Devil May Cry 5 & Resident Evil 2 Receive New Gameplay Trailers at Tokyo Game Show

This week is a relatively big week for gaming as not only is the Tokyo Game Show taking place in Japan but EGX, previously known as Eurogamer Expo, is also taking place in the UK; with both venues promising a host of fresh news and gameplay demos. In the case of CAPCOM they have revealed two brand new gameplay trailers for highly Devil May Cry 5 and Resident Evil 2.

Devil May Cry 5:
Dante teams up with fellow demon hunter Nero and weapons artist Nico to push his investigation and extermination techniques to the limits. In a new trailer released today, see Dante back in action with his trusty sword Rebellion, guns Ebony and Ivory, and an utterly insane motorbike that splits at the handlebars to create twin blade weapons.

Nero and Dante take on the hellish onslaught to get to the root of the mystery behind the blood-sucking demon tree Qlipoth at the city center. Joining them are beloved series heroines and partners Trish and Lady who make a grand return. The full game will feature three playable characters each with their own radically different gameplay style. Play as Nero, Dante, and the newly introduced V, a mysterious new client for the “Devil May Cry” office that speaks in poetic verse.

Resident Evil 2:
Delve deeper into the gripping events taking over Raccoon City, and follow the journey of rookie police officer Leon S. Kennedy and college student Claire Redfield as they begin to uncover what’s behind the terrifying zombie outbreak. As both Leon and Claire embark on their own campaigns independently, their collective experiences piece together a comprehensive story uncovering the malicious motives behind the nightmare engulfing the city, the truth behind the nefarious Umbrella Corporation, and the Birkin family’s role in the tragedy.

The trailer also introduces some of the evil foes and potential allies that players can expect to encounter including the iconic series femme fatale Ada Wong, mysterious Annette Birkin and Chief Officer Brian Irons.

Both Devil May Cry 5 and Resident Evil 2 will be released onto the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC next year.
