Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition Rated for Nintendo Switch 2: Capcom’s Acclaimed Action Game Poised for Next-Gen Nintendo Platform

A new development in the world of action games has surfaced, as Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition has been officially rated for the Nintendo Switch 2 by the Taiwan Digital Game Rating Committee.

The listing signals that Capcom’s critically acclaimed hack-and-slash title, originally released in 2019, may soon find its way onto Nintendo's anticipated next-generation console.

Devil May Cry 5, developed and published by Capcom, has been a prominent entry in the long-running Devil May Cry series.

First made available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, the game garnered widespread acclaim for its fast-paced combat, striking visuals powered by the RE Engine, and adrenaline-charged narrative featuring series icons Dante and Nero.

With over 6 million copies sold across platforms as of 2022, Devil May Cry 5 established itself as one of Capcom’s modern success stories.

The newly rated Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition is expected to be a comprehensive package, likely bundling previous downloadable content and enhancements provided in the Special Edition.

While Capcom has yet to formally announce this edition for the Nintendo Switch 2, the appearance of an official rating is a strong indicator that fans can anticipate reliving the stylish action on Nintendo’s newest hardware.

A statement accompanying the Taiwanese listing, translated by industry watchdogs, describes the title as featuring all of the high-octane gameplay and additional content that made the original release a standout.

This move would also signify Capcom’s continued support for Nintendo players, following successful prior ports such as Resident Evil and Monster Hunter titles to the Switch family.

Nintendo Switch 2, the rumored successor to the Switch, is generating significant anticipation within the industry, with fans eager to see top third-party releases support the platform from launch.

While no release date has been provided for either the hardware or the new edition of Devil May Cry 5, an official announcement from Capcom is now highly anticipated.

For now, Devil May Cry fans and Nintendo enthusiasts alike will be watching for upcoming Nintendo Direct presentations and announcements on the eShop, as Capcom continues to expand its footprint on Nintendo consoles.

Stay tuned for further updates as more information becomes available regarding the arrival of Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition on Nintendo Switch 2.
