During 2018`s Game Awards, a new trailer for Devil May Cry 5 showcased the game`s cameo system. Capcom has revealed further details about the new system and how people will be able to use it to play co-op in the upcoming game.Devil May Cry 5 features a single-player campaign told through the eyes of three different protagonists: Dante, Nero, and V. At certain points in the story, these characters cross paths with one another. If you play Devil May Cry 5 online, when another character runs into whomever you`re controlling, you`ll be meeting another player. In some cases, this might just be seeing a player-controlled character run by in the background of the level. However, in some cases, you and another player will be fighting side-by-side and performing combos off of each other in the same battle. This will only happen in instances where it makes sense based on what`s happening in the story, though.Capcom wants to ensure Devil May Cry 5 is still a single-player experience, so you won`t encounter downtime or long loading screens if the game can`t find another person for you to connect with. In cases where there are no other players to connect to--or you play offline--the game will use `ghost data gameplay recordings of the development team instead,` writes Capcom in a blog post. After encountering another person, the game will ask you to rate the other player. Players with good rankings will unlock `useful rewards.`Devil May Cry 5 is the first mainline item in the series since 2008. Three playable characters and the cameo system aren`t the only new additions that the game is bringing to the franchise, as Devil May Cry 5 features updated weapon systems and combat mechanics as well. There are a surprising number of callbacks to previous games in the franchise though, and Devil May Cry 5 continues the series` sense of style, action, and combo-heavy fights. We`ve compiled everything we know about the new game if you want to catch up on anything.Launching for Xbox On ...
