Capcom announced Devil May Cry 2 will launch for the Nintendo Switch via the eShop on September 19.

Here is an overview of the game:

Dance with the devil once again.

Set some time after the events of Devil May Cry, this sequel adds even more moves to Dante’s arsenal and brings it to the next level of stylishness. Use the wall run to get the vantage point on your enemies, then assault them with a spinning barrage of bullets using Rain Storm. Reprise your role as Dante, or play as the new femme fatale, Lucia, who prefers deadly throwing daggers to bullets and utilizes her speed with ninja-like reflexes. Build up your Devil Trigger gauge, then transform into a powerful demon with enhanced power and speed. While in demon form, Dante and Lucia can also utilize Devil Hearts—amulets that give them special powers like the ability to fly, super speed or even slowing down time.

Devil May Cry 2 also introduces the unlockable bonus mode, Bloody Palace – where players can earn Red Orbs while trying to clear wave after wave of enemies.

Releasing it one at a time... What are they thinking, that Switch owners are easy saps who will buy anything?

That's Capcom for you - they'll milk a franchise as much as possible.

I'm sure capcum will sell it for a great price too.... for them. I really hate capcom. Atleast they havent said, this is a test to see if theres a market on switch... if you dont buy it, we wont bring more games, kind of bullshit. Zero effort, overpriced, and maximum profit no matter how many copies they sell. It probably took a team of 3 to make this lazy release.
