DEVIL MAY CRY V Producer Confirms – The Acclaimed Slasher Won’t Get Any New DLC

There's no denying that the Hideaki Itsuno-directed Devil May Cry V is not only a critically acclaimed video game (currently sitting at an amazing 88% score on Metacritic), but also a best-selling one – as it has already managed to ship well over 2 million copies worldwide since its major March debut.

While you can download the free Bloody Palace DLC right now, pitting you against hordes of increasingly difficult enemies and bosses whilst racing against the ticking timer, it looks like it was the first and also last Devil May Cry V expansion. Asked by a fan on Twitter, Producer Matt Walker officially revealed that "[development] on DMCV is finished. I'd personally like to see the ladies playable too. We can only hope that at some point we can convince the people up top that it's worth doing."

Although Devil May Cry V won't get any new major DLCs, fans of the long-running slasher series have no reasons to despair, as the fifth numbered entry in the main Devil May Cry cycle is not only an excellent position, but also its fantastic sales results suggest strongly that it will be one of the most important franchises for Capcom going forward, next to their own Resident Evil and Monster Hunter.

Unfortunately dev on DMC5 is finished. I'd personally like to see the ladies playable too. We can only hope that at some point we can convince the people up top that it's worth doing.
