The creative duo largely responsible for 1999's highly acclaimed survival horror title Resident Evil 2 is reunited for the development of this action-adventure game that is designed to cross over borders of genre and style. Producer Shinji Mikami and director Hideki Kamiya collaborate once again to create Devil May Cry for the PlayStation 2 console.
Billing itself as a "gothic action" title, Devil May Cry uses a newly-designed system of control intended to provide more natural, responsive character movement than is common in many of its survival horror predecessors. Featuring backgrounds rendered in real-time, a wider, more dynamic range of camera angles is possible.
STORY:
Legend has it that 2000 years ago in the depths of hell, a demon rebelled against the devil, waging a one-man war in support of the human world.
In the present, Dante, a private investigator of the supernatural, realises that the devil is rallying to rise again against mankind. Deep within Dante's blood lies the power of ancient demons and as his power builds he transforms into a demon state where he can use his power against evil he encounters.
Commencing his battle against the demonic legions with just a sword and his twin pistols, Ebony and Ivory, Dante will soon come across more powerful weapons, such as a shotgun to aid him in his mission. However, to defeat the devil Dante must also discover special weapons possessing various elemental powers. When channelled correctly these weapons will allow Dante to call upon demonic energy and launch powerful attacks against a range of enemies.
Features:
* Guide Dante through 23 missions filled with horrific enemies and boss characters
* Collect colored orbs from fallen enemies to replenish life, increase magic, purchase items, and more
* Acquire an assortment of weapons, from swords and gauntlets to needle guns and grenade launchers
