Just a few days prior to the launch of its official website, the first hard gameplay info on the next PS3 Devil May Cry has finally reached our ears, from the highly-respected Japanese mag, Famitsu.
According to the mag, the fourth Devil May Cry will take place between the first and second series entries and have you playing not as Dante, but DMC1 demon-man Nero, who - going by the mag screenshots - looks like a bit like an angsty version of our old hero.
Play mechanics are said to be familiar, although you can now use Nero's right arm to perform "devil actions", an ability apparently not possible on the PS2. Further more, the article reveals that Yuji Shimomura will once again be returning to direct the game's cut-scenes, and everything will play out in a silky-smooth 60 fps - and indeed, DMC4 is looking gorgeous in the mag shots.
That's all we have to offer at the moment, although we're sure more info - and hopefully screens - will surface when the official DMC4 website opens its doors on Friday. Oh, and we've included a new high-res teaser trailer to the right to get your fangs itching.
