Devil May Cry 5 Director Talks Story Details
Devil May Cry 5 director, Hideaki Itsuno, has shared extra details on the game's story, and says there's more to showcase at this year's Gamescom.
In a new video for Inside Xbox (below), Itsuno explains that the title is a direct sequel to Devil May Cry 4, and is set a few years after the events of the game. Nero is now running a mobile demon hunting agency out of his van, and has been gifted the neon Devil May Cry sign from Dante.
His weaponised robotic arm is called the Devil Breaker, and has a number of uses that fans might be able to pick up by watching the trailer closely. Itsuno says there will be more on that at Gamescom, and that there will be a playable demo at the German expo.

What Would a God of War That Explores West African or Aztec Mythologies Be Like?
With 2018’s God Of War, Kratos and his son Atreus have stepped out of the shadow of Mount Olympus, and into the wilds of Midgard. They’ve been exploring the fabled worlds of Norse mythology, fighting drooling Nordic beasties and making sense of ancient stories about gods and monsters. See why Jonathon Dornbush called it a ‘Masterpiece’ in IGN's God of War review here.
However, taking Kratos from the Mediterranean to Germanic regions is more than a matter of swapping wine for mead and chains for an axe. It’s a fundamental tonal shift that tells us far more about the world of God of War than it does about Kratos himself.
Game of Thrones Stars Kit Harington and Rose Leslie Just Got Married
Rose Leslie and Kit Harrington, also known as Game of Thrones' Ygritte and Jon Snow, have just been married at the Kirkton of Rayne church in Aberdeenshire, Scotland this past Saturday.
Leslie and Harrington began dating in 2012 on the set of Game of Thrones, while their characters had also formed a relationship in the show's second season. The couple announced that they were engaged to be married.
The ceremony was attended by many of their fellow cast members from Game of Thrones, including Emilia Clarke, Peter Dinklage, Maisie Williams, and Sophie Turner. The ceremony was followed by a reception at Wardhill Castle.
Rage 2 Looks Like a Great Id Game, But What About Its Open World?
Rage 2 is an Id shooter alright. The furious-bordering-on-ridiculous pace, the bulging, oversized guns, that blood-spattered feedback designed to keep you pushing, pushing, pushing. Even the noise of it feels right. The soundtrack has the industrial pound of Doom 2016, newly augmented with ringing synths, and every gun I try sounds gratifyingly stupid - everything down to the humble pistol sounds like it could core out a beluga whale in a single shot.
My hands-on demo is a 10-minute run-through an abandoned space centre, now overrun by the mohawk-laden Goon Squad faction we got acquainted with in Rage 2’s first trailers. I play it four times. It’s a fetch quest of sorts, except what you’re fetching is an orbiting building that you need to crash into the neon pink-lit desert. The gauntlet to get to your goal is essentially a spiral staircase punctured with kill rooms, a corridor-fight-corridor structure that’ll be familiar to anyone who’s played an Id production.
