Devil May Cry 4 first PS3 screenshots and details

Devil May Cry 4 screenshot
Dante isn’t the main character in Devil May Cry 4. Taking over is Nero (who is not Dante’s brother Vergil).

Capcom told Famitsu magazine that Nero will have many new combat skills that are different from Dante’s. Instead of a devil trigger, he has a devil bringer skill in his arm. The series director, Hideaki Itsuno, said that one thing he felt was that as great as Devil May Cry 3’s combat-chaining system was, the combo’s ended when the enemies died, so the arm can act as a grapple to continually rearrange enemies (see picture above) so that you can continually build up your combo’s.

You can check out more/bigger pictures at the Japanese Devil May Cry 4 website that just launched.

Storyline: Nero is the leader of a group that wants to resseruct Sparda. However, Dante (in this game seen as an enemy) intrudes upon your base and starts killing your generals. As the main character you have to stop him, but Nero does not recognize Dante.
