Netflix Unveils Devil May Cry Anime's Opening Trailer, Featuring Limp Bizkit and a Multi-Season Vision
Following the announcement of its premiere date, Netflix dropped the opening trailer for its upcoming Devil May Cry anime adaptation. Set to Limp Bizkit's iconic "Rollin'," the trailer showcases dynamic action sequences featuring a young Dante, Lady, and the enigmatic White Rabbit, peppered with nods to the game series.
Showrunner Adi Shankar elaborated on his vision for the anime's future. He explained that the series, set in the late 90s and early 2000s, utilizes a soundtrack reflective of that era, featuring Limp Bizkit and other period-appropriate tracks alongside a synthwave reimagining of the game's soundtrack by Power Glove.
Shankar hinted at a multi-season arc, stating that future seasons will boast distinct visual styles and soundtracks to highlight the diversity within the Devil May Cry game franchise.
Plot specifics remain under wraps, but the first season is anticipated to adapt elements from the Devil May Cry 3 manga, Code 1: Dante, centering on a young Dante investigating a child's disappearance, forcing him to confront his father Sparda's legacy.
The eight-episode first season premieres April 3, 2025.
