Capcom’s "Devil May Cry 4" Goes Multiplatform! Mega-hit Title set for PLAYSTATION® 3, Xbox 360™ and PC!

　Capcom Co., Ltd., a world-wide leader in the gaming industry, is proud to announce the development of "Devil May Cry 4" for the PLAYSTATION®3, Xbox 360™ and PC platforms.

　"Devil May Cry" is a series of popular, stylish action games, with a cast of unforgettable characters. Since the release of the original "Devil May Cry" in 2001, the series has shipped 6,800,000 copies as of December 31st, 2006, proudly making it one of Capcom's flagship titles. The series appeal is not limited to games; an animated TV series to be broadcast on Japan's WOWOW network is slated to air Spring 2007. The latest iteration, "Devil May Cry 4" will take advantage of each platform's hardware strengths to achieve the most stunning visuals in the series to date, and the introduction of a mysterious new protagonist will keep the action fast and fresh. Even before its release, "Devil May Cry 4" has been met with tremendous anticipation, as fans patiently endured long lines at TOKYO GAME SHOW 2006 for the chance to play the demo. "Devil May Cry 4" will be released simultaneously for the PLAYSTATION®3 and Xbox 360™ platforms.

　Capcom was among the first software developers in the world to make games for the next-generation consoles, and those efforts have been met with great success. In addition, Capcom's use of an integrated development environment is one of the many methods being employed to improve efficiency and help take advantage of the cutting-edge functionality in next-generation systems.

　Capcom will continue to produce titles that appeal to users while pursuing a multiplatform strategy to help enhance profits.

360 is unsurprising, but the PC? That's the shocker

 

[tanasten]

No Wii?

Poor PS3. This is semi-definitive. Now, they should be asking GOD to keep Final Fantasy on the system, or PS3 is beaten.

Holy Shit and GAF goes crash.....

 

[BamYouHaveAids]

DMC has always been a subpar series Ninja Gaiden Sigma is where it's at

Are you kidding me? Capcom whores out it's franchises like nobody's business. Remember the "Resident evil is exclusive to gamecube!" business last round?

On the other hand, Final Fantasy (other than the MMORPG) has never, ever been multiplatform, and SE rarely makes ports of current franchises. FFXIII is staying right where it is.

 

[Junpei Heat]

Who plays DMC on the PC? Wouldn't that be pretty hard?

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

hahahahahaha

 

[AdmiralViscen]

lmao, it was ten minute ago in that first party confidence thread that someone was listing this as a PS3 "first party" exclusive.

lololol

There are a lot of people who have to eat some crow (but will instead claim that this was always obvious).

 

[Cormacaroni]

Release date is not given, but it says simultaneous release for PS3 and 360 versions.

 

[Karma Kramer]

:lol

OMG game over

 

[Danne-Danger]

"DMC4 100% exclusive, never going anywhere else confirmed" - Shane :lol

 

[abacab driver]

Shane got some 'splaining to do.

 

[kevm3]

PS3 better give all the money they can to Square and Konami. Justifying a 600 dollar price tag for the PS3 is becoming harder and harder by the day. Does Sony even care that they are losing exclusives left and right or is blu ray too important? Sony needs to realize that they have to sell ps3 on games and if they do that, blu ray will win by association.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Automatically amazing.

 

[Kabuki Waq]

timed exclusive or same day release?
