Capcom had something special to show off regarding Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition for the Nintendo Switch. As rumored, it’s getting Free Style mode.
Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition is now available to pre-purchase via the Nintendo Switch eShop.
Keep it Stylish with #DevilMayCry 3 Special Edition’s new Free Style mode for the #NintendoSwitch version!
Free Style Mode
Devil May Cry 3 was the first in the series to introduce the Style System, allowing you to pick between 6 different styles (4 to start, and 2 unlocked later) at the start of each Mission or at a Divinity Statue. The Style System was kicked into high gear in Devil May Cry 4, which introduced dynamic Style Switching during combat with a click of each of the d-pad buttons.
Since we know DMC3 Special Edition holds a special place in everyone’s hearts, we set out to make it even extra SSSpecial this time around, and borrowed that new trick from DMC4.
Style Switching in DMC3 Special Edition (Nintendo Switch) will work just like you’d expect. Press UP for Trickster, DOWN for Royal Guard, LEFT for Gunslinger and RIGHT for Swordmaster. For the special styles unlocked later in the game, it’ll require a quick double-tap of specific buttons. For Doppelganger, double-tap LEFT, and for Quicksilver, double-tap RIGHT.
Leveling up the main 4 styles is also akin to the original DMC3 release, but with the added advantage that you can work on leveling up multiple styles almost simultaneously!
Pretty neat, right?
And friendly reminder to keep January 30th and February 13th marked on your calendars for the next extra feature reveals.
