Capcom has revealed Devil May Cry HD Collection and its release date. The HD bundle will release both physically and digitally across PC, PS4 and Xbox One on March 13th, 2018. The company announced the HD Collection will run for $29.99.
Capcom had posted not too long ago on capcom-unity.com that Devil May Cry HD Collection, which first released for PS3 and Xbox 360 in April 2012, will include (the 2001) Devil May Cry, (the 2003) Devil May Cry 2, and (the 2006) Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition games.
As of course, this news sparked a lot of speculation as to whether Capcom will confirm floating rumors of Devil May Cry 5, but while we wait on that to manifest, the company provided an overview of all three HD games.
Devil May Cry — 2001:
“This is the one that started it all, starring a mature and subdued Dante, which matched the mood and tempo of the game’s sense of isolation during the exploration sequences and tough-as-nails boss battles.”
Devil May Cry 2 — 2003:
“Taking place after the events of the first Devil May Cry, this sequel strives for a more cinematic look and feel to combat, changing things up in how the camera behaves, but also taking extreme care to make the animations more natural and fluid. Plus, you can unlock and play as Trish, featuring her own unique weapons and move set.”
Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition — 2006:
“Focusing on the origins of our favorite demon hunter, this prequel features a much younger and more rambunctious Dante who cares very little about how much damage he’s doing to even his own shop as long as he can chew his pizza and kick some butt. And he runs out of pizza.”
If you’ve never played any of the Devil May Cry games in the past and always wanted to, you’ll be able to in early 2018. The only thing is that you won’t be able to play the fourth title given that it’s not available in the HD bundle, but if you want to know what the first, second and third DMC is all about on PC and the latest home consoles you’ll be able to do so.
