This week’s UK Games chart is pretty much the same as it’s been this year, mainly due to a lack of new releases. Newcomer DmC has dropped to fourth place after just one week on top of the chart, and Call of Duty: Black Ops II reclaims the top spot followed by FIFA 13 in second place.
Newcomer DmC: Devil May Cry has entered the UK Games chart in top position this week pushing down FIFA 13 and Call of Duty: Black Ops II to second and third place, respectively. It’s actually Capcom’s first game to go straight to number one since Resident Evil 5. The rest of the chart is pretty static, with Far Cry 3, Need for Speed: Most Wanted and Assassin’s Creed III still in the Top 10.
Capcom have released a new trailer of their upcoming Devil May Cry reboot, DMC: Devil May Cry, which launches on the PS3 in just a few weeks. A demo of the game has been available on the PlayStation Store since November 2012, and can be pre-ordered from the Store too. Check out the CG trailer below.
Despite Devil May Cry not releasing until January 2013, Capcom has announced details of the game’s first DLC pack. Titled Vergil’s Downfall, the DLC pack will lets Dante’s brother Vergil be a playable character in the game. The pack will be available “shortly after launch”.
Capcom has revealed a special edition of Devil May Cry for North America and Europe, titled “Son of Sparda”. The special edition is exclusive to GameStop stores, and includes Dante’s necklace and the Samurai DLC pack (see image below). The special edition will be available for both the PS3 and Xbox 360, with a retail price of £59.99.
Devil May Cry was officially announced for the PlayStation 3 at the Tokyo Game Show by Capcom. The title has been reborn as DmC, and is being co-developed with British-based Heavenly Sword developer Ninja Theory. The game is still shrouded in mystery, with few details relating to the setting, the combat mechanic, the demonic enemies, or a release date.
