The closest players ever got to taking control of him was through V, by virtue of the Kylo Ren look-alike being a manifestation of his human side. Finally, the trailer ends with the reveal that Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition will be available to download on the PS5's launch date, which was later announced to be on November 12 th in North America and November 19 th for the rest of the world.Īlthough Vergil served as the main antagonist in Devil May Cry 5, he remained a non-playable character in the standard edition despite fans demanding that he be made playable in future DLC. There are shots of fellow demon hunters Dante and Nero (Vergil’s estranged son) in battle as well, with all of the impressive and flashy visuals being rendered in higher detail thanks to the PS5’s updated technology.

As he battles, Vergil can also impale himself with his trusty katana, the legendary Yamato, to transform into V, his human alter-ego. From there, the trailer switches to gameplay footage as Vergil unleashes his awesome demonic power and rapid sword skills on hordes of enemies. In a dramatic voiceover monologue, the half-human/half-demon warrior wonders what things would have been like had he lived Dante’s life. The Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition trailer shown during today’s PlayStation 5 stream largely focuses on Vergil, Dante’s twin brother and a new playable character for the updated port.
