Capcom announced that a pop-up event will be hosted in Japan to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Devil May Cry series.
The event is a little late since the anniversary was in August 2021, but it’s going to be held between January 15 and February 28 at the Prime 1 Studio Gallery Shop on the 7th floor of the Shinjuku Marui Annex department store in Tokyo.
It’ll feature the exhibition of high-quality statues by Prime 1 Studio, setting artwork and concept art created from the series, and even the costumes used for the performance capture of Devil May Cry 5.
The exhibition will be opened every day in the period mentioned above between 11:00am and 8:30pm and admission will be free.
Commemorative merchandise will also be available for sale, including keychains and clear files.
Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition is available for Xbox Series X/S and PS5. The original game is available for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
Here’s how Capcom describes the games and the improvements included in the Special Edition.
“The power of next-gen consoles has unlocked new ways to experience the superb stylish action in Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition, with the inclusion of new gameplay modes such as Legendary Dark Knight Mode and Turbo Mode. Each mode offers a new and distinct level of difficulty for those looking to push their skills to the limit.
Fans seeking an added challenge can grapple with the increased enemy count in the perilous Legendary Dark Knight Mode, a new difficulty level which promises to keep even the most seasoned devil hunters on their toes by pitting their skills and style against a Crazy amount of enemies.
Adrenaline junkies can pit their reaction times against the increased speed of Turbo Mode, which ups the gameplay speed by 20 percent to allow for even more rapid fire and fluid combos.
Motivated by the overwhelming fan requests for playable Vergil, Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition adds to the latest installment in the Sons of Sparda saga by allowing players to play through the destruction of the fictitious Red Grave City as Vergil. In addition to the new Vergil mode, players will be able to take Vergil through the perilous floors of the Bloody Palace challenge mode, while wielding his iconic blade the Yamato. “
