The second season of the animated series Devil May Cry, from Adi Shankar and Studio Mir, has premiered on Netflix. All eight episodes of the sequel are available for viewing, focusing on the confrontation between Dante and Vergil against the backdrop of a brewing war between humans and demons. Johnny Yong Bosch (Dante), Robbie Daymond (Vergil), and Scout Taylor-Compton (Lady) returned to voice the main characters.
The season's rating on aggregators has not yet been formed, but the first reviews from the Western press were generally positive. IGN rated the sequel 8/10 and noted that with the appearance of Vergil, the series became darker and more emotional, and the character himself received strong action scenes and convincing drama.
GamesRadar+ gave the season 3.5/5 and praised the improvements in Dante's portrayal. Overall, critics agree that the sequel feels different in mood but develops the strengths of the first season.
According to rumors, Netflix has already renewed Devil May Cry for a third season, but the streaming service has not yet officially confirmed this.
