Dante will make his return this month on Xbox 360 and PS3 (15 January), and is looking to silence sceptical fans by bringing back the over-the-top gunplay and sword slashing, along with a brand new attitude. If you’re looking to pre-order Capcom’s demon-slaying reimagining, there are a few choices to consider.
The reboot – simply dubbed DmC – is looking to find the balance between a hardcore hack-’n-slash, while also providing enough fluidity and access for newcomers to the franchise.
Dante’s symbolic weaponry returns – along with new angel and demon swords, which are activated with the left and right triggers respectively, and by mixing those Angel and Demon weapons you’ll find the depth in the combo system.
Following is a table of retailers and prices for pre-ordering DmC.
