It looks like Capcom intends to drip-feed Switch owners each entry in the original Devil May Cry trilogy game by game – with today's Nintendo Direct revealing Dante will return later this month.
As noted below, you'll be able to play the hack and slash shooter Devil May Cry 2 on the go on 19th September, and you can pre-purchase from the Nintendo eShop. This title first debuted on the PlayStation in 2003. We expect the third game in this series will also be released on the Switch in the future.
Are you looking forward to playing the second game in this legendary series on your hybrid Nintendo device? Tell us down below.

An additional 10gb like the first one? With, of course, no physical option again?
Edit: eShop has this game listed as 1.7gb
Why is the first game so big??
It's like having a really bad main but you know that dessert is just around the corner.
No, thank you. I'd rather spend $20 on... almost any other game..
Ain’t this the one nobody liked?
I doubt it would attract me after Bayonetta 1 / 2 & Astral Chain.
Yes let’s waste time on this mess rather than getting 3!
Okay so now I quickly need to finish 1, so I can continue with 2. Where to find the time for all these games???
I hear this is terrible, I really liked the first DMC though, and i think i just played a small amount of the beginning of this.
I didn't hate this game back in the day. Might get around to buying it if there's a sale.
This game isn't horrible. It plays pretty smooth, and you can see a lot of ideas that get further extrapolated on in the 3rd game. The reason people disliked it is that it was a departure from the first, losing the adventure elements (not as big an issue now, as now the first game stands out as the odd duck there) and the story was straight trash.
Capcom has damned God Hand and Viewtiful Joe just sitting there and they chose to port this garbage? At premium price as well no doubt.
I don't expect anything out of Crapcom and they somehow manage to disappoint each and every time.
Yayyyyyyyyyy , not
Meh but good to those who never play it. I'll probably skipped this and just wait for 3, 4 and 5.
Imagine being actually excited for Devil May Cry 2.
Onimusha 2 when? I'll still get this though.
The Worst devil may cry for me at least.
Money grab for sure. Capcom, give us Viewtiful Joe, Marvel vs. Capcom, Darkstalkers etc...not garbage.
Shouldn’t they just skip this and go straight to 3?
If Capcom would release a physical trilogy, I would consider buying it. Until then, DMC 1 and DMC 2 will sit in my wishlist just for the easy discount window shopping. But if they dropped the price somewhere lower than $10, I might get it as well as DMC 1.
The worst game in the series? Thanks Capcom!
I’ll be getting this one too. Absolutely.
Guys, don't waste your time and money with this one, it's the worst game in the franchise by far and didn't amount to anything in the long run since Capcom doesn't mention it (that much) ever again.
Wait for 3 to come out.
I liked this one, wasnt as good as the first, but still have my PS2 version at hand so, no point
one of the most disliked games in the Devil May Cry series
Honestly I'd rather replay the ninja theory DmC game with emo dante
At least that game actually has solidly exciting moment to moment gameplay despite the story ruining the characters greatly
How come this one is so hated?
I remember playing DMC back in the day before I sold my PS2 and never got a chance to play any others but loved the first one (Same reason I love bayonetta).
When I saw the DMC 2 announcement I thought yes, finally a chance to play it.
