Devil May Cry 5’s Bloody Palace Mode Release Date, First Screenshots Revealed

We have already heard about Devil May Cry 5’s previously-announced Bloody Palace mode, but the free content update has finally been officially detailed by Capcom with an imminent release date on April 1st. The title launched on March 8th to a very positive reception and this forthcoming update can certainly give players a little bit more to do in the game while it’s still hot.

In case you missed the first report on this content update, Bloody Palace is a mode that has appeared in earlier installments of the Devil May Cry series and pits you up against waves of increasingly difficult enemies and bosses while racing against the clock. This version will allow you to choose from each of the game’s main playable characters, Dante, Nero, or V, as you fight through multiple levels of enemies and put your stylish skills to the test. Check out some screenshots of the Bloody Palace mode below.

No further content updates have been detailed at this time and there may not be any more on the way if recent reports are any indication. Capcom producer Matt Walker was asked by a fan on Twitter if there was any other new content planned apart from Bloody Palace, to which he responded that nothing more is in the plans at this time. However, that fact could certainly change at some point in the future, but we’ll be sure to keep you posted either way.

Devil May Cry 5 is available now on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
