The Devil Hunter Edition packages the full 2019 original alongside the <strong>Vergil playable character DLC<\/strong> \u2014 making all four of the game&#8217;s distinct combat styles available from the start. The roster breaks down like this:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Nero<\/strong> \u2014 the young devil hunter who swaps out mechanical Devil Breaker arms for wild offensive options<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dante<\/strong> \u2014 the franchise&#8217;s legendary demon-slaying icon, mixing swordplay with a rotating arsenal of absurd weapons<\/li>\n<li><strong>V<\/strong> \u2014 a summoner-style fighter who commands three familiars rather than fighting directly<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vergil<\/strong> \u2014 Dante&#8217;s ice-cold rival, added as DLC post-launch and now included here as standard<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On top of the character roster, the edition includes costume colour options, extra taunts, and additional battle tracks \u2014 the kind of extras that might have cost you separately on other platforms.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/dmc5-switch2-characters.jpg?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition characters on Nintendo Switch 2\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption>Image courtesy of Capcom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Switch 2 Performance<\/h2>\n<p>Capcom built DMC5 on their proprietary <strong>RE Engine<\/strong>, and the Switch 2 version targets <strong>60fps in both TV mode and handheld mode<\/strong>. For a game built around the feel of its combo system \u2014 where every hit needs to register cleanly and stylish-rank momentum matters \u2014 that consistent frame rate is the right call. The Vergil DLC in particular demands precision, and a locked 60fps gives you the headroom to chase SSS rankings without the hardware fighting you.<\/p>\n<h2>Pricing and Availability<\/h2>\n<p>The digital version is available from today on the Nintendo Switch 2 eShop. In the US, Capcom launched it at a promotional price of <strong>US$29.99<\/strong>, stepping up to the standard US$39.99 after 31 July 2026. Singapore pricing may differ slightly \u2014 check the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendo.com\/sg\/games\/detail.html?id=70010000113880\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nintendo SG eShop page<\/a> for the exact local figure. A physical edition is scheduled for <strong>28 August 2026<\/strong>, though physical availability in Singapore is to be confirmed.<\/p>\n<h2>Plus: A Devil May Cry Animated Season 3 Is on the Way<\/h2>\n<p>Capcom confirmed alongside the Switch 2 announcement that a <strong>third \u2014 and final \u2014 season of the Devil May Cry animated series<\/strong> is coming to Netflix. The show has built a real audience: Season 1 pulled 21.7 million views in 2025, and Season 2 opened to 6.4 million views in its first two weeks after launching in May 2026, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capcom.co.jp\/ir\/english\/news\/html\/260610b.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to Capcom<\/a>. Season 3 will serve as the concluding chapter. No premiere date has been announced yet.<\/p>\n<h2>Last Words<\/h2>\n<p>For Singapore fans who picked up a Switch 2 at launch, this is one of the better early-library additions \u2014 a proper Capcom action game, complete edition, running at the frame rate the combat system demands. Whether you missed DMC5 back in 2019 or want to revisit it with Vergil&#8217;s moveset unlocked from the start, the timing works. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendo.com\/sg\/games\/detail.html?id=70010000113880\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Singapore eShop listing is live now<\/a>. And if you are already a fan of the animated series, mark your calendar for whenever Netflix announces a Season 3 date \u2014 the <a href=\"\/blog\/category\/game-news\/\">full gaming news<\/a> on that one is still coming.<\/p>\n<p><!--GT-SCOUT source=\"Web (English)\" theme=\"Video games\" flags=\"physical SG availability to be confirmed; SGD digital price to be confirmed on eShop\"--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Devil May Cry 5: Devil Hunter Edition lands on Nintendo Switch 2 today with 60fps, all four playable characters, and the Vergil DLC included.
