to bring them down.
Calculating and dispassionate, Vergil’s decisions are always
logical, strategic and never emotional. He formed the underground
organisation known as The Order to research the demons with the goal
of toppling their hold over humanity.
GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW
In
this retelling of Dante's origin story which is set against a
contemporary backdrop, DmC Devil May Cry™ retains the stylish
action, fluid combat and self-assured protagonist that have defined
the iconic series but inject a more brutal and visceral edge.
The
Dante of DmC is a young man who has no respect for authority or
indeed society in general. Dante knows that he is not human, but also
that he is not like the demons that have tormented him throughout his
life. Caught between worlds, he feels like an outcast.
Thanks
to his twin brother Vergil, leader of the anti-establishment group
called “The Order”, Dante is now discovering and coming to terms
with what it means to be the child of a demon and an angel. This
split personality has a real impact on gameplay with Dante being able
to call upon angel and demon abilities at will, transforming his
Rebellion sword on the fly to dramatically affect both combat and
movement.
For
DmC Capcom has teamed up with UK development studio, Ninja Theory,
renown for delivering action titles with compelling characters and
narrative coupled with high production values. The combination of
Ninja Theory’s expertise and Capcom’s unrivalled heritage in
producing combat focused action titles will ensure that this latest
addition to the over 11-million selling series will remain true to
the Devil May Cry DNA so cherished by the fans, while bringing a new
level of cinematic quality to the title.
