Official Nintendo description

It’s been a while, like a long, long while, since the original Devil May Cry launched one of Capcom’s most popular modern series’. That game dawned on the PS2 way back in 2001.

This year’s DMC V was the pinnacle of what’s been an awesome series of action games, though it’s still tough to beat the pure fun of the original. That’s just what we’ve got here, with the initial appearance of the series on the Nintendo Switch.

Available today, Devil May Cry on the Switch looks to carry over everything from the PS2 original. So now a fresh generation of gamers can experience where the devil hunt began, and of course take it on the go.
