I’m excited to share that Devil May Cry is coming back for a third season on Netflix! This season will actually wrap up the entire story based on the video games, bringing the animated adaptation to a close.
The game Devil May Cry, based on the popular Capcom series, centers around Dante (voiced by Johnny Yong Bosch), a demon hunter who battles terrifying enemies from another world.
Adi Shankar, the creator of Castlevania, is also the driving force behind this new adaptation. While critics have mostly praised it, some video game fans are upset by the changes made to the original story.
Shankar explained in a statement that the show was planned to end after three seasons, comparing its overall arc to “Dante’s Divine Comedy, but with action and a distinctive red coat.”

He clarified that Season 1 was called ‘Inferno,’ Season 2 was ‘Purgatorio,’ and Season 3 will be ‘Paradiso.’ He also revealed that ‘The Force Edge Saga’ was always intended to be a movie trilogy, but presented in a television format.
Shankar celebrated the contract renewal on his X account by calling himself a uniquely skilled performer and a master of attracting viewers. He claimed he can boost the popularity of major brands and even influence how the platform’s algorithm works.
He explained that he wanted to demonstrate video game adaptations didn’t need to be soulless, mass-produced projects created by people with no real connection to the original games. And he felt he’d succeeded.
I heard Shankar mention one final point – Season 3 isn’t going to follow the usual TV season format. He’s actually building something completely new with it, a kind of roadmap or strategy for how to actually win the game.
The voice cast of Devil May Cry includes Scout Taylor-Compton, known for her role in Nashville, Robbie Daymond from The Mighty Nein, and Graham McTavish, famous for his work in Outlander.
Shankar is working on turning popular games like PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) and Duke Nukem into new experiences, and these projects could happen after he finishes the new Devil May Cry game.
