For the uninitiated, Devil May Cry 3 serves as a prequel for the iconic action series, unfolding years before the original game with a younger version of Dante. This origin story explores the journey leading up to and culminating in Dante’s face-off against his twin brother, Vergil, who is set on unlocking a gate to the demonic realm.

The game introduced the “style” based combat system for the first time with six selectable options, each with their own range of features. Players can power up their favorite style for increased special attack abilities, bringing an extra level of strategy to the action. Devil May Cry 3 also introduced the ability to switch between currently equipped weapons on the fly for additional combat freedom.

In addition to the main campaign mode, players can also take on the 9,999 floors of the Bloody Palace survival mode as Vergil.
