Nero returns and has been
kitted out with a nifty robot
arm by mechanic pal Nico. He’s
still got his trusty Red Queen sword
and Blue Rose revolver, too.3
Trish was playable in the fourth
game’s special edition, slicing
through demons. We’d love to
see her return to playable form for
DMC5 and pull her Devil Trigger.2
Dante, however, is far from
armless, with new gauntlets
and greaves (named Balrog)
allowing him to take Red Grave’s
demon problem into his own hands.4
Lady returns alongside Trish
and was also playable in
DMC4’s special edition. We’re
hoping she’ll bring similar heavy
artillery support to five.Better the devil you know
A quick reintroduction to returning cast membersNew protagonist V likes
poetry and apparently
dislikes Dante, claiming
he wishes he’d never
existed. Charming!Left By far the largest
familiar, Nightmare has
V’s back in tougher fights,
especially against the
enormous Goliath boss.Above From what we’ve
seen, V is less hands-on
than Dante or Nero, though
he’s every bit as deadly.
