By purchasing the "Maniax Pack," players will be able to selet "New Game ~Maniax~" from the title screen, which changes every scene in which Raidou Kuzunoha would appear to Dante, as well as the title screen loop movie and logo to Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne Maniax. The remaster also adds a "Pierce effect" to Dante's skill "Son's Oath."

Beat me by seconds! :P

My title would've been better:

SMT III Noctune HD will feature Dante from Devil May Cry as DLC

 

[Fat4all]

we eatin', y'all​

 

[魑魅魍魎]

Well now you have my attention.

 

[kadotsu]

I hope the DLC will alter the Switch menu icon

 

[Theworld]

I fear the price.

 

[Ridley327]

I wonder if they rebalanced him to give him Pierce, since he's a literal permanent waste of a slot otherwise. Still, it's hard to argue against his inclusion since it means everyone gets what they want in the end.

I hope they remaster this badge too.

 

[Deleted member 36578]

Yay!!!!!!!!! My team returns!!!!!

 

[CONCHOBAR]

Wow, that's great news. So then this version will have both Dante and Raidou?

 

[Xaszatm]

But will the All New Funky Mode be added?

 

[Absoludacrous]

Holy shit. So does he replace Raidou or does the DLC somehow incorporate both of them into the same playthrough?

I took Dante all the way dude. Permanent main stay on the team.

 

[Lant_War]

Awesome of Capcom to do, even if it's DLC. I hope it's still included on the cover.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Fuck yes

 

[Hero of Legend]

It's only 980 yen ($10) it seems.

 

[JEH]

Does this increase Dante (from the Devil May Cry Series) chances in Smash?

 

[sredgrin]

Seems pretty lame to want to charge for DLC for something that was in the original release.

 

[mrmickfran]

YESSSSS

It might just drop him into your compendium.

Late

 

[Odeko]

SAVED

 

[Lord Fanny]

Oh, that's cool. I like Raidou better in that spot just because he's better to use in late game and makes more sense in the world, but Dante is a neat little crossover.

 

[ezekial45]

so this game has Raido AND Dante?

 

[ichigoww]

I hope someone makes an edit of

adding "as DLC" somewhere

 

[makonero]

Awesome!

Fuck yes. Now the game is perfect.

They probably had to relicense him from Capcom. He was removed in the last version of the game years ago.

a touch steep, but a quality man demands a quality price

I'm not happy about it, but I'll pay. I gotta get the band back together.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I'm so glad this got confirmed. It was all I wanted when the remaster was announced. Would've been cooler of have it included but whatever, I will pay for my boy Dante.

 

[Aeana]

The DLC is via a "new game -maniax-" setting so you have to commit to him from the start.

 

[Amauri14]

Hopefully, they will include Knuckles too.

 

[Xenosaga]

Cool he is coming out but 980 yen (around $10?) for a DLC of a PS2 Remaster seems a bit too high imo...

Capcom has to get paid for use of their IP, as necessary as a cosmetic.

 

[Ridley327]

Click to shrink...

Yeah, I'm guessing he's just a demon you can summon once purchased. Otherwise, I'm not sure he can really get put back into the story since Raidou takes all of his scenes.

 

[weaK_willO]

I guess the versions of the game that don't have Raidou will get Dante by default.

Featuring Dante tax

 

[DanteSparda504]

And just like that, I am interested again

Voice acted?

 

[Hero of Legend]

I expected more for some reason. It's obvious Capcom wouldn't have done it for free, but for god knows what reason I pictured $20 to "do the impossible" here. I dunno.

He wasn't in the original release in japan.

 

[Phoenixazure]

Would the game potentially have both Raidou and Dante then?

 

[MegaXZero]

Can't believe they are charging for him lmao... Wait I can easily believe this since it's Atlus.

 

[Deleted member 63122]

I'll bet that license from Capcom wasn't cheap. Seeing this, I wonder how much Capcom would license him to Nintendo with music and a stage. Maybe this means no Dante for Smash.
