- Netflix has not yet renewed Devil May Cry Season 2.
- Adi Shankar has previously revealed that he has a multi-season vision for the franchise.
Netflix’s Devil May Cry turns out to be another feather on Adi Shankar’s hat. It’s been a day since the anime arrived on the streaming platform, but it has already impressed critics and worldwide audiences alike. The anime sits with an 8.1 rating on IMDb, and 92% (Critics) and 80% (audience) on Rotten Tomatoes. So, obviously, fans wonder if Devil May Cry 2025 can get a potential Season 2. Here’s all you need to know about Devil May Cry Season 2.
Is Devil May Cry Season 2 Happening?
Netflix hasn’t yet announced Devil May Cry Season 2, and to be honest, it’s a bit early to expect anything regarding a new season from the streaming service. Netflix never renews a series without checking on a few things: viewership, reception, and watch hours. So, even though the reception of the first season of anime calls for a big yes so far, we must wait for Netflix to analyze the aforementioned aspects for a couple of weeks.
Talking about Adi Shankar’s vision, we can say that the showrunner just needs a thumbs-up from Netflix, and he will be good to go with another season of DMC. He once revealed in an interview that he has a plan to create multi-seasons for the Netflix reboot project. To be precise, he wants DMC to see a fate similar to Castlevania.
The first Castlevania series was released in July 2017, but the streaming giant didn’t renew it until September 2017. So, in that case, we must be patient and wait for Netflix to make an official announcement for DMC Season 2. If viewership numbers grow in the coming weeks, we might hear a big announcement in a month or two.
Devil May Cry Season 1 Cliffhanger Ending Sets Up Season 2
Following the death of the White Rabbit in DMC Season 1, when Dante and Mary think that the evil has been eradicated, a known entity emerges from the shadows. Initially, in his demonic form, he asks the demons to show gratitude towards Mundus as he frees them from the prison. After that, he reveals his true form, leaving every fan in shock; he’s none other than Vergil.
After witnessing their mother and Vergil falling prey to the demon attack, Dante believed both of them to be dead. However, he learns about Vergil’s survival while clashing with the White Rabbit in Season 1.
The Devil May Cry Season 2 will certainly see the brothers clash. Despite having a demon’s blood in his body, Dante is a pure human, but Vergil has turned the opposite after growing up in Makai. Mundus might also enter the game, and we may also get to see glimpses of Sparda in flashbacks.
