The PS5 Showcase primarily focused on some of the newer titles that will be available on the PS5 either at launch, or in 2021. One of the outliers was a trailer for Devil May Cry 5 which released back in March of 2019.
If you were holding your breath for a Special Edition, we have good news… it’s coming and will be available on the PS5 at launch!

If you haven’t played DMC 5 yet, it looks like one that’s worth scooping up for PS5 thanks to a sleek new trailer that aired today, September 16. When the PS5 launches on November 12, you’ll be able to play Devil May Cry 5 on it.
Not just that... you can play the Special Edition version of DMC 5 on the PlayStation 5 at launch.
Looking closer at the trailer, we see Vergil pop in, and the description for the Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition trailer confirms that yes, you'll be able to play as Vergil.
"New features include the addition of Dante's brother and arch-rival, Vergil, as a playable character, as well as Turbo Mode, Legendary Dark Knight, Ray Tracing, and more!"
The news that Vergil will be a playable character is extremely exciting, even for gamers who already played DMC 5 back in 2019. It seems well worth it to dive into the Special Edition once it's released on November 12 on PS5.
Until then, are you stoked there’s a Special Edition for Devil May Cry 5? Are you planning to play it when it comes out later this year? Comment below!
