Capcomin tällä hetkellä ehkä se odotetuin peli on Devil May Cry 5. Edellinen osa sarjassa oli DMC Devil May Cry, joka ei miellyttänyt kaikkia. Tämän sarjan alusta aloittavan pelin kehitti Ninja Theory.
Peli myi kuitenkin hyvin, ja Capcom on edelleen tyytyväinen niin peliin kuin kehittäjä Ninja Theoryynkin. Tuottaja Hideki Itsunon mukaan Capcom olisi mielellään uudestaankin yhteistyössä Ninja Theoryn kanssa. Se voi kuitenkin olla vaikeaa, koska firma on nykyään Microsoftin omistuksessa.
"We learned so much from Ninja Theory and DMC. That was a collaboration between Capcom and Ninja Theory. I went to Cambridge once every couple of months to work those guys. So we learned a lot of from them, and you want to talk about stylish... Ninja Theory, those guys are style incarnate, man. What they did with DmC, that art style, those animations, that is real style, y'know? So we took a lot of what we learned from that.
Another thing is, we have a lot of friends who love DMC. For me, DMC is one of my favorite DMC games, if not my favorite. And we wanted to make the game in a way that people who enjoyed that game will enjoy the way it controls just as much as they enjoyed DMC.
We love those guys. We'd love to be able to work with them again someday. But they're under the Microsoft umbrella now, right? [laughs] So we'd have to clear that up with them first."
