DmC: Devil May Cry is a 2013 action-adventure game developed by Ninja Theory and published by Capcom. The story takes place in a separate continuity from previous Devil May Cry games. The game's story takes place in Limbo City, a modern-day city secretly controlled by all-powerful demons, manipulating humanity through the comforts of life. It follows Dante, a young demon hunter whose twin brother Vergil recruits him to help defeat the demon king Mundus. The hack-and-slash gameplay is similar to previous Devil May Cry games; as Dante, the player uses a variety of melee weapons and firearms to defeat enemies. The game introduces modifiers to Dante's moveset, known as Angel Mode and Devil Mode, which aid in both combat and traversal.
