Devil May Cry 5 Seemingly Coming to Nintendo Switch 2, Getting New Devil Hunter Edition
Capcom's critically acclaimed action title Devil May Cry 5 appears to be headed to Nintendo's upcoming Switch 2 console, according to recent leaks that have surfaced online. The game, which originally launched in 2019 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, will reportedly arrive on the new Nintendo hardware in a special Devil Hunter Edition. This would mark the first time the fifth mainline entry in the beloved hack-and-slash franchise has been available on a Nintendo platform.
The leaked information suggests that the Devil Hunter Edition will include additional content and features tailored for the Switch 2, though the full details of what the package will contain have not yet been officially confirmed. It is widely expected that the edition will at minimum include the content from the Special Edition, which added playable Vergil and other enhancements when it launched alongside the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X in 2020. Fans are speculating that the Devil Hunter Edition branding may signal even more exclusive bonuses to entice buyers.
Devil May Cry 5 was a massive success for Capcom, earning praise from critics and fans alike for its tight combat mechanics, stunning visuals, and faithful continuation of the series' story. The game follows three playable characters — Dante, Nero, and the mysterious V — as they battle to stop a demonic invasion. Its arrival on the Switch 2 would serve as a strong signal of third-party support for Nintendo's next-generation console and demonstrate the hardware's capability to run modern, graphically demanding titles.
Neither Capcom nor Nintendo has officially commented on the leak at this time. The Switch 2 itself has been the subject of intense anticipation, with fans eagerly awaiting full details about the console's specifications and launch lineup. If confirmed, Devil May Cry 5 would join a growing list of major third-party titles rumored to be making their way to the platform, further building excitement for what is shaping up to be a robust catalog of games at or near launch.
