IGN reported that the ADV Films acquired the license to bring the ongoing Anime series to DVD. The Anime series is based on the Capcom mega-franchise of the same name, and is being produced by Madhouse, the same studio responsible for the hits Ninja Scroll and Death Note. The series is packed with action and all the elements that made the game popular.

“His name is Dante. Half demon and half human, he is charged with ridding the world of the demons that plague it…for the right price. The doors to his business, Devil May Cry, are always open to those with money in pocket, and occasionally to some without. Dante is approached by a man named Morrison to deliver a young heiress Patty to her inheritance. He thinks it’s a job not worthy of his time – that is, until a group of demons intent on killing Patty crash the party. With guns drawn and sword ready by his side, Dante will have to mow down the opposition to delivery the mark and discover just who is behind the series of attacks. It’s only the beginning for this iconic character, as familiar faces and foes test their metal against the crew of the Devil May Cry.”

Unfortunately, no date has been set for the release at this moment since the series is still in production. Currently, Japan has only seen the first three episodes aired.
