Really liking how with the additional modes Cerberus has basically just become '70s Hong Kong Kung fu movies weapon. It's like Bruce Lee with Eight Diagram Pole Fighter & 36 Chamers.

It'd be nice to see an even crazier versions of stuff like Pandora and Lucifer came back, or at least something similar too Lucifer.

That R K channel had a couple more weapon videos, along with some other stuff from that NY Comic-Con panel.

A better quality version of Dante's moves and weapons shown at Comic Con.



Hope Agni/Rudra and Pandora are also playable weapons.

EDIT:

Here's the full video, which contains more explanation of the game's features and other miscellaneous stuff:



Apparently there will be a Photo Mode (they show it at the 7 minute mark).

Cerberus and it's different modes:






Bike:




Buster arm (behaves like the DMC4 arm):

Another arm:




They also seem to have resigned Dante's face:

Shitlibs have another franchise in their hands to stain. It's not so bad because we'll have the brand-new game to play.

Castlevania only has the Netflix SJW fanfiction. Fuck you Konami.

Is it my impression or has Nero's revolver been buffed?


This dude is a demi-god:



This is a pretty neat trick:




Was playing some DMC4 last week and finally learned how fun Lucifer can be. It's a pretty original weapon, hope they put it in DMC5.

If you notice in that first video his Overture Devil Breaker is equipped and breaks every time he does that big shot. It's his Overture break move.





Devil Breaker: Overture Exploder Overload to energy. It is an enemy that is exploded after a set amount of time. Multiple units can be placed at once. Follow up with a bullet or other attacks to detonate it manually.​

Urizen revealed. V gameplay reveal, very much like Arius from DMC2. More Dante & Nero gameplay.

Bloody palace comes in April as a free update.

Demo comes first on xbox one tomorrow.

Great trailer overall.

Kylo Ren's playstyle of slowly walking around and summoning pokemon to kill everything on the screen doesn't look very fitting for Devil May Cry gameplay, but we'll see. Otherwise looks good.

http://www.capcom-unity.com/devil_may_cry/blog/2018/12/06/the-game-awards-extended-devil-may-cry-5-trailer-featuring-v-cameo-system-and-more

It’s showtime! The Game Awards 2018 just debuted a brand new Devil May Cry 5 trailer, with lots of stylish new combos, the first ever gameplay showing of the mysterious V, a new recording of Dante’s theme song, and hints of the overarching story of the game. We’re here to break down some of the key elements… but with an extended cut! Check it out:




Dante’s new take on the classic Cerberus devil arm gets more screen time along with new takedowns from Nero’s Buster Arm Devil Breaker, but the real star of the show today is our third, and final playable character, V.

90d3e8e41700a703323bc51278cc6744.jpg


V brings to the table an entirely new play style to the Devil May Cry series, using the most unlikely of weapons: a cane. At first this seems to pale in comparison to Dante’s and Nero’s arsenals, but that’s where V’s three unique demons come in: the thunderbird Griffon, the swift panther Shadow, and the towering Nightmare. And the best part is each demon is controlled independently, which lends itself to sick and over-the-top combos. I can’t wait to see the craziest of combos when you get hands-on time with V.

Speaking of seeing others in action, you may have noticed a couple of scenes in the trailer where Nero, Dante and V fight demons alongside each other. That is our brand-new cameo system, made specifically to complement Devil May Cry 5’s single player gameplay. Here’s how it works:

bba4a55766c249476d2b6e39a6692239.jpg


The game is primarily a single player experience, but director Itsuno-san and the team really wanted to tell an epic story with three distinct perspectives and play-styles, where the main protagonists run into each other and collaborate from time to time. So to make that a reality, they’ve implemented a system where, while connected to the Internet, players will make guest cameo appearances in each other’s games in real time, or through ghost data gameplay recordings. Depending on the mission, you’ll see another player in the background, but in other cases, you’ll actually be slicing and dicing demons side-by-side with another players!

Again, our focus is in providing a single player experience like no other, so this cameo system also ensures the experience is always smooth as possible with no downtime.

6fa6f0a369b770afdf78f63ff1656f71.jpg


As you conclude each mission with a cameo appearance, you’re given the option to rate the other players “Stylish” if they put on a good show. Just make sure you’re on top of your game too, as a “Stylish” rating can come with useful rewards.

Just be mindful that some missions will be strictly single player, especially as characters split up to explore different areas, so if the story doesn’t have any characters crossing paths, the gameplay experience will reflect that. And if you only play “offline,” you’ll actually be seeing ghost data gameplay recordings of the development team instead of other players’.

Now for the last two bits of stinger news at the end of that trailer… Spoiler ahead if you haven’t seen the video yet!

That’s right: Bloody Palace is making a return! The development team is still ironing out the details and balance adjustments, so we’re expecting to deploy this as a free update in April 2019, shortly after the game’s release. Stay tuned for more details around launch (March 8, 2019).

And finally, we have just announced our first Devil May Cry 5 demo, available as of December 7, exclusively on Xbox One! This will be similar to our events demo, where you play as young demon hunter Nero with his trusty Red Queen sword and Blue Rose hand cannon as well as Overture and Gerbera Devil Breakers. You’ll be able to play through nearly an entire mission, with the epic fight against Goliath waiting for you at the end. This demo will be available for download from December 7, 2018 until January 6, 2019.

Here's the theme song for Kylo "V" Ren.

I quite like it. Seems to fit him well. It seems like they also changed the vocals for Dante's theme. It's still pretty crappy but at least the vocals don't sound like teenage angst.

After seeing the trailer, I think that overall...

I am gonna pre-order this shit on X-Mas.

I had heard rumors that there would be a co-op mode because the steam info site had 3 player multiplayer registered. Never though it would be something this unconventional. They could put a co-op option on Bloody Palace, and maybe a Versus mode. We'll see.

The V character premise seems bad. The player summons an AI to do the fighting and only has 1 weapon do combos...
But on the other hand Itsuno seems very confident in his. And considering he's one of the best action game designers, I think I'll just hold this matter until I can my hands on the game.
There have been some fan theories suggesting this character is related to Mundus.

Now this news, I think it's same to assume each character will have it's own campaign. Which, now that I've completed DMC4, was that game's downfall despite the improvements to the combat.
Hope they'll include some campaign for Vergil and Trish/Lady even if it's as DLC. They could even add Lucia from DMC2 as well (since this a sequel anyway), that way we would end up with 7 characters with completely distinct playstyles and campgains.
Finishing up the series with a loud bang.

By the found this leak awhile back.



Trish looks way less shitty here, did they redesigned her? Lady has a pretty manly jawline though...

Also, will the demo be released to PC or PS4?

It's a real info or are you assuming this? Couldn't it be like with Zato-01 in Guilty Gear or Chaos in Under Night In-Birth, where you control the moves of your pet?
