Devil May Cry coming to Switch next week

The cheesy description for the first game still fits the franchise today:

Legends tell of a demon swordsman named Sparda, who awoke to justice and rebelled against the devil, waging a one-man support of the human world. Now, 2,000 years later, a dark figure named Dante–private investigator of the supernatural–finds clues that the devil is rallying to rise up again against mankind. By Dante’s demon blood, you enter this dark realm of demonic marionettes, unearthly phantoms, grim reapers, and other retched souls. Transform to a demon state to inflict devastating attacks on enemies in this gothic battle of good against evil.

The action game that launched a whole genre of aerial rave action and witty anti-heroes, Devil May Cry is headed to Nintendo Switch next week. At $19.99 the game will be as previously enhanced in the HD Collection from last year on other platforms. This is only the first game in the series; Capcom has not announced plans for other ports yet.

Pick it up on the e-shop on June 25 in the west and June 27 in Japan.
