What is Devil May Cry Based On?
The series is adapted from Capcom’s legendary Devil May Cry video game franchise, created by Hideki Kamiya. First released in 2001, the games have become one of the most beloved action-adventure series of all time.
Known for its fast-paced combat, gothic atmosphere, and iconic protagonist, Devil May Cry follows Dante as he avenges his mother’s death by hunting down demons. Over the years, the franchise has expanded with multiple sequels, a reboot (DmC: Devil May Cry), and even a previous anime adaptation in 2007.
Now, with Netflix and Studio Mir (The Legend of Korra, The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf) leading the charge, fans can expect stunning animation and faithful storytelling that captures the essence of the games.
