Netflix Unveils Devil May Cry Anime Opening Trailer, Hints at Multi-Season Arc

Following the announcement of its premiere date, Netflix dropped the opening trailer for its upcoming Devil May Cry anime adaptation. The trailer, set to Limp Bizkit's iconic "Rollin'," showcases dynamic action sequences featuring a young Dante, Lady, and the enigmatic White Rabbit, peppered with nods to the game franchise.

Showrunner Adi Shankar elaborated on his vision for the series. He explained that the anime's late 90s/early 2000s setting is perfectly complemented by its soundtrack, which will feature tracks from that era alongside a synthwave remix of the game's soundtrack by Power Glove, in addition to Limp Bizkit.

Shankar further hinted at a multi-season plan, stating that subsequent seasons will boast distinct visual styles and soundtracks to reflect the diverse nature of the Devil May Cry games.

Plot specifics remain under wraps, but the first season is anticipated to adapt elements from the Devil May Cry 3 manga, Code 1: Dante. This arc centers on a young Dante investigating a child's disappearance, forcing him to confront his father Sparda's demonic legacy and his own past.

The eight-episode first season is slated to premiere on April 3, 2025.
