Japanese retailer SuperGroupies will release a line of clothing items inspired by Devil May Cry 5. Each protagonist (excluding Vergil) will have a bag or pair of shoes based on them. These items have been discreetly and stylishly designed to encapsulate the essence of each character. Pre-orders are open until December 7, 2020 and are expected to ship at the beginning of April 2021. [Thanks, Famitsu!]
The first line of items is inspired by Nero. As you can see below, these incorporate the details and textures found in his jacket. This includes a quilted pattern that can be found on the top and bottom of the back. This Devil May Cry 5 inspired bag will cost ¥15,800(roughly $150).
The shoes that will be released as part of Nero’s collection draw heavy inspiration from the shoes he wears in game. Similar to the backpack, the shoes have a quilted pattern around the top of the shoe. This shoe will cost ¥19,000 (about $180).
As mentioned above, SuperGroupies will be releasing items inspired by each of the protagonists of the Devil May Cry 5, so naturally the collection will honor Dante. While not as discreet as the bag inspired by Nero, Dante’s bag is a bright red with some black detailing. This bag will cost ¥15,800 (roughly $150).
While inspired by the shoes Dante wears in Devil May Cry 5, the shoes’ design is a little more discreet. It still looks like the pair of stylish motorcycle boots seen in Devil May Cry 5, but this design is a little more “down to earth.” The Devil May Cry 5 SuperGroupies Dante boot will cost ¥19,000 (about $180).
And lastly, two clothing items will be based on V as well. Both the bag and shoe inspired by V are black and carry motifs synonymous with the mysterious young man. However, the shoes for V aren’t sandals. Instead, SuperGroupies has created a boot inspired by the newest protagonist in the Devil May Cry series. The bag will cost ¥15,800 (around $150) and the shoes will cost ¥19,000 (about $180).
Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition is immediately available on the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 for Australia, Japan, North America, and South Korea and on November 19, 2020, in other regions. Devil May Cry 5 is immediately available on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, and the Vergil DLC will appear for those versions on December 15, 2020.
